I hope you find some podcast about those GPS app
I have both of them, but I only use
Ariadne GPS, I don't need the other one any more.
I suggest Ariadne GPS is better that other one.
Hi,
I use both Sendero and ariadne, as between them, they do offer different useful features. In Ariadne you can plot and name your own pois. The app will tell you where it is by giving a clock or compass direction together with the distance to it in metres or yards. The exploring the map feature is very good, giving freedom to track streets and numbers by tracing your finger on the screen.
On the other hand Sendero Has a handy adjustable shake function which gives information when it is shaken. When walking it will naturally be shaken giving really useful info such as nearest cross street and road names etc As you walk. You can adjust how sensitive the shake is in its settings.
Unfortunately, both these apps have been somewhat disabled recently by the new iOS6 Iphone update. This happened because there are no longer Google Maps which these apps rely on to function properly. I still havn’t heard any news from sendero and Ariadne say that an update will be coming in a few days. I therefore urge any vo user, not to upgrade to iOS6 yet, if you hav not done so already and use both Sendero and Ariadne on iOS5 together as they are cheaper than alternative solutions, until at least iOS6 issues have been ironed out..
