[Accessibility] A question from a new list member

I've been working on one for years.

As of last September, I almost completely rebooted the project to 
migrate away from the former cloud-based system where the app connected 
to a remote web service for its info, to an entirely on-device app using 
Spatialite. At the moment it automatically announces what street you're 
on, adequately and automatically describes intersections as they are 
approached, and lists nearby POIs/GPS fix data as it changes. Progress 
is slow because testing is hard, but I expect things to speed up once 
I've worked out the narration case (I.e. narrating nearby points, 
current street/path features, etc.)

It's very new, not recommended for casual use, and I'm not even open to 
feedback at this time. But if there's interest in working on such a 
thing (working, not testing or asking for features) then I can make an 
effort to post the sources and document how to build them.
