Oko - Maps, Navigation and GPS ١٢+

Game Changer

I love that this app can help me cross a street at the right time! I’m currently in training to learn to walk confidently and independently safely as a visually impaired person with albinism and crossing streets alone has never been something I was fond of or still am. My O&M instructor has been a very good teacher and I have successfully crossed streets and finished routes without too much of an issue, though there has been one or two times I’ve crossed when it actually wasn’t my time and having this app to let me know the signal has allowed me to cross at the right time more easily.

Response to devs: I don’t know why, but I’m up to date and the app keeps telling me Maps is not available in my region. I’m in the United States in Iowa, so I don’t know if that has something to do with it but I also am not seeing any settings button like there used to be to adjust things like seeing the camera have view.

Second response to devs: My phone must have just not activated the new update right away because I went back in after writing my last response and now maps is working and the redesign is there.

I appreciate it that y’all take the time to respond to reviews! Few devs do that.

Our Maps should be available across the whole US. Could you send a quick message to feedback@ayes.ai so we can solve your issue?


Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Good that you gained confidence in crossing the street with Oko. If you update to the latest version you will get access to our new Maps feature. You can get turn by turn directions, intersection announcements and when in navigation mode you can raise the iPhone to start the camera to look for pedestrian signals. Feel free to reach out to feedback@ayes.ai

All the best

Fantastic application for blind and low vision users

I wanted something like this for a long time. Since I can’t see the crossing signals, I would typically use my Magnifier app to locate and magnify the signal so I can see it and then when it’s safe to cross now, this app picks up the signal well before I reach the curb and let me know what the current state of the crossing signal is when a single changes to walk, I am immediately notified and can proceed across the street as long as the camera can focus on the signal the application quickly communicates changes in the crossing signal.

THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE GAME CHANGER FOR TGE SAFETY OF BLIND AND LOW VISION USERE EVERY WHERE!!!!!!!

Thank you for defending this app.

Delivers what it promises

In a world where many apps try to be all things to all people, OKOh is delightfully simple. It does what it says it does. It accurately and quickly identifies the state of traffic lights. In my experience, it was able to do this from a great distance, which can often be helpful when you are approaching an intersection.

I am very picky when it comes to my apps, and I am usually very quickly disappointed by the trendy and new. In this case, though, I was delighted by my first experience with OKO and it has now become a permanent fixture in my travel toolbox. Great work!
