Well, was not meaning as a no choice thing I was saying as an option! Another
words you could have your choice to have then in real-time using data or if you
choose you could download them. You would have your choice. Now to download
them might be a cost to that don’t know there. But just to have the option if
you want to do it that way. If there is a cost to it could be a in app perches.
So if you don’t want to have it on your device the maps you would not have to
have it that way it would be your choice! JMT!

While I see the appeal of having maps locally, if I remember right the GPS maps
at least for the BrailleNote take up like 2 GB of space. Personally I don't
want Seeing Eye maps taking up that much space on my phone since I only have a
16 gb phone to begin with. Personally I use Seeing Eye more when I travel than
around here, and if I only download my state's map then whenever I travel to
another state I have to remember to download that app.

Well, the main thing as of now is turn by turn direction within the app. I
cannot speak to the new name your own landmark/poi yet till the new update is
out for the public and I get it and try it out. So to me the big advantage is
turn by turn within the app so far. Now if the Seeing Eye was to offer the
ability to download the maps like Navigant that would be a plus as well. Then
you would not have to use data.

What do you see as the advantage of Seeing Eye over BlindSquare?

Well, I am glad and hope they work like I think they will as I live way out in
the country and what I navigate by mostly is landmarks/POI that I create and
then create a rout to them. If it does work like I want it to then SE (Seeing
Eye will become my main GPS and BSQ (Blind Square ) will become my 2nd and then
Navigant 3rd and Maps my 4th.

I'm glad the points of interest that we can add will be coming. I always
thought this feature would be necessary to be able to go to a bus stop you're
not real familiar with because you might make it to the destination with
directions from the app, if the stop is midblock, knowing which poll to wait at
could be difficult if there aren't other landmarks near the bus stop. It seems
that there are more of these stops in my area that aren't at a street corner,
and I've been afraid of not being able to find them when it comes time to get
the bus back towards home.

Ok, the new Seeing eye 2.0 is in the app store? I assume the one with the
personal landmarks/POI's ? This is great someone let me know please when it is
released from the app store so I can do the one month trial version and if I
like it will get the full paid version for 299 bucks I think it is.

Listers,

We have submitted the apps to Apple. If all goes smoothly, the release could
happen in a week or so. They can reject for small reasons so cross our fingers
that this does not happen.

I will keep you posted. The final step is when they alert us that the app is
pending. At that point, it will be out in a day. I can't wait to have you try
out the new User POI recording. It is really fun and useful.
