I love this app
I have loved this ab since it came out so many years ago. It’s one of the few, if not the only app I know of that allows clockface instructions. Which are really the only directions I’m really good at.
Unfortunately in iOS 27 I’m noticing some weird issues with the buttons at the top of the screen, the tools, the other button that’s actually what the labels is with voiceover. They’re not opening or working so I wanted to let you know because this app is too good to have those not working. I’ve tried this with iOS 27 and iOS 27.2 beta which is what I’m currently on. Thank you for all you do.

First of all, I thank you giving 5 stars even when the app fails :) I have found the source of the problem and fix is under away.
Used to be good, now cannot access things
Edit, in response to dev: The navigation is fine, however, this, too is not working. I cannot select things, including the "Tools" or the "Other" next to it, as well as the "Plan a rout". VO will not activate any of these, despite double-tapping. All these are separate.
Original review: I used to use this app several years ago, and then, I could access all the settings and such, track places, plan routes... Now... less so. Double-tapping "tools", "other", and "plan a rout" don't do anything. There's more buttons that aren't working, as well. I asked for a refund from Apple, got it, gave it a month, saw there was an update, re-purchased it, and now am going to have to request a refund again, and I don't know if they'll approve.

Ok, now I understand. This was due to some changes in iOS 27. I have done fixes and next version will certainly bring these features back.

Doesn’t work the way it once did
This was my go to app for blind travel and it was always a five star app but something has changed and I can no longer give it the recommendation that I once did. I have used this app for many years but it does not seem to provide as much information about my surroundings as it did. What has changed? Also, I’ve noted that people talk about the cost of this app. I have never paid for it and there are no charges to download it in the App Store. Am I getting reduced functionality because I don’t pay? Why is this? I’m looking for answers from the developer.
