No, Lazarillo and Good Maps are not the same.
Neither one has been discontinued.
GoodMaps Outdoors bought Seeing Eye GPS, so Seeing Eye GPS is no more, it is
now GoodMaps Outdoors.

Hi, Group.
Is Lazarillo Same As GoodMaps? Which one is discontinued?
Can I find any tutorials on GoodMaps somewhere?
Thanks!

Hello everyone,
The Blind Tech Guys will be going live shortly on YouTube to discuss
GoodMaps for Android. We will evaluate the one for iOS on a future podcast,

Amny, my understanding from them is that nearby explorer will be free to
everyone from now on. So, eventually the paid version will not be updated,
just the free one. Not exactly sure when that will take affect.
