GoodMaps Explore for iPhone

Discover the world with GoodMaps Explore

GoodMaps Explore is a free iPhone app developed by GoodMaps Inc in the Travel & Navigation category. It provides accurate indoor and outdoor information and navigation specifically designed for people who are blind or visually impaired.

With GoodMaps Explore, users can receive on-demand and automatic updates about their immediate surroundings. The app offers customizable location notifications that provide a snapshot of the user's current location, including current direction, nearest room, street, and points of interest (POIs). Users can also keep track of specific POIs and customize the frequency of location notifications based on their preferences.

The app allows users to save their favorite POIs and easily set them as destinations. Favorited POIs and preferences are automatically saved, so users don't have to worry about losing them.

GoodMaps Explore also offers accurate indoor routing for independent travel. Users can follow mapped indoor venues to reach their destinations. Additionally, the app features LookAround, a direction-based discovery tool that allows users to discover nearby POIs by pointing their phone in a specific direction. The app will announce the POIs in order of proximity.

Virtual Mode is another useful feature of GoodMaps Explore. Users can set their position outdoors to a specific POI and explore its surroundings virtually. The app also integrates with Be My Eyes to provide live visual assistance.

GoodMaps Explore is easy to use, with accessible tutorials to help users get started quickly. It allows users to search for POIs both indoors and outdoors, locate nearby intersections, and sign in to access restricted buildings with proper access. The app also mentions that new features requiring an account will be coming soon, encouraging users to sign up on the More Tab.

Please note that the availability of indoor and outdoor information may vary based on location.
