Description:

BlindSquare is a pioneering accessible navigation solution that is revolutionizing the way blind individuals navigate both indoors and outdoors. Developed in collaboration with blind individuals and extensively field tested, BlindSquare combines the latest technology to provide a comprehensive solution for the blind community.
To get started with BlindSquare, all you need is an iPhone or iPad. Additionally, BlindSquare supports a range of additional accessories that can further enhance the user experience.
This innovative solution utilizes GPS and compass technology to accurately locate users. By gathering information from FourSquare about the surrounding environment, BlindSquare employs unique algorithms to determine the most relevant information and delivers it to users through high-quality speech synthesis.
With BlindSquare, users have the ability to control the app through voice commands, making it even more convenient and user-friendly. However, it's important to note that the Voice Command feature is a premium service that requires the purchase of credits for continuous use, available as an in-app purchase on the App Store.
Using BlindSquare as a GPS solution provides users with real-time information about nearby places and street crossings. By adjusting the radius, users can customize their search area of interest. Furthermore, BlindSquare allows users to search for specific places or categories, enabling them to perform various tasks such as obtaining contact information, accessing social media feeds or menus, making phone calls, tracking locations, and utilizing turn-by-turn navigation with popular navigators like TomTom, Navigon, or Apple Maps.
BlindSquare also adapts to different modes of transportation, such as car, bus, or train travel. It provides timely reports on interesting places in front of users, such as upcoming stops or street crossings.
In addition to its GPS functionality, BlindSquare serves as a seamless Foursquare client for those who enjoy using the platform. It offers features such as obtaining a list of nearby FourSquare venues, checking in at locations by shaking the device, leaving comments and sharing on social media, and correcting the location of a place.
BlindSquare is available in multiple languages, catering to a wide user base around the world. It also supports VoiceOver usage and utilizes high-quality speech synthesis from Acapela Text-To-Speech by Acapela Group.
For detailed instructions on how to use BlindSquare, users can refer to the user guide and frequently asked questions provided on the official BlindSquare website.
It's important to note that BlindSquare relies on real-time data from services like Foursquare and Open Street Map. Therefore, it is highly recommended to have a flat-rate data plan to ensure a seamless experience.
Although BlindSquare has only been released since May 2012, it has already received recognition and accolades within the industry. It has been awarded prestigious prizes and awards such as the GSMA Global Mobile Awards 2013 for Best Mobile Health Product or Service, Apps4Finland 2012, OpenCities App Challenge 2012, and Best Product 2012 by The Finnish Information Processing Association.
To use BlindSquare, users must have an active iCloud account as it is required for saving settings and places across multiple devices.
As with any app that utilizes GPS in the background, it's important to note that continued use of GPS can significantly impact battery life.
