Sounds like you had the phone's orientation reversed from what it expected.

  Subject: Took Blindsquare for its first walkaround. Some significant 
misinformation. Insights?


  Hi,

   

  Using an iPhone 5 with latest iOS and Blindsquare.

   

  Took a loop around my neighborhood tonight. I love the directional 
information, intersection information, and approximate street address 
information.

   

  There were at least 3 POI announcements that were quite wrong.

   

  The first told me it was 60 feet at 5 o'clock; in reality, it was about 2 
blocks at 7 o'clock.

   

  Another was announced as 70 feet at 2 o'clock; in reality, it was 2 blocks at 
9 o'clock.

   

  Another was announced as 80 feet at 7 o'clock; in reality it was about 2 ½ 
blocks at 2 o'clock.

  Is there a calibration or something I may have missed? But, again, all 
announced directional information was correct, as were intersections announced 
and approximate street addresses.

   

  One other question. I like the several announcements of "you have walked x 
miles in y minutes." Is there a way to have such announcements repeated? I 
missed the last one because someone was talking to me, and I was interested how 
far I had walked in what time during this loop.

   

  Thanks in advance. Keith
