The iPhone GPS apps continue to evolve with new features and improvements thanks to Aira Tech Corp. The improvements in this release are only the beginning of what is yet to come.

Warning: Before you install the update, share your user points of interest with your email; otherwise, they will be deleted from the app. You can then click on the attachment of the email on your phone to import them into the new version.

*What's New in Version 3.6*

1. Improved Address and POI searches. Implemented Smart Search fields on the Address and POI search screens to minimize the need for entering information. Now you can enter the entire search in one search field and the app offers suggested matches, so there is no need to type the whole address or POI name.

2. Added automatic announcement for heading changes over 50 degrees. The default is set to announce Under 15 MPH.

3. Beta feature: Added automatic announcement for street changes after you have traveled 50 feet or 15 meters on the new street. Since this is an experimental feature aimed at pedestrian use only, the default is set to OFF. If you choose to enable this feature within Lookaround settings, we ask that you provide feedback to iphone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:iphone@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> about your experience.

4. View restaurant menus on Foursquare POIs. If the POI has a menu stored in the database, the app will link to it.

5. Updated the LoudSteps and Ningo SDK. You can use Loud Steps and Ningo for indoor wayfinding in buildings where location positioning is available.

6. Removed 1-year subscription option and reduced the price of the 30 days subscription to $5.99.

Countries and regions available as of 2019:

USA, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Canada, UK, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Argentina and Israel.
