Waymap

Personal and audio-based navigation for everyone who needs help getting to where they want to go. Truly smart and fully automated, Waymap locates you very accurately inside and around buildings and gives you audio instructions when you need them; just like GPS in a car - but without GPS and without the car.

The full functionality of this application is available in Washington DMV area. If you find yourself outside this area, you can still use some basic features of the application to explore the DMV area and journeys, but you will not be able to start any routing or journeys. The journey search feature will not return any journeys outside the DMV area. Please register your interest via the waymap application for it to be available in your region.

Waymap focuses on guiding those with vision impairment in their mobility, though anyone can use and benefit from it. Waymap works in selected regions where we have created the maps and defined the instructions. The routing is calculated as you need it between any two places within a city and you can set preferences for step-free routes. Instructions take account of your step length, and you can set preferences for the style of instructions. Prepare in advance and you can review the entire route before you get there.

For vision impaired users, you'll need headphones to hear the instructions. Waymap gives you the instructions automatically once you have set your journey/route and are on your way. The algorithms inside learn how you walk, and you will need to spend a bit of time setting it up to get the best out of it. Waymap is intended for use with iPhone 8 or newer.

Expect more places and more features over the coming months. We appreciate all feedback. The more you tell us the quicker we can help make the work a more accessible place for everyone.
