Loadstone GPS is a free navigational application designed to be used with a Bluetooth GPS receiver and a mobile phone using the Series60 platform on the Symbian operating system.
Loadstone GPS was developed to be a low-cost feature-rich navigational assistant for the blind. At this point in time, it is not as powerful as other GPS-Navigation solutions such as those offered by:
- Freedom Scientific: Destinator
- Humanware: Trekker and Braillenote GPS
- Sendero Group: Keysoft GPS software for the Braillenote GPS
- Wayfinder Systems AB: Wayfinder
but we think you will be pleasantly surprised as to how well it works! In fact the core development team relies exclusively on Loadstone as a navigation assistant.
