Ariadne GPS is the iPhone app that helps blind and low vision people find their way: know where you are, explore the area and get alerts as you walk.

What Ariadne does

  • Where am I: tells you the street, number and area you are in.
  • Explore the map: move your finger on the screen to hear street names and get a sense of an area, around you or in another city.
  • Monitor: as you walk or travel, it tells you what changes along the way.
  • Favorites: save your places and get an alert as you approach them, with sound, vibration and voice.
