No contest here, nearby explorer is better, hands down. When you change
direction with nearby explorer, the new direction is automatically
spoken, and the upcoming street is announced as soon as it can be
determined. With the Sendero app, it doesn't speak the approaching

Thanks, I forgot to mention the fact that Nearby Explorer downloads the maps
onto your phone.
That is a huge difference that I completely spaced.
That is a good advantage in case you travel through an area that doesn't have
decent cell coverage. You just need to be able to use a few satellites
of the most densely populated neighborhoods in America.
Multi-story buildings are right up against the sidewalk. GPS aps that
require a continual data connection do not seem as accurate in this
environment as Nearby Explorer that does not use a data connection for
maps.

Hi.
Another difference between Seeing Eye and Nearby Explorer is that you need a
data connection for Seeing Eye because it downloads the maps you’re using.
Nearby Explorer stores all the maps on the iPhone, and this takes up 4 gigs of
storage.
Hope this is helpful.
Have a blessed day

Both Nearby Explorer and Seeing Eye GPS announce streets you are approaching,
granted they use a slightly different method for that, so you could replace the
use of Blind Square with one of those which also then gives you turn-by-turn
directions.

Navigon, Apple maps,
and now Seeing Eye GPS.
Nearby explorer is a turn-by-turn app that also speaks the cross streets and
gives a lot more information that can be customized. I believe its default
settings are way too talkative and distracting.
Someone else may give a very different answer, but I
choose? If you have
to choose between blind square and nearby explorer, for example, which of the
two would you choose and why?
