It is certainly power hungry! Never use it on a longish journey without
taking some sort of charger or you probably won't be able to reverse your
route. I think it is a tad expensive as well compared to the others.
Just my view.

Hi Jackie,
This is because they have built in no concept of power management.
For example, if you put the app into the background, it still
constantly uses GPS instead of sending requests every so often.
All the best
Steve

Hi Ibrahim
Yes, but the RNIB Navigator app really does cane the iPhone battery,
it is much worse than anything else I have seen or used.

Hi John.
Like all apps that use location based services continuously in the
background such as navigation and orientation aids, the battery on
your iPhone will be consumed more rapidly than given normal use.
The RNIB Navigator not only requires the use of location services
but also requires an internet connection, so it is recommended that
you purchase an external battery pack from the likes of Anker or a
form fitting battery backup case for your phone to extend battery life.
All the best, Ibrahim.
