About GetThere GPS nav for blind APK
Table Of Contents
Description
GetThere is designed specifically for blind and visually-impaired users. It is not an adaptation of something that was originally designed for sighted people.GetThere does not display a map, but tells you where you are and how to get to your destination. Navigational guidance automatically talks to you before and after every intersection. At any time, you can ask GetThere to tell you where you are, simply by shaking your mobile device.
GetThere detects when you have gone off from the planned route, and tells you where you went wrong and what you need to do to get back on track.
If you are not navigating to a destination, GetThere tells you the street you are on, the nearest cross-streets, the distance to the next intersection, and a full description of even unusually-shaped intersections.
You can set an "alarm" on a location, so that GetThere tells you when you are getting close to the location. This feature is especially useful for helping you know when to get off a bus.
GetThere can optionally tell you the nearest street address to your current location, if you have a cellular connection.
GetThere is a conversational app. It gives you the choice of using speech recognition or the touchscreen, for entering text.
GetThere can be used on a Wi-Fi-only device. Most of the functionality does not require an Internet connection. Users of cellular devices will enjoy additional features and convenience.
GetThere is easy to use. It uses only basic touchscreen interactions, but not any complicated multi-part gestures.
GetThere offers navigation in most countries in the world, based on coverage from OpenStreetMap.
Current languages: Arabic, Chinese, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Hebrew, Italian, Macedonian, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Spanish, and Swedish.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
