Hi, In Blind Square you can adjust how early you want to hear an intersection. You can set it to short medium or long. The default is medium.

It provides more information without you having to touch your screen. The seeing ehe app will announce streets, but only when you arrive at them, where as blindsquare will announce approaching streets from a distance. Also, blindsquare will frequently announce your current address and how far you have traveled. It doesn't have turn by turn directions the way the seeing eye app does but you can use other apps for that. Hmmmm, maybe I should do a pod cast comparing those 2 apps.
