Top Pcmac Reviews

Still my first go to app when figuring out where I am and what's around me.

By ,happy ,mom (Pcmac user)

Even though the GPS is not great in my area, this is the first app I open when I get turned around in my town or need to know which train stop I am coming up to. I also used this app extensively to mark my tent and other landmarks on camping trips. This app gave me the option of being far more independent while camping. This is also the best app for identifying both the walking paths and parks along side the cafes and businesses that dot my town. I have 2 complaints. 1 The bluetooth connectivity warning should not open every time that I open the app. Once is enough. 2. The Tracking a location using the clock face or cardinal coordinates takes a lot of practice and concentration. It was very cool once I figured it out.
Great App, But Needs Improvement

By Steelplayer75 (Pcmac user)

I'vb used this app since 2013 and I love it. The biggest problem I've run into is that it reports inaccurate addresses and street names when I make turns. The only correct information it reports for a time is the direction I'm going, and that's how I know what street I'm on. Like someone said in another review, you have to have familiarity with where you are or you'll be totally confused. I live in the San Fernando Valley in the Los Angeles area.
I would switch back from Nearby Explorer

By bobjutzi (Pcmac user)

Blind Square was the first GPS app I started using it and love it. I am totally blind and would switch back to Blind Square if turn-by-turn guidance were added.
A must have

By AngelKM (Pcmac user)

I'm completely blind and love this app works perfect here in Chicago even tells me exactly where the bus stops and train stations are at thank you for creating an app that has given me my independence back I don't know what I would do without this app.
