I have started a route in the middle, but, since I am not using Sound Scape 
right now, I cannot tell you what to do. I believe I went to the route and 
double tapped the marker where I wanted to start. 

Just using a marker with out a route is similar to using Ariadne GPS. It will 
constantly tell you the direction and distance to the marker if you have set it 
as a beacon. Obviously you will not have intermediate markers and direction on 
the way. Also, it the constant dinging in your ears drives you nuts, just push 
the stop button on your headphones or whatever you are using and the app will 
only give you the distance to the beacon about every fifty feet or so.

2022-07-19 Thread Thom Spittle
Just to clarify a little bit a route is a string of markers that help you 
navigate to a particular location. If you just have Tim Horton as a marker, you 
can leave the app off and whenever you need the help turn the app on and set 
the beacon which is the audio marker to Tim Horton and it will take you the 
rest of the way. A beacon is simply a marker that is in focus and has the 
sound. If you are not concerned as much about battery life, you can keep the 
app running but silence the audio marker until you get close.

question is it possible to use ms. soundscape to just get to a marker and not have a root to it? or is it possible to have ms soundscape start in the middle of a root?

2022-07-19 Thread michv
Hi all I have been using ms. Soundscape with my apple air pods and I just
set a root to tim hortons from home or ome to tim hortons. I am wondering is
it possible to use sound scape and just go to a marker with out setting a
root to it? Or can you start soundscape in the middle of a root and it will
pick up where you are on that root? For instince let's say that I know haff
of a root but am not shure of the other haff. Would it be possible to pick
up soundscape and start it haff way through a root and it would know where
you were on the root? Many thanks. From Mich.
