Wayne, I have not used it a lot and not for a year or so, but I am pretty sure that Transit Times does give the intersections. I do have the paid version, which I doubt I paid a lot for. That is Transit Times Plus.

The thing is, BlindSquare costs $30 and aside from that one bit of information, I would not use it for any actual traveling. Since I don't often go out and travel on my own, paying $30 for one feature in an app does not seem very worth it to me. If I need driving direction for my wife to use in the car, then I will most often use Google Maps.
