BlindSquare
BlindSquare speaks nearby place and crossing information using location, compass and supported map data.
Consider as an additional orientation aid for blind or low-vision users.
Search, distance announcements and speech controls support exploring places without relying only on the screen.
Keep in mind: It does not establish obstacle detection or guaranteed safe travel; real-time sources, external navigation services and location accuracy have practical limits.
