Hmm, I've never had an issue where it suddenly stops reporting, but I have
seen it where the nearest POI is not what it's telling me it is, though in
my case said POI is about 50 feet away, usually this happens where there are
a large number of pois around.

Subject: [gps-talkusers] Trying to resolve some issues with Seeing Eye GPs

Hello all,
I am trying to figure out some issues I seem to have consistently when using
the Seeing Eye gps app on my iPhone 6 running the current version of iOs. My
carrier for information is Verizon. Here are the issues I notice:

While either walking or riding in a vehicle such as a bus, the app will
begin reporting information, then (of course the moment I need such
information as an intersection to get off the bus) it will stop reporting.
Shaking the app gives incorrect reporting of previous information with the
accuracy given as 16 feet.
I also have noted that on numerous occasions either street intersections are
falsely reported, or the nearest POI is something that is nowhere near my
area.

I have reinstalled the app at least once, my phone of course is updated to
the latest iOs software. It is in an ottorbox case but I would not think
that should make a difference.

The thing that makes me think this is app related is that I can use blind
square and obtain the correct information.

Any thoughts appreciated, sorry for the length of this post.
