Software Features and Description

1. It treats transit stops just like favorites and points of interest by announcing their name and relative position as you move, but in addition, transit stops add next vehicle stop time, direction of travel, and route name to the announcements.

2. You may also use the devices position and orientation to obtain additional targeted details such as pointing the end of the device to scan for businesses, even in a moving vehicle, or tilting it vertically to function as a compass, including a listing of streets in the indicated direction.

3. If you do have a data connection, Nearby Explorer supplements the onboard maps with crowd collected points of interest from Foursquare or Google Places.

4. Nearby Explorer works with any device running iOS version 9 or later, but if the device does not contain its own GPS receiver, like most iPads and iPods, you must use an external GPS receiver.

5. (All announcements are optional.) All of this information is shown on the home screen and is available at any time, but typical use is to adjust the level of announcements, then lock the screen and put the device away.

6. Nearby Explorer works by letting you select from several different location related options about what to announce as you move.

7. The onboard maps cover the United States and Canada, and contain millions of points of interest.

8. Nearby Explorer includes a transit feature that provides detailed mass transit schedules for over 100 metropolitan areas in the U.

9. These include both typical items like street name and address and specialized options like approaching streets, intersection configurations, and nearby places and the distance and direction to them.

10. We suggest you consider installing Nearby Explorer Online (the free version of the app), which you will also find in the App Store.

11. The maps are over 4GB in size, so be sure the device you plan to use has enough available space before purchasing.

    By csells12 (Pcmac user)

    Nearby Explorer is a great and wonderful app for the visually impaired and blind users of GPS software. I do not say anything derogatory against Apple but it performs better than the Apple maps.
