What apps do you use for navigation on Apple devices?
Back to Mobile devices#1 cyrmax
As the subject says, my question is that: what navigation-related apps do you use on IPhone or other Apple devices as a blind person?
On Android there are lots of them: Osmand, DotWalker, GetThere, Nearby Explorer, Lazarillo, Google Maps.
Also, in Russia we use Yandex Maps but as I know Yandex Maps do not work well in Europe or USA.
Of course on IPhone there are also Google Maps and Apple Maps. But are there any other usable applications?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Folks.
I use the Feelspace Navi Belt with its companion App on the iPhone. Seldom saw a better Product for enhancing navigational skills and improving mobility.

Voice wista works good, apple maps as well. But you hve to have any headphones, if you want to use voice vista.

hmm, how? You wouldn't hear if something is on the left or right side.
Or am I wrong? What's the difference between this app and voice vista?

The only difference is the interface. I use only the audio beakon, so I don't need headphones. The problem is that when I wear headphones, I can't hear my soroundings. I only have over er headphones which are not usable, and I don't want to get knocked down by a car.

I guess bone conducted headphones are only a good solution.

I know, but I don't have one. I can't buy one because my parents say that they are dangerous.

#13 techboy

#14 Jokyboy129
I think he means Voice Vista.
#15 techboy
yes i know is it good
#16 Jokyboy129
It is quit a good app, but I don't like the interface. I prefer Soundscape Community which does exactly the same, because they're all made with the Microsoft Soundscape OpenSource code.
