Hi 
I have downloaded ariadne.  Can you give some basics of how I select a 
destination for example and do I have to do anything to make it say road names 
and house numbers?
thanks 
Mark Bishop

  Does for me, used it many times.  Also used it on the bus and got feedback 
continually on which street the bus had turned into and what speed the bus was 
travelling at...

    Hi.  I have used that app and it doesn't announce street names when the 
monitor is switched on.

      Oh Many thanks Kevin, that does sound like the sort of thing I want.


      I’ve never used a GPS system before, but what you have described sounds 
like what I am looking for.

      Hi Sharon.


      I think Ariadne is a great little app for less than £2.  It can tell you 
where you are and you can then tap on the start monitor button which will then 
announce each street that you walk or that you cross.  It will also announce 
door numbers and postcodes as you pass.  It works equally well on foot or on 
public transport.


      Regards.

        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
