I am so looking forward to be able to use this app for indoor navigation I m currently using Planet Fitness and it would be awesome to know where all the different equipment is more easily than the way I have to do it now                     Best app to use for navigation visionoftouch

I m not sure what the point is to paying 39 99 for an app which no customer support exists The app is difficult to navigate and prompts many questions I contacted the developers prior to purchase and received NO RESPONSE I then tried contacting them via Twitter and received NO RESPONSE despite the fact they were active on Twitter Lack of response and non existent customer service service is pretty useless unprofessional and frustrating         No Customer Support Marilyn Monopoly

I purchased this application about a year ago This app is wonderful in terms of navigation However this app does not provide navigation like other GPS such as Apple Maps Though it is extremely helpful navigation                     Perfect app Khan222222

cI use this app for off road hiking and tracking my fitness walking statistics I can find single tree in the woods after marking it in my places This is a very good tool for any blind person who wishes to go off road It is a great value compared to other accessible navigation apps                     Great app @Fredwurtzel

This app is very user friendly if your blind and it s very affordable I would recommend it for anyone                     Great app Love it Very easy to use and affordable Livininseattle

I love this app Really helps me feel that I know where I am traveling Makes me very aware of my surroundings                     Awesome app S LB 123

This app is fantastic I m a blind college freshman and blind square helps me navigate the campus My independent traveling has become much more reliable lol                     Lifesaver Heavenwarrior

First the English documentation is poorly organized and obviously poorly translated from something else It s hard to use given this quality of documentation Next the quality of the map data is rather poor they use Open Street Map but perhaps should have used freely available Google map data There s no way to submit any map data corrections It s helpful but hard to learn and hard to use             Needs work TallyChip

I really enjoy using this app It has enabled me to become more independent I use this app simultaneously with Google maps for the turn by turn directions and it is very helpful I prefer BlindSquare for the look around information compared to Seeing Eye GPS If you can implement intersection analysis that would makeBlindSquare eveven better                     Awesome app Subbinblazer

Thanks to this app I no longer rely on others to tell me what s around me I found more restaurants to eat at and businesses to shop at Love it Well worth 30                     Love this app Erendyda

Great app Keep it up                     Fantastic mstermagoo

I absolutely love this app I would give it 10 stars if I could do so This app helps me every day and I want to see more continuous work being done to make it even better than it is now Thank you for such a wonderful app                     This app deserves all five stars Brandon armstrong

I ve been using BlindSquare for a couple months now with the teacher and now all of a sudden I love blind square it is so awesome smile thank you blind square for being invented for people who have low vision or no cited all             My review Little snack cake

This app adds a whole new dimension to traveling They also have excellent and timely tech support Larry                     It s a whole new dimension to traveling LCfish

Genius concept marrying Foursquare and OpenMaps to solve a critical problem for the blind                     Amazing Tech Solution androidgeewhiz

BlindSquare is not only a powerful navigational tool that is fully nonvisually accessible it is a platform that allows optimal user control over the content effectively placing the blind user in the driver s seat Its great for tinckerers if the imagination can go there the developers want to know about it so they can take it there Its also great for the minimalist just tell me where I am and where I m going and I m good to go                     BlindSquare Charmed in Baltimore

I ve used BlindSquare for around a year I m getting better and better at using Simulate Location and My Places to build my mental map of intersections and points of interest where I plan to be While I m walking or riding I mostly use my Braille Sense with app sounds turned off iPhone muted and volumes set to 0 I find BlindSquare very difficult to use in this fashion so Ariadne GPS is my main where am I app and I love exporting places from BlindSquare to Ariadne GPS In other GPS apps I can make the braille display tolerably stable while I m moving but in BlindSquare I have a hard time reading and navigating the screen using my Braille Sense unless my GPS location is stable At some point I ll get into the place check in feature but I m still mounting the smartphone mentality learning curve                 Simulate Location is invaluable JDD_Apper

Nice job on this app                     Love it Jose Lomeli

This is the best GPS app for blind and visually impaired persons The cost is more than reasonable given the number and variety of features available to blind travelers                     Blind Square List Talker

Thank you very much from the bottom of my beating heart this app makes me more social now I can do anything by myself I can go whatever I want to go I don t need to call my friends and asking them about the directions really it s very very very important for every blind in this world specially with supporting different languages                     I like it more than any GPS app Magicksa

This app works really well for bus travel The buses don t talk where I live and it s easy to lose track of intersections as you pass them                     Great for bus travel Guide Dragon

This app is very helpful and well designed                     Excellent App Laughingthunder

I even recommend it to those who can see and want to get a layout of their surroundings while driving or multitasking I love using this app when I m in a taxi or with someone else Try it it has great features for those who can t see or are really lazy                     You have to try this app it s awesome Ricardo_Elias

I can not thank this developer enough                     This app is amazing Laila36

Thank you for the app It really works very well I plan to use it on all my travels                     Love the app puppya

I am revising my previous review which was more critical As of the recent updates I would highly recommend others who are visually impaired purchase and use this app for their travel needs While this does not provide turn by turn type directions as of this writing the location data pedometer and other useful features make it one of my most used apps Also the developer is very polite and responds promptly to any feedback                     I used to dislike this app but love it now doggrowl

I think this app can beat other more expensive paid solutions out there This is definitely the best blindness have navigation app on iOS Definitely my favorite                     This app is awesome AUSTINGRACE

This app really helps you get around I love that it tells you where everything is and where it s located Also it has different voices from which to choose from and different languages as well I certainly give this app an A It is worth every penny I paid for                     Love this app Gliding_swan

This app continues to be the best blind GPS app for iOS It seriously keeps getting better My only criticism is the organization is too compacted and can be fairly confusing to new converts I hear this has already been taken to heart and will be fixed in later releases Still an absolute must have for those with a visual disability                     The Best bluecansam

This is propably the best GPS app for the blind I have seen I can t tell you how many times this app in conjuncion with Google Maps has gotten me out of tough situations with bus and cab drivers not knowing where they are going to my apartment what not This app did much better then the piece of crap tomtom gps they were ising ahahah Thank you so much and keep up the good work                     Wonderful GPS App audioracer

A very helpful and wonderful application It works very well and helps me navigate wherever I need to go As a blind user it is really a wonderful help Keep the good work up A wonderful tool Very much appreciated Thank you for all the hard work and love and care you put into this app                     DDobler D Dobler

Good support Intuitive interface Many languages and descriptive voices                     Works in malls dogs see for me

I have been planning to write a review on this app for quite some time now From the very beginning it has been and remains an excellent app which only gets better Being that I m still on IOS 5 1 I had a problem which resulted in the program crashing which I am pleased to report was patched by the Dev who was very responsive                     Excellent App And Support Blinky X

It s my favorite navigation app developers always improving the ap dramatically Thank you so much for the great efferts                     I love it so much Love freedom12345

This app is amazing I bought it before moving back to Northwest Portland I ve been blind my entire life and the one thing that often bugs me about cane travel is needing to keep the running mental narrative of what street I m at Everyone knows your mind wanders you re thinking about something else work the kids even just something you passed by BlindTquare alleviates this problem But but but There s more I moved back into a neighborhood I d lived in before But one thing about being blind you miss a lot just generally running around I was amazed at what I found just turning on a couple of options and having it tell me what I passed BlindSquare is a great addition to the iOS ecosystem and I for one am really impressed I haven t tried turn by turn because I grew up on these streets and so I know the place and the addressing system like the back of my hand Yet even for it to tell me bus streetcar and train stops is amazing I haven t lived here since before we had access to iOS and now it s as though Portland just got a brand new look all because of BlindSquare and the iPhone                     Ipressive Life changing App Dave Leo Baker

This is a great app when it works I like the flexibility of ways to be able to search and I also like that you can add filters so that you don t have to hear about things that you don t have any interest in I had an experience of traveling to another city where I had never been before and while I was there it was nice to be able to hear things like street names addresses and other types of information That people who can see often fail to tell me My only disappointment with the app is that there are some plazas where the location information that they give you is not correct I have had experiences of going into a place that I know and BlindSquare still telling me that the place is 100 feet away I go to this plaza often at least once a week so I know the information was incorrect I have contacted the developer about this and the person explained to me that they use their maps from outside sources I had gone into their tools menu and try to set the location manually The action was excepted but BlindSquare still insisted that I was not in the place where I knew I was I realize this is out of their hands I also realize that living in a small city we re not as likely to be updated as bigger cities with more people I think this would be a good tool but I still think there s a lot to be said for knowing your orientation and mobility The Thought behind the app is a great idea and I will still continue to use it for where I can I look forward to future updates that may help fix this problem                 My review of BlindSquare Julieroc40

Well I been looking for a decent application for GPS navigation I ve had a lot of them but this is the best one out there Especially when you re on a city bus and the automated announcement system is not working This is CVS number of times Will read out your intersections as your past If you want it will also read out the points of interest that you were passing And of course you can specify the radius and what you want to search for interest You and if you want to search for individual interest points you can do that All of this is supported So what more can you want Perhaps turn by turn directions Well maybe this coming up in the new version However I can t say enough about this application I highly recommend it                     This app is amazing I cannot recommend it enough Erikguy7

Best gps app I ve used Walking it is most accurate Needs a little work on bus or by vehicle in my experience                     Great app rebecca hesselmeyer

This is probably the most comprehensive GPS app for the iPhone that I have found I would however like a way to review the stuff that is mentioned by the TTS engine For example if I m passing a point of interest and it tells me what it is I would like to be able to hear it again or review it with VoiceOver I value your contribution to the blind community and look forward to future versions of this software Thanks a lot                 Great app well worth the purchase rspangl3

While this is not a turn by turn GPS solution but it does offer is some of the best features for situational awareness Most people already know those main routes that one takes however this app helps fills in the blanks when learning about your environment                     Best navigation app for the visually impaired timthorn

Awesome app developer My Guide Dog I love the real time data We feel more plugge in with our surroundings                     Incredible Kyle Kiper

This is by far the best GPS system I ve used it let s me know when I m coming to an intersection so I know that some I just feel so much safer using this product I need love the simulation mode I love everything about it I definitely recommend it to everyone I am visually impaired and can travel without it I don t know what else to say but it s worth the money                     Best GPS Blind chef

This program is awesome I was surprised to find venues for restaurants where they are available I found this true even for a restaurant that I had had trouble getting it in an accessible for Also it is very easy to use to find busstops because each intersection is announced Also it connects well with my GPS which gives turn by turn announcements by sending it coordinates                     Blind Chick Blind Chick
