Indigo Nav6.2.0 - App Store

Indigo is a fully accessible turn-by-turn GPS app.
It has all the outdoor navigation features you expect plus unique offerings you cannot get
anywhere else including extra verbosity for blind users.
Features:
Four main tabs are easy to access at the bottom of the screen.
Routes, Location, POIs and settings

Indigo has the option to explore POIs or route turning points virtually.

Transit Routes can be created and nearby transit stops will be announced.

A unique Indigo feature: record a route using breadcrumbs called Waypoints. No other accessible
app has this. You can add these waypoints with the Add Button or you can shake the phone to
create a waypoint. It also automatically records a point after you have gone a certain distance.
These waypoint routes can be saved for future use.

The LookAround Wand in the upper right corner tells you what is in the direction your phone is
pointing. The More Info button on the Location screen gives the altitude and speed.

Create your own POIs and share your POIs with others or keep them private with a shortcut on
the Location page or from the POIs page. POI categories are announced with search results and
make finding your destination easier.
Audio tones and vibrations give feedback throughout the app letting you know about upcoming
turns, critical intersection information and when search is loading

A robust route menu includes multiple methods of choosing a destination starting with a POI
and an address from your contact list, your route history and many more.

Settings include many customization options like vibrations, vision contrast, color settings and
distance units.

There are announcement options like right/left, clockface, or both.

There are several improvements in Indigo under the hood in addition to the following new
features:

You now have a choice of Google Places for Points of Interest. Foursquare POIs is the default.
You can change to Google POIs in the Settings LookAround menu.

In addition to calling Aira for visual assistance, you now have the option to call a Be My Eyes
volunteer. These buttons are at the top of the Routes screen. When Indigo gets you near your
final destination, you have both services for visual assistance to pinpoint your destination.

Location, intersection and turn-around announcements have been improved. You will get one
intersection announcement when approaching an intersection and another when you are near it.
You can shake the phone to trigger the Location screen announcements.

You can “favorite” a point of interest by flicking up on the action list. You also have “set as
Virtual Position” and Activate in this action list. There is now a Favorite POIs category where
these favorites can be found. Tap on Favorite to add it to the list.

When you create a User point of interest, the city where you are located is automatically added
to that User POI name.

A few reminders:
You can find the Indigo User Guide and Audio Tutorial in English and Spanish at
http://www.APH.org/Indigo under the downloads section. Links in English are also under Indigo
Settings, Help in the app.

You can launch Indigo routes using Siri. It is essential to use exact language in your prompt
based on the Siri Configuration under Settings. Important! If you check your Settings Siri
Configuration and the shortcuts refer to GoodMaps Outdoors, remove those old versions , close
and reopen Indigo and check that the shortcuts now say Indigo.

The shortcut to create a User POI is to double tap and hold with one finger on the Location
screen Info button.

The shortcut to generate a full list of nearby POIs in all categories is double tap and hold with
one finger on the POI Tab.

Bug fixes and performance improvements:

1. Added a Call Aira Agent button on the location and active route screens. The Aira app can connect you with a trained professional agent to provide instant access to visual information. This can be especially helpful in situations if you have become disoriented while on route or where GPS can't assist, such as locating the front door, the elevator, or products in a store.

2. Added POI category: Aira Access Points. You can search nearby POIs that have Aira's free service Access Points.

3. Aira Access Point automatic detection and notification. Now when you approach one of Aira's free Access Points, you will receive a notification. If you already have the Aira app installed on your phone and activate that notification, it will automatically load so that you can call an Aira agent. If you do not have the Aira app installed, you will be redirected to the App Store to download the Aira app. After creating a guest account, you will enjoy free assistance from the Aira agents at locations with Aira Access Points. If you find that you do not want these notifications, you can turn this off in General Settings under the heading Notifications.

4. Fixed issues with User POI keyboard and headset button controls. The main issue was with the app opening when the play/pause button is pressed on the a Bluetooth headset.

5. Updated Google Maps SDK. 3.7 07/10/2019 The Seeing Eye GPS XT continues to evolve with new features and improvements thanks to Aira Tech Corp. The improvements in this release are only the beginning of what is yet to come.

Bug fixes and performance improvements
1. Improved Address and POI searches. Implemented Smart Search fields on the Address and POI search screens to minimize the need for entering information. Now you can enter the entire search in one search field and the app offers suggested matches, so there is no need to type the whole address or POI name.

2. Added automatic announcement for heading changes over 50 degrees. The default is set to announce Under 15 MPH.

3. Beta feature: Added automatic announcement for street changes after you have traveled 50 feet or 15 meters on the new street. Since this is an experimental feature aimed at pedestrian use only, the default is set to OFF. If you choose to enable this feature within Lookaround settings, we ask that you provide feedback to iPh-one@senderogroup.com about your experience.

4. View restaurant menus on Foursquare POIs. If the POI has a menu stored in the database, the app will link to it.

5. Updated indoor navigation SDKs for LoudSteps and Ningo. 3.6 02/27/2019 Added a new source of POIs, OpenStreetMaps POIs.
Changed the "beacons" button to "indoor" to reflect the variety of indoor wayfinding support available.
Offering Loud Steps and Ningo for indoor wayfinding in buildings where location positioning is available.
Loud Steps is a WiFi based indoor wayfinding system, which allows for turn-by-turn directions. Available building are San Francisco Lighthouse, Envision (Wichita), Chicago Lighthouse, Merchandise Mart and 1871 Chicago in Chicago, National Federation of the Blind (Baltimore), and other international locations. Stay tuned for more buildings as they are added.
Ningo is an open source beacon database consisting of thousands of beacons. When you load Ningo for the first time, you will see a list of all the available beacons in your vicinity. Don't worry if your list is blank for now. We are regularly adding to it and have an online interface to make it easy for anyone to add more beacons. See https://ningo-api.herokuapp.com/ for information on how to become a contributor. The Ningo database includes the OSM indoor beacons. You can create a "getting warmer" route to any of the beacons listed.
Updated Ningo and Loud Steps SDK.
Serbian translation. 3.5 09/21/2018 While this release has multiple bug fixes for the LookAround mode, it also brings significant changes to one of the app's POI sources. We have been using the Google Maps and POIs without limitation for over four years now. This has been a great gift from Google, one which we have come to count on. However, Google recently announced a price change effective June 11, that caused us to remove Google POIs from our apps.
Current users of the app, it is imperative that you update to the latest version to make sure the app continues to function properly. 3.4 05/28/2018 Minor bug fixes 3.3.1 04/19/2018 Upgraded User Interface underlying platform to Swift to ensure for future compatibility. 3.3 04/14/2018 Minor bug fixes. 3.2.3 12/28/2017 Improved Spanish translation. 3.2.2 12/18/2017 Minor bug fixes. 3.2.1 12/08/2017 1.
