I am enjoying this application

I am enjoying this application, only one problem is that I am using this on an iPad and it’s not giving me intersection data while I am walking like it supposed to do.
But it gives me intersection data while I am in a vehicle. but I am glad I got this because for a while I wasn’t able to download soundscapes on this is definitely better than soundscape.

Great app, cannot use Apple Watch with VoiceVista

The iPhone VoiceVista app really works wonderfully well. The only issue I have is that when I open the same app on my Apple Watch I get the following air. I watch communication mode not enabled. So I am not able to use this app at all through the Apple Watch I will have to pull the iPhone out whenever I need to activate the buttons. Is there anything I can do to change this? I have a series 8 GPS 45 aluminum watch. It has the latest firmware. My iPhone 12 has the latest firmware as well thank you

Thanks for the feedback. There was a bug of watchOS app in version 1.4.5. Would you please try to upgrade to version 1.4.6?

Thank you for resurrecting a Soundscape like app :-)

I don’t know what I would do without VoiceVista although I still find Soundscape to have been more intuitive. This is an awesome app, but creating roots is still not very clear to me nor do I understand the difference between waypoint and breadcrumbs and wish there was an edit field, where I could further describe the waypoint as I could in Soundscape. What are breadcrumbs and how different are they from markers, beacons, waypoints?
