GPS apps and Motion x gps

Hi,
I listened to a podcast and in it a guy, who's name I can't remember showes how to use Navigon, and in another podcast he uses motion x gps.
I downloaded motion X GPS, it was 65 pence, so not much, the only problem i'm having and i'ts a big one, is trying to find a place to download voice guideance.
I have two questions.
1. should i delete this app and try navigone? it's about £25 or I think $40.
And 2. if not, how can i get voice guideance or if someone can't help me with that, what would you recommend as a good GPS app?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, you have most likely downloaded the wrong app.

The app that you probably heard a demonstration of is MotionX GPS Drive, which isn't available in the UK.

MotionX GPS is quite different, and I believe is inaccessible.

Thanks for your help.
It's not a big deal, it was only 65 pence.
It is kind of accessible. But not enough so that a blind person could use it.
hmm so do you think that Navigone UK would be my best option? Or are there GPS apps out there that are just as good but a little cheaper?
I don't mind paying for Navigone but I want to make sure it's works and all that.
Hmm, I'm not really sure what to do.
I don't need a gps app at the moment but I have mobility training so it would be nice to have one.

Hi.
I looked at TomTom.
It's £31 where as Navigone is I think £25 Is there a big difference? And why should I get one over the other?
I mean are there any drawbacks to getting one over the other/
Thanks for this help. it's really helpful.

I don't think you understood what i was asking.
What i ment was, if i bought TomTom and or Navigon, is there a big difference?
Or do you mean that you have to by voice guidance for Navigone?
Thanks
