Hi Ibrihim,
Sorry don't know how to get your direct e mail address so sticking with
list.
I did not think there was a turn by turn door to door app for the I phone
yet as I understood Sandero or similar were currently creating one.
So my question is if this is the case what is the difference in what Navigon
currently does and the app that people are waiting for from Sandero.
I am just moving to I phone and am looking for the nearest thing to a
replacement for Wayfinder that will tell me turn by turn directions as I am
walking to a destination.
Thanks and hope this makes sense.
Colin

Hi Colin.
Sorry, your statement has me confused. Navigon is a door to door route
navigation application, just like TomTom or Co-pilot. The only difference
being that Navigon is the one that is most accessible in terms of features
for voice over users. If you want to discuss this further, you're welcome
to email me privately and we can get this uncertainty cleared up for you.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrihim,
I understand a turn by turn route finder is not yet available for the i
phone So what does navigon not do if it is door to door. Thanks for the
clarification. Colin

Hi Richard.
Yes, Navigon is a door to door navigation aid and Ariadne tells you where
you are at any time with the push of a button. I also recommend Where Too
or Around Me for additional points of interest.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Thanks Ibrahim, I have just bought Ariadne, so looks as though Navigon is
going to be my next purchase. Seems to run on GPS, if I have understood
that correctly? Richard

Hi Richard.
No, Sendero Look Around just tells you what the streets are called and how
far they are away from you. If I'm being honest its not a tool I find
particularly useful preferring instead Ariadne which gives me much more
timely if less information, but its more relevant if you see what I mean. I
think Look Around is about £5, though I'm not sure off the top of my head.
All the best, Ibrahim.

Hi Ibrahim, Re Sendero Look around, does it indicate the side of the cross
street, and do you know roughly how much it is? Thanks, Richard

Hi David/Sharon.
I'd just add a couple more tools to the mix here, Where too which is an
incredibly powerful points of interest app with dozens of categories and
Sendero Look around, a simple but useful app for getting information about
your current location without too much fuss, including nearest five points
of interests, cross streets and so on. Another app I use is called Navigon
Now, a more efficient way of entering addresses in to Navigon with the
option to copy addresses you have in emails and web pages etc.
All the best, Ibrahim.

The best without doubt for assisting with routes is called Navigon. It is
quite expensive but very accessible. It comes from the Garmin stable, and
they are receptive to comments on accessibility.
Another for familiarisation from your current location is called "around
me".
The third one which I have is Ariadne GPS.
This trio gives a load of information and also good navigation.

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a user friendly type GPS app for my iphone. I want
something to tell me where I am, and something to help me find new places
etc.
I have no sight, so need something that works well with voiceover.
Many thanks.
Sharon
