With apologies for reposting the below, which I initially appended to a thread about IOS 17.2.1 but I am not sure it registered that prominently. Anyhow, here goes:

Siri is great if you are sighted - but setting up Siri so it can recognize a blind user has been difficult - asking the blind person to say the phrases, just gets siri to recognize the helpers' voice - If anyone has any ideas on how best to mute siri duing the process for getting something like this done- please let me know - there is a blind person wanting very much to use his phone for calling out - its been set for auto answer and speaker for an incoming call

Hello everyone. Happy new year. I was just wondering, are there any good GPS apps specificly for walking to a destination? say for example, a friend's house is within walking distance of my house. Is there an app that could tell me how to get there. If at all possible, I need one that you don't have to pay for or create an account for.

Hi everyone,
This request is addressed in particular to musicians,
I am a guitarist who over the years has used the common Logic and Reaper DAWs, but today I would like to have a more immediate system for recording a song without turning on and configuring a thousand parameters of the DAW every time, also because I don't use these software all the time. days I don't remember by heart all the key combinations for example for reaper, so when I get desperate to record a song, the difficulty of remembering everything makes me not want to record.

Hello, I am wondering if there are any guides or tutorials to help with blind people using the camera. I got the talking goggles app and also have vizwhiz and digiteyes and I find the problem is how do I know where to point the camera or how to position it or whether the lighting is any good. I listened to the podcast for talking goggles for example and it worked very well for the presenter but try it myself, not much luck. It is the same thing with AnonyMouse and digiteyes. I am not sure if there are any tips and tricks. I appreciate any help. Sorry it is so long winded.

Hi,
How do I update the GPS location of an existing POI that is already saved in My Places in Blind Square? I want to add different places from the catogries in blind square to get a general idea when I'm near them and then insert the exact GPS location when I visit them in person for example I want to save the location of different bars and then when I visit them, I can insert the GPS location of where the main entrance is.

Hi All. I was wondering, if Blind Square and Looktel recognizer can be used on iPhone 4.
If so, I may buy them.
The only bummer, is of course, Blind Square is $38.99 and Looktel recognizer is $12.99.
Hmm.
If anyone has any ideas on how to test them on my iPhone 4 before I buy, that'd be good, please contact me off forum.
Thanks.

Hello,
I am just playing around with blind square and learning more about it. I live in an apartment complex with both townhomes and apartments. I am in a townhome. The issue I'm having is blind square is announcing my address as the address of our rental office. Anyone know why this is? Does blind square not play well with apartments?
Thanks.

Hi all,
I bought Blind Square when it first came out last year and think it's a brilliant navigation app. I have read the long list of questions/ comments in the app directory for it and just want to ask a particular question about future updates on the subject of turn-by turn navigation.
I really have a dilema because on the directory discussion there is some talk about a future upgrade that will include turn-by-turn navigation; so what should I do? Should I wait for this to be included in what I believe is version 2.0 or do I buy Navigon British Isles now?

Hi! Is anyone else unable to navigate Blindfold Video after opening it and starting a video? I tried the app switcher workaround, but no go. Thanks!

Is it seal, or ceil? These types of spelling quandaries have been part of my life ever since I can remember. I’ve always considered which of the various very similar ways of spelling a word are the correct ones. At this point, I’m just amazingly tired of doing it.

I am traveling solo for the first time overseas in about a week. I am using Delta.
As I understand it, their wifi service only extends to messaging and nothing else, even if you pay for it.
So, I was wondering which blindness apps, if any, could be used aboard.
For instance, which apps do all their processing offline?
I am looking for the best ways to be the most independent aboard the flights and I figure, if I can use apps, that would further increase this independence.

So, this is probably going to sound ridiculously easy to some folks, but I'm having some trouble passing those things that are going down the street while Case and Dawn are on their way to Case's office. I keep getting hit by them, and, consequently, dying. How do I get past those things? I think it's a timing issue. Either that, or I'm going the wrong way. On which side of me do I want the fountain? Also, I should walk forward only when the sounds have past to the other side of me, right That's what I've been doing?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, I just got blindsquare, and was wondering if when you use the app can yu change the measurements somewhere from kilometers to miles? All of the distances are measured in language used in other countries. for us in the states can we change this?

Hi,
After a recent update to Blindsquare it is continually crashing when the app is started. Only the welcome music is played and the BlindSquare home screen appears briefly and then the app disappears.
App version: 5.30
iOS version: 15.3
iPhone 8
I have deleted and reinstalled the app but the problem persists.
Anyone know how this problem can be resolved?
Thanks,
Tim

Greetings.
A couple of days ago, I was walking in a semi-unfamiliar area so I decided to drag out my trusty BlindSquare GPS. When I approached what I believed would be an intersection, I was hearing no announcement of it from the app. So, I slowed, then stopped, still no announcement. So, I finally did a "nearby intersections" option and it said the intersection was 30 feet from my location. (The accuracy that day was 15 or 16 feet.)

Hello everyone, I try to use blindsquare and often blindsquare announces that a particular shop is on 3 ocklock although I know with 100 percent certainty that it is on 9 o'clock. While it does not matter in the area which I am familiar with it is an inconvenience when I am travelling around an area that I don't know. I have iphone 6 plus nad ios 9.2 and I carry my iphone in a pouch on my belly, where the pouch hangs down from my neck and the iphone can move inside in my pouch, however, I was told that this should not be an issue. I have also orientation locked on my iphone.
