I believe that Ariadne uses Apple Maps. There were some problems reported with 
Ariadne when Apple switched to their own maps when IOS 6 came along.

Hi Maria,

 

I just wrote to supp...@blindsquare.com with a couple of questions and since I 
just saw your message before I included “Will this app work in Slovakia†. 
If I get an answer I let you know. I am not sure where Ariadne gets its 
information from, but since Blindsquare uses Open Streetmaps maybe it will be 
OK and if anybody here knows if Ariadne and Blindsquare both use Open 
Streetmaps please let us know.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi Sieghard and all,

I was also thinking about buying Blindsquare, but it would cost me about 18 
euros.

It is quite much for me in case it won't work.

I'm saying that because I have purchased Ariadne GPS and it doesn't work in my 
area properly. I find Ariadne useless at the moment.

I cannot just try and purchase an app and see whether it works or not.

Blindsquare is getting more and more expensive. Someone told me she got it for 
14 euros some time ago.

With regards

Maria

  Hello List,

   

  I was thinking of getting BlindSquare even though once Sendero’s Seeing Eye 
app comes out it might become redundant. Anyhow, I for some reason thought it 
was $9.99, but when I just checked on the Apple Store it says it is $19.99. 
While BlindSquare does a bit more than Sendero LookAround, I nonetheless find 
it interesting that I don’t ever remember hearing people complain about the 
price considering the fuss many folks made when Sendero LookAround was released 
and priced at $4.99.

   

  Anyhow, one thing I was wondering is when Blindsquare tells you about 
intersections. Does it announce the cross street just before you get to it? 
Also, Let’s say I get out of a bus and I want to know what the cross streets 
are, will it tell me if the nearest cross street is ahead or behind and would 
it tell you how far away it is?

   

   

  Regards,

  Sieghard

I'm not wearing a diaper, so don't try to change me.
