There is no app that will automatically call out approaching
intersections, but with the Sendero Look Around app, every time you tap
the Look Around button, it will give you your current position,
including closest cross street.

Hello,
I am not trying to go off topic, but since you are talking about a full
GPS 
for the Iphone, I was wondering if there was a product I could use while

traveling in a vehicle like a bus that would tell me the streets or
freeway 
exits as I was approaching them, like Mobile Geo.  I am asking because I

find this helpful, and it's nice to know you are approaching the 
intersection you want and be able to ring the bell to get off where you 
want!  As a mobility instructor and blind traveler that is a great
feeling 
of independence.  Any help you can give is appreciated.



Best regards,
Adam
