Hi guys
I have tried BlindSquare with Navigon, and it works fine. I did try to send
co-ordinates to The Seeing Eye GPS, and BlindSquare didn't recognize it. I
guess because it's new.
I have discovered that I would rather send co-ordinates from BlindSquare than
type the address in to Navigon
Seeing Eye GPS doesn't have API that could be used to connect into it. As
soon it gets one, it will be available also in BlindSquare.
BlindSquare has such API so other apps can connect into it:

In next version there will be even more possibilities, like starting

the Seeing Eye GPS has a definite
advantage in that mode. This is because it will tell you whether a street
crossing goes through or not by saying crossing right and left. That way
you know the street is not a dead-end street which comes in on the one
side.

with it - it might fit the bill, or a cheaper solution like Blindsquare might
work better. How do you plan to use a navigation app, in general? We need more

well i don't think so if blind square sounds more awesome than this.

Isn't the voice guidance $10 a month not just $10? That would mean $120 per
year for turn by turn and the whole set up is not as convenient as having it
all in one app, which is what you get with seeing Eye, which ends up being
cheaper, if my supposition about cost for Motion X is right.

The cost for MotionX voice guidance is $10 per year.

external GPS.

Hi Kawal,
If you have a built-in GPS receiver such as is the case with the iPhone, you
won't need an additional receiver.

If the seeing eye app requires an external gps receiver, wouldn't that defeat
the purpose of using it with modern technologies such as the i-devices? Why
would an app with such pre-release hype tye itself to legacy tech?
There is a commercially available app called waze,
Well you can acquire an external GPS receiver, it is not required and will not
be required.

Not at all. The app will work with gps on phones and cellular-enabled iPads.
You only need a receiver if you have a wifi-only device, and even then the app
won't work right if it does not cache maps locally. Any server-based gps app,
as many of them are, requires a constant data connection to
I doubt it will require an external device. And, the standard bluetooth
GPS receivers do not work with the i devices anyway.

Hi Mike, can you clarify your comment about the external receivers not working
with iDevices?
Obviously the Dual Electronics XGPS and Garmin GLO both work quite nicely with
the iDevices and they are standard units. What did you mean to say?
Thanks a bunch and have a great day!

Wonder how much those receivers are. Are they bluetooth? I have several
bluetooth receivers that do not work, the holux 1000, the qstarz 818,
and the iblue 737. These use mtk chip sets which are quite accurate.
Each receiver costs around $20

The receivers are standard, and Mike, I bet when you bought some or all of
those receivers, they were not 20 bucks. I have an iblue 747, for instance, and
it didn't cost me 20 bucks. I haven't checked the prices of the two that Cara
mentioned lately, but they are bluetooth and they are standard
Here's the thing: to work with iOS, a bluetooth receiver has to be certified by
Apple. Some are, and most aren't which is why some work and some don't. A quick
google search should provide a list of compatible receivers. Again, though, if
the Sendero app does not cache maps, this is all moot
So what were the Sendero group going on when they said you'd have to pay
something for a year or the same for three years?

There is nothing official on that yet. I guess we'll have to wait and see.

The 747 would be a bit more expensive because it also has logging capabilities.

What would be advantages of using a bt GPS receiver vs the built in

I regularly get 13 ft accuracy which is much better than my old 5 but

NOel,
I think you hit the nail on the head. You'd have less battery drain if you used
an external receiver, and you'd theoretically have better accuracy. But you'd
also have to carry an extra little device. And if you're happy with the iPhone
and no extra receiver, and battery drain hasn't been
