Hi Ed. I turned on my route and started walking with the screen locked and got
no info. The use I make of a gps app is to navigate in open areas off the
street map. Our apartment complex is huge with lots of

Hello Larry,
I assume that your sounds are not muted. I believe if the sounds on the phone
are muted. I.e. the switch on the side of the phone is switched to the mute
option the internal voice will not work on the Seeing Eye app. If
Seeing eye does not store maps off line. Blindsquare is much more
automatic, seeing eye will announce the streets when you get to them,
but blindsquare provides more information automatically and I think
it's better than seeing eye at this point.

Hello,
It uses the Google maps. It might have the Canada maps as it does not store
maps off line. It just gets it’s maps info from google or even the Open Street
Maps
And, for the person who wondered about wether any GPS tells you the side of the
street, Seeing Eye GPS does. For example, in Portland Oregon, where I am, we
have lots of streets that eithemake t intersections or jog a ways from where
they cross the intersecting street. So Seeing Eye might say, 3

I may just try the free 30 day trial option again, and see how I like it. One
of the reasons I didn't like it, and this wasn't really the app's fault, was
that it ran super, super slowly on my iPhone 4S. Google Maps and Lyft used to
do this as well, but both of those apps are now running great o

Hi,
You can change the intersection distance from short, medium or long inside the
app setting. I periodicaly shake my phone to check my location to get updates.
Hope that helps.Regards,

I tried Seeing Eye GPS a while back, and while I really did like the
turn-by-turn directions, and especially the intersection analisous, I think
BlindSquare may be a better fit for me. I mostly need something that will tell
me my nearest intersection, like Sendero Lookaround used to do before it
I tried Seeing eye because it was from the company that made my Sendero GPS on
my voice note. I did like it because it was so similar with the turn by turns.
Price wise, I switched to BSQ and have been enjoying it ever since. I use it
with Navagon and it has been a treat. I was told that I can
I too found BlindSquare better for look around features. If the turn by turn
directions of seeing eye gps can be had on blindsquare, it'd be great. I use
blindsquare simotaniously with google maps and i get theinformation i need.

Hello. I just made a comparison between sendero and blindsquare and
blindsquare came out head and shoulders ahead for my needs. I brought up
sendero and got a breadcrumb to my dumpster entered and then routed to it.
I invoked the route and began walking with the screen locked and got not a
