I first played with that app, I seemed to figure it out enough to use it. But the last time, or so, I either didn’t know if things changed or I forgot how and I was disappointed. But I’ll tell you about another app I think I would recommend more as it describes more specific colors and shapes. It’s called Eye Music, that’s e,y,e, music. You’re trained to understand which of a few musical instruments represent what color. You can learn one color at a time, and you listen to shapes based on the pitch and other nuances of each instrument’ sounds. Once you thoroughly get the hang of it, you’re supposed to be able to identify the blend of colored more complicated shapes, and you can use it to take photos or real-time video of objects in your environment, kind of like Voice Vision does. they claim that a woman, blind from birth, was able to pick out a red apple for the first time in her life. As far as I know, it’s free, so there's nothing to lose by trying it. The only drawback I know is that the conversion of video or photographs to that audio is slower than Voice vision. Otherwise I like it so far. You should be able to find it on: applevis.com <http://applevis.com/>
