ASLEEP AT THE WHEEL? On the negative side (and we all know that the negative types don’t have enough faith to benefit from such technology) critics have counselled caution. Some have drawn attention to the possibility of drivers being “slain in the Spirit” while navigating a particularly busy stretch of road. Travelling with a co-driver may be the answer to this minor problem, but if you both pass out at the same time-what then? Boogle offers its very own “Slain Insurance” policy for such eventuality. You can slip into a trance over (or under) your wheel with complete assurance that all will be well in the end!
INTERPRETER. Others questioning the use of such programs have raised concerns about the potential for minimal comprehension. Imagine, for example, being in the middle of Chicago, cruising down the Interstate at 70 and waiting for that all-important set of directions, only to find that you have no clue what the app is telling you! You could be ten miles down the road, or a hundred, before you realize you’ve missed your off-ramp or even your city. To avoid this inconvenient eventuality, it may be important to take with you on your journey someone with the gift of interpretation.
Ah, says the critic when offered this solution to not understanding what’s being said: you’ll be receiving directions second hand. This means that while you’re waiting for that all-important explanation in your own language from the interpreter, you might already be sailing past the off-ramp or missing a turn at the traffic circle. The “third exit” will then become the sixth or seventh exit, by which time you will both be getting dizzy and irritating the other drivers around you.
However, Boogle has thought of everything! While selecting “Tongues” from the list of language and accent options in your settings menu, you will also be able to select “Translate”. This addition switches off that difficult, incomprehensible babble completely and gives you the incredible benefit of instantly hearing important directions and messages in your own language! This will automatically bypass the confusion and the wait! Selecting this option as default may be the best way to go.
