Hi. I must of been having a bad couple of days with it when I first purchased
the app because it was working well today and it even informed me of certain
landmarks as well as block street addresses. I think I’m going to give this app
a serious run out as you don’t have to keep pressing a certain button to get it
to reveal current position.

Ariadne is not a route planner but more of a where am I app. To have it
announce street names, postcodes and house numbers, you simply double tap on
the start monitor button and then double tap on stop monitor when you're
finished.

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

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
