Okay, so you use apple maps and not google maps?

Forgive me if I'm jumping in late on this thread and already missed the
answer, but what do Seeing Eye GPS and Blind square offer that can't be
accomplished with a mainstream GPS app? I generally just use the apple maps
and get walking directions and I used to use Navigon before apple included
Maps in the IOS. These aren't my favorite solutions but generally work. If
there are features that make these apps better, what are they?

Thanks,
Greg
