>and Rehabilitation Research, we have major feature improvements in the
>Sendero version 3.0 iPhone GPS apps, including Waypoint Routes, new POI user
>interface and Uber compatibility!
>
>Warning: Before you install the update, share your user points of interest
>with your email; otherwise, they will be deleted from the app. You can then
>click on the attachment of the email on your phone to import them into the
>new version.
>
>What's New in Version 3.0
>
>1. Added Waypoint Routes, similar to Manual "Breadcrumb" routes that
>are in our other Sendero GPS products. All you have to do to create a
>Waypoint route is walk the route and the app will save points along the way.
>Waypoint routes are helpful when there are no street maps, as in a park or
>campus.
>
>2. Redesigned the Points of Interest user interface to make searching
>for POIs more streamlined. You can now use the Nearby POI Shortcut Gesture
>(double tap, hold and release on the POIs Menu button) or go to the POI
>Search Screen to search for a specific POI or a POI category. Unless you
>select a category, the search will be in All categories.
>
>3. If a POI search finds no results, in addition to expanding or
>cancelling the search, you can now select switch POI source. Your default
>POI Source will not change if you switch POI Sources for a POI search. You
>can set your default POI Source in General Settings.
>
>4. Added indoor navigation support, Beacons button on the POI screen,
>as part of our current federal grant from the National Institute of
>Disability, Independent Living and Rehabilitation Research. Beacon coverage
>is limited to a few locations in the US, UK, Germany and Turkey. We will be
>working to expand this coverage over the course of the grant, so stay tuned!
>
>5. Added Uber to Route type options. The app will send your location
>and destination to Uber so that you can schedule an Uber ride.
>
>6. Added an additional setting for the Shake sensitivity, you can now
>choose Hard, Medium or Off.
>
>Countries and regions available as of 2017:
>
>USA, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Canada, UK, France, Ireland, New Zealand,
>Australia, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Lithuania, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey
>and Israel.
>
>As always, make the most of your phone's portable convenient functionality
>by using it in conjunction with Sendero Maps on the PC, on the Apex or on
>the Braille Sense to explore and familiarize yourself with an area. Find the
>iPhone apps in the App Store and the other Sendero products at
