Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method for interactive voice navigation, the method comprising:
providing, by a computing system including one or more processors, audio information including one or more navigation instructions to a user;
determining, by the computing system, a navigation difficulty value associated with the one or more navigation instructions based on one or more navigation difficulty factors;
determining, by the computing system, whether the navigation difficulty value exceeds a predetermined threshold;
in accordance with a determination that the navigation difficulty value exceeds a predetermined threshold, performing, by the computing system, a mitigation action;
activating, by the computing system, an audio sensor associated with the computing system;
collecting, by the computing system using the audio sensor, audio data associated with the user;
determining, by the computing system based on the audio data, whether the audio data is associated with the one or more navigation instructions;
in accordance with a determination that the audio data is associated with the one or more navigation instructions, determining, by the computing system, a context-appropriate audio response; and
providing, by the computing system, the context-appropriate audio response to the user.
