Hi. I've used that app of late and it's quite good. Problem is that my 4S doesn't give accurate location details time to time and this usually happens within the first 20 minutes of using any GPS app. If you are traveling about on regular routes then you don't really need turn by turn guidence.

Seems to run on GPS, if I have understood that correctly?

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. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Godfrey-McKay Sent: Tuesday, March 20, 2012 1:37 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recommendations for a GPS App for the Iphone Hi Ibrahim, Re Sendero Look around, does it indicate the side of the cross street, and do you know roughly how much it is?

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. -----Original Message----- From: David W Wood (G3YXX) Sent: Monday, March 19, 2012 12:26 PM To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Recommendations for a GPS App for the Iphone Sharon 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.
