Good day to all,
I am puzzled by something that happened last week while I was trying to use the
Seeing eye gps app for a route to a local eatery. Let me say from the outset
that I know where the place is because of what it was previously.
I used the route planning function, searched for the name within the poi
category and picked pedestrian route.
My wife and I began walking to the place using the guidance provided.
Because we knew where it was, we decided to take a shorter route knowing that
the gps would recalculate on the way.
From both the planned route and our own choice, the direction to the
destination required a left turn on to the street where the place was and in
both cases it would have been on the left side, which was the side we were
walking on.
Continuously the gps kept indicating we should turn "right on Delaware Avenue."
Had we followed this route exactly as planned by the gps we would not have
located the destination.
I am using the 4 square maps for poi and I am wondering if this might be the
issue.
Any thoughts appreciated. I'm not sure if the route logs are still available to
be sent along but would be glad to check should that be necessary.
