The app is built for VoiceOver from the ground up: large buttons, clear announcements and vibration instead of looking at a map. COMPASS • Direction by vibration: Candle vibrates when you point your iPhone north or in one of the eight compass directions, and announces it. • Compass to a destination: hold the iPhone in front of you – Candle tells you the direction and distance to your destination. PLACES NEARBY • Explore: cafés, restaurants, pharmacies, ATMs, bus stops, taxi stands, hospitals, public toilets, pedestrian crossings and traffic lights with sound signals – sorted by distance while you walk. • Radar: point your iPhone in a direction and hear which places are there. • Wikipedia: articles about sights around you. YOUR PLACES AND ROUTES • Save favourite places – from your current position or by address search, also by voice. • Walking navigation to saved places, with announcements you choose: detailed or short. • Location notes: leave a hint at a spot, e.g. "stairs after the door" – when you pass it with Candle open, your iPhone vibrates and Candle tells you the hint. Add a new one quickly with a long press on the Candle icon. • Share places as a link and receive them from family and friends. PRIVACY No sign-up, no ads, no tracking. Your places and location notes stay on your device. For maps, places and routes Candle uses open services such as OpenStreetMap. OPEN SOURCE Candle is free and open source: github.com/freegroup/candle Found a bug or have an idea? We welcome feedback – especially from blind and visually impaired users. ## Candle Screenshots - [Screenshot 1](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/52/ae/9c/52ae9c59-eb87-bd65-9221-5dfdec75859d/01_uebersicht.png/1320x2868.png) - [Screenshot 2](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/6b/90/8b/6b908bb3-c11c-8988-8a9c-2533e5735c1d/02_erkunden.png/1320x2868.png) - [Screenshot 3](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource211/v4/fb/18/45/fb1845c3-972c-2a6d-10e0-1c3958a6a56c/03_cafes.png/1320x2868.png) - [Screenshot 4](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/d0/3e/56/d03e5638-7e83-309f-1422-afccaacde705/04_kompass_ziel.png/1320x2868.png) - [Screenshot 5](https://is1-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/PurpleSource221/v4/8f/5e/1c/8f5e1c47-75ad-3d5f-d55b-c2ec4c730276/05_radar.png/1320x2868.png) ## Candle Rating Breakdown in United Kingdom - 5 stars: 0 (0%) - 4 stars: 1 (100%) - 3 stars: 0 (0%) - 2 stars: 0 (0%) - 1 stars: 0 (0%) ## Candle Available In - [United Kingdom](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/united-kingdom) - [Belarus](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/belarus) - [China](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/china) - [Germany](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/germany) - [Estonia](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/estonia) - [Honduras](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/honduras) - [Jamaica](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/jamaica) - [South Korea](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/south-korea) - [Kazakhstan](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/kazakhstan) - [Malaysia](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/malaysia) - [Panama](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/panama) - [Paraguay](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/paraguay) - [Sweden](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/sweden) - [Senegal](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/senegal) - [Tunisia](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/tunisia) - [Uganda](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/uganda) - [United States](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/united-states) - [Venezuela](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/venezuela) - [Armenia](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/armenia) - [Vietnam](https://apptail.io/app/candle-blind-navigation-dvop/vietnam) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
