one thing I find when using apps on the street is I can’t find out exacly where
I am and I don’t get the clock bit either. I also have problems trying to find
out when a bus will come at the bus stop. I wish they’d hurry up and bring the
bluetooth ear bits for the iPhone 7 I keep getting tangled with wires. not
moaning really If you use ariadney what do the number mean and can you set it
up differently so that you just get the street names and what is coming up.

Hi Alison,
Why are they difficult? What would make them easier? They speak the
information you want, and you can even ask them where you are by voice.
I am not being awkward, just asking questions as to how we could make stuff
like that easier.
I use GPS with a Bluetooth headset for example, and although I use Android, I
know that Blindsquare supports control via a Bluetooth headset. You can use
the prev, next, play/pause buttons for example to carry out GPS functions.
All the best
Steve

I think the GPS apps are great for planning a route but incredibly difficult to
use whilst on the move. Recently the Techshare feature really brought this to
home and I realised I wasn’t alone in finding these apps difficult to use on
the move.
Aps like Blind Square and other similar apps could be very useful whilst on
buses or in cars for letting you know where you are however.
