Re: Talking Goggles talking rubbish

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Anna,

Have you tried it on something with a lot of fancy graphics such as the label 
on a can or bottle? That’s where I’m having problems. It used to just read the 
text, but now it seems to prefer to try to interpret the graphics.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Talking Goggles talking rubbish

[Woody Anna Dresner]

Hi,

I used it about a week ago to find out what was happening on a computer screen 
when I had no speech. It took a while, but it did read me what was there. So it 
seems to be functional here.

Best,
Anna

Hello everyone,

Since a recent update, Talking Goggles has started giving me decidedly weird 
information. When trying to check that a bottle contained olive oil, Goggles 
started talking about furniture, cars, and all kinds of other unrelated 
material before it eventually read me some useful text. It seems to be 
interpreting graphics on labels.
My sighted husband looked at the bottle of olive oil and couldn’t figure out

This problem also occurred with a tin of pâtee where Goggles kept talking about

This app used to be really useful and now it’s a waste of time.

Sounds like they bought the same recognition engine off of Facebook.

The continuing progress of bloatware, which will get to the point where it will 
tell you anything and everything, except the bit you 
need.  Even now, 99% of what a computer does, has no real bearing on what 
you're trying to do.  The old DOS did, that was true

Setting it to video is simply the mode, it does not start recording. This is 
what happens when you tap on “Record”, it is just like in the camera app.

Goggles works on my 6S+ using iOs 9.2 but only when it wants to itself. It can 
read some things, but usually the things i want it to read won’t.

Re: Talking goggles

[Julian]

Hello all,

Like a lot of you, I was also having difficulties making the talking goggles 
app work on my iPhone 6s by the way, I am also using the paid version. I tried 
the suggestions that were given hear such as toggling between the still and 
video camera mode as well as turn the flash on and off all to no avail. What 
finally made a difference, was going into the language menu and reselecting the 
language I normally use which is English. Once I did that, everything started 
working as expected. I hope this is something that helps those of you who have 
also not had any luck trying to suggestions given here thus far.

RE: Talking goggles

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Richard,

I theorized that maybe the issue was with the free version. Then I read your 
post saying the free version works fine for you and I replied "OK, I guess that 
answers my question that maybe the issue is with the free version". By this I 
meant "OK, so this proves there is no issue with the free version" hence those 
who can't get it to work must encounter a different issue. It's obvious by now 
that both the free and paid versions work for a bunch of people with various 
models from the 5S to the 6S Plus and all using the latest version of iOS.

Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Talking goggles

I downloaded the free version, it works on my iPhone 6, go figure, just 
backwards from everyone else.

OK, this is weird, I must have paid for Talking goggles, so I have the paid

Hi Richard,

OK, I guess that answers my question that maybe the issue is with the free 
version. You also make a good point about video mode or still camera mode. But 
it really is easy to know what is active since if still camera mode is active, 
the button just above the home button says "Take Picture" and not "Record". If 
it says Record and you double tap it you hear the same metallic beep indicating 
it is recording that you hear when you are in the camera app and you start 
recording video.
Also, for those who can't get it to work, make sure that once you point it at 
something you hold still for a few moments so the camera has time to send what 
it sees, if you continuously wave the phone around it will of course not work.

Regards,
Sieghard

Talking Goggles free works very well on my 5s.
Remember, if the button says "still camera" then you are in video mode and if 
you double tap that button you switch to still camera mode. Leave it in video 
mode, then double tap the record button and you should get good results.

Hi Alan,

 

I don’t know why you, Rose and some others have no luck with Talking Goggles. I 
just redownloaded it on my 5S and it works just fine, if anything I’d say it 
reads more and better than it did last time I used it which was quite some time

Hi Sieghard. 

 

The app I found with the name AIPoly is called AIPoly vision,, is this the

Hope someone can help.

 

I miss a replacement for goggles it does not work anymore.

I just installed AIPoly and it definitely has potential. A nice, simple layout 
and on my 5S it automatically announced what it say after a couple of seconds. 
I was pointing it at various areas in the room I am currently in and it said 
things like “Closet”, “Door”, “Furniture”, “Curtains” etc.

I then held a bottle of generic Tylonol 1 up to it, this is the stuff we can 
get here in Canada that has 8mg of Codeine as well as some Caffeine along with 
whatever the normal Tylonol incredient is and the generic name is 
“acetaminophen” and all AIPoly told me when I showed it various views of the 
bottle was “Pills”, “Medicine” or “prescription”.

I then used Talking Goggles on it in video mode and it read all sorts of stuff 
to me including a lot number, expiry date, the word “acetaminophen”, “8mg 
Codeine” etc. Definitely a lot more useful than “Medicine” or “Pills”.

Re: Talking goggles

I am using a 6+, and it's working just fine. Something I did discover, however, 
is that you need to turn on flash, if you have it off. At least if you wanted 
to recognize some things. I hold a bottle there, and took a picture, it for 
said there was no recognition, when I turn on the flash, it read the bottle. 
Just an idea.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Joney]

After trying AIpoly, I was a little disappointed. I didn't try the object part, 
is that subjective, and how you hold the camera, and where your objects are. 
What you think you're aiming yet, you might not be. However, the color part, 
disappointed me. I had a top on, which I knew was blue with white snowflakes. I 
can understand the color coming back as gray, since the blue-and-white might 
merge at some point but pink? Or purple? I don't think so. Black pants, or 
black coat, came back gray, dark blue, so I was a little disappointed in the 
color. Perhaps I was aiming incorrectly as well. I'm going to try the goggles 
app, and see how it does too.

Re: Ai Poly Versus Talking Goggles

[Monica Jones]

I can see it identifying that coffee cup if you had misplaced it. Perhaps 
you thought you put it on your table, but you forgot that you hadn't moved 
it from the counter. It happens, smile.

Talking Goggles still works for me, particularly when something goes
wrong with my Windows machine and I need to read the screen.  I showed
AI Poly several common objects; it recognized none of them.  I watched
the demo video on the developer's website and was rather annoyed.  Why
would anyone think a blind person needs an app to identify a coffee
cup?  As long as our hands and brains work, we can do that.

Hello,
I haven't tried that, but,  if,  you flick up from the bottom of page 1 to 5, 
you can't bypass, without disabling. As said, though,  haven't tried your

Hello,

but turning off VO, and randomly touching the screen has worked 4 out of 4

RE: Ai Poly Versus Talking Goggles

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Kathy,

I am not sure if the developer meant to imply that we couldn't identify a 
coffee cup when he used this as a demo. After all, all sorts of people on here 
posted that they identified common objects like furniture, keyboards, their own 
face and so on. One would assume you know your own face also and that you know 
a table when you touch one yet people use these things to test the app.

Talking Goggles still works for me, particularly when something goes wrong with 
my Windows machine and I need to read the screen.  I showed AI Poly several 
common objects; it recognized none of them.  I watched the demo video on the 
developer's website and was rather annoyed.  Why would anyone think a blind 
person needs an app to identify a coffee cup?  As long as our hands and brains 
work, we can do that.

The first time through it will ask you, twice in my case, if I wanted to give 
aipoly access to my camera, which of course you want to do. If you don't the 
app won't work. Keith

This is not correct, you can get through the welcome screens of Aipoly and use 
the app just fine without ever disabling Voiceover.
You just do a right to left 3-finger swipe to move through the welcome screens, 
the last swipe when you are on the fifth welcome screen will take you to the 
main screen of the app. You can now double tap the Toggle Aipoly button to 
start and point the iPhone at objects you want to recognize. You may have to 
touch the screen once at the beginning somewhere in the middle to hear the 
result, once focus is on that result/area of the screen it will read 
automatically as you point elsewhere.

RE: Talking goggles

[Sieghard Weitzel]

You can tell Talking Goggles to save still images although I think by default 
it does not. Video recording is done in real-time with nothing getting stored 
on the phone and yes, you do have to stop it, once you tap Record that button 
will turn into a Stop button.

Does the recording sop automatically after a few seconds, or does the operator 
need to tap again to stop recording? Is it necessary to delete the recording 
from the phone, or does it disappear automatically? Thanks, Keith

Hi Richard,

OK, I guess that answers my question that maybe the issue is with the free 
version. You also make a good point about video mode or still camera mode. But 
it really is easy to know what is active since if still camera mode is active, 
the button just above the home button says "Take Picture" and not "Record". If 
it says Record and you double tap it you hear the same metallic beep indicating 
it is recording that you hear when you are in the camera app and you start 
recording video.
Also, for those who can't get it to work, make sure that once you point it at 
something you hold still for a few moments so the camera has time to send what 
it sees, if you continuously wave the phone around it will of course not work.

Regards,
Sieghard

Talking Goggles free works very well on my 5s.
Remember, if the button says "still camera" then you are in video mode and if 
you double tap that button you switch to still camera mode. Leave it in video 
mode, then double tap the record button and you should get good results.

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Are you sure it didn’t say “bald monkey” or “old geezer”? *grin*

I haven’t yet had the courage to try it on my face, afraid it will say 
“Neanderthal”, “ugly kraut” or something like that.

Assuming the “it” you are talking about is AIPoly, did you give it permission 
to use the camera?

If you toggle VoiceOver off while using the app, it speaks with its own voice, 
or rather the iPhone’s own voice.

Otherwise, you have to get the VoiceOver focus on the spot just about the 
toggle AIPoly button so VoiceOver can read the information.

RE: Talking goggles

[Kramlinger, Keith G., M.D.]

Does the recording sop automatically after a few seconds, or does the operator 
need to tap again to stop recording? Is it necessary to delete the recording 
from the phone, or does it disappear automatically? Thanks, Keith

Hi Richard,

OK, I guess that answers my question that maybe the issue is with the free 
version. You also make a good point about video mode or still camera mode. But 
it really is easy to know what is active since if still camera mode is active, 
the button just above the home button says "Take Picture" and not "Record". If 
it says Record and you double tap it you hear the same metallic beep indicating 
it is recording that you hear when you are in the camera app and you start 
recording video.
Also, for those who can't get it to work, make sure that once you point it at 
something you hold still for a few moments so the camera has time to send what 
it sees, if you continuously wave the phone around it will of course not work.

Regards,
Sieghard

Talking Goggles free works very well on my 5s.
Remember, if the button says "still camera" then you are in video mode and if 
you double tap that button you switch to still camera mode. Leave it in video 
mode, then double tap the record button and you should get good results.

Hi Anne,

Since I lost my 6S and I am just waiting for my new phone, a 6S Plus, to 
arrive, I put Talking Goggles back on my 5S and it is working well. I also use 
the paid version and wonder if people who have trouble use the free version and 
if that somehow it the problem?

Alan, what button is it when you say “that button they are talking about”?

That's easy.  I can swip through the information about the app but that button 
their talking about is not there.  I even tried the home button.  All that did 
was to take me out of the app like it should.  I have also uninstalled the app 
and redone loaded from the iTunes Store.  Same result.

Assuming the “it” you are talking about is AIPoly, did you give it permission 
to use the camera?

If you toggle VoiceOver off while using the app, it speaks with its own voice, 
or rather the iPhone’s own voice.

Otherwise, you have to get the VoiceOver focus on the spot just about the 
toggle AIPoly button so VoiceOver can read the information.

Hi Alan,

 

I don’t know why you, Rose and some others have no luck with Talking Goggles. I 
just redownloaded it on my 5S and it works just fine, if anything I’d say it 
reads more and better than it did last time I used it which was quite some time 
ago.

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Kerri,

Talking Goggles was updated in mid August last year so I would say yes, it is 
still being updated although there has been no update since iOS 9 came out, but 
since it seems to work fine there may not be a reason to update it.

I haven't tried VizWiz in a long time and I don't think it's even I the app 
store any more. Last time I tried it maybe a year ago I still had no answer 24 
hours after I submitted a question. I suggest that if you can't get anywhere 
with Camfind, Tap Tap See or Talking Goggles you might want to give "Be my 
Eyes" a try. It is free and it's supposed to connect you to an actual person 
via Facetime in a secure way (they will not see your phone number, where you 
are from etc.) and you can ask them questions and show them whatever you want 
to know about. Crowdvis does the same thing, but I think there is a small 
charge after a few free trial calls.

Regards,
Sieghard

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Krister,

 

With Aipoly you really don’t need much skill. If you can point your iPhone in 
the direction you are looking or pointing and you can hold it more or less 
vertical it will see the object and speak it.

 

I won’t go over all the instructions on how to get through the intro screens of 
Aipoly again since it’s been explained several times now by Pamela, Richard, 
myself and others.

 

Annie, yes, the Object tab is where you want to be for object recognition, the 
colour tab is where you want to be if you want to identify colours. Then all 
you have to do is double tap the “Toggle Aipoly” button, not sure why the 
developers didn’t just label it “Start” or “Start Recognizing”, maybe somebody 
can suggest to them they should change this as it would be more descriptive.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Alan,

 

You do the same 3-finger swipe from left to right you use to switch home pages. 
Once on the last welcome screen you swipe one more time and you are then on the 
main screen of the app. That particular screen is layed out in a simple and 
easy to figure out way with 4 tabs along the bottom: Object, Colour (for colour 
identification), Settings and Info.

Above that there is a “Pencil” button on the right (above Info tab and a 
“Toggle Aipoly” button (sort of above the Settings and Colour tabs).

Right now I have my iPhone 5S laying camera down on a table which means it 
can’t really see anything so it also says on the screen “Point me at an object 
and press the button”.

The “Toggle Aipoly” button is basically your start button, when you first open 
the app you have to double tap on that so it starts “seeing” things.

I now figured out how it reads automatically as well. First when I started it 
it wouldn’t say anything, then I touched the middle of the screen and it said 
“Dresser” because I was pointing I t towards the dresser in the bedroom. I then 
moved it a bit to the left and it then said “Curtains” so it seems that once 
you put focus on the area of the screen where it shows the result of what it 
sees, it will then read automatically if you move the phone and it sees 
something else.

As Richard pointed out, if you turn Voiceover off it will also read what it 
sees with I think the compact voice, but it certainly isn’t necessary to turn 
off Voiceover as long as you put focus on the result once and then don’t touch 
anything else.

It will sometimes also say “Background” or “I’m not sure” if it can’t identify 
what it is seeing.

All in all not a bad start although as I said yesterday, it failed badly when 
it comes to identifying a specific type of medication I showed it, all it said 
was Pills, Medicine or Prescription. I haven’t tried it yet with food items, 
cans and so on, but my guess is that it would just tell you it’s a can. Maybe 
down the road they can make it do more.

Sieghard

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Sieghard Weitzel]

Hi Richard,

 

On my 5S it is reading what is sees automatically and that is with Voiceover on.

 

Alan, can you describe exactly what happens after you open he app? Do you swipe 
through all the intro screens? If so, what does it do when you are on the main 
screen?

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Assuming the “it” you are talking about is AIPoly, did you give it permission 
to use the camera?

If you toggle VoiceOver off while using the app, it speaks with its own voice, 
or rather the iPhone’s own voice.

Otherwise, you have to get the VoiceOver focus on the spot just about the 
toggle AIPoly button so VoiceOver can read the information.

Re: Talking goggles

Talking Goggles free works very well on my 5s.
Remember, if the button says "still camera" then you are in video mode and if 
you double tap that button you switch to still camera mode. Leave it in video 
mode, then double tap the record button and you should get good results.

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Ekstrand, Pamela A. -ND]

Alan,

You have to three-finger swipe left, I believe it's five times, to get through 
the introductory pages.

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Richard Turner]

Assuming the “it” you are talking about is AIPoly, did you give it permission 
to use the camera?

If you toggle VoiceOver off while using the app, it speaks with its own voice, 
or rather the iPhone’s own voice.

Otherwise, you have to get the VoiceOver focus on the spot just about the 
toggle AIPoly button so VoiceOver can read the information.

Re: Talking goggles

[Wayne Merritt]

I have tried the free version of Goggles and have not had much
success. After a few shots the app crashes. Perhaps I will try the
paid version to experience the better recognition. It sounds like that
one is working fine. I have an iPhone 6S with iOS 9.2.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Wayne Merritt]

In AiPoly, in order to hear the descriptions read continuously, you
will have to turn VoiceOver off. This is after you hit the button to
recognize an object. I have had mixed success with it, some things it
gets right and some, well, not so much. It identified a can of diet
soda as lotion, medicine, and a bank note. It is entertaining to
change the setting for object recognition to likelihood and fun, just
to hear what it says even if the object is identified wrong.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

Hello,
Goggles don't work for me, at all. As for the other, open the screen, select 
the items tab, go on the top, there's something that sounds like hit the 
bullet. Either above or below that, if you aim it at an item, it should tell 
you what it is. My hand is skin, the cat is fur, etc.

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Kerri Kosten]

Hi:
I have Goggles on my phone.
Is it still being updated and maintained and everything? Is it still usable?
Should I uninstall Goggles and install Ipolly instead?
I also have VizWiz...is that app still usable?
Thanks!
Kerri

Re: Talking goggles

Hello Annie,

Talking Goggles, the paid version, is still working fine on my iPhone5 running 
the latest iOS. I wonder if anyone is managing to use it with an iPhone5S or 
later.

Cheers,

Re: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

[Krister Ekstrom]

Hi,
I think the whole thing about this is that you have to be skilled in handling 
the camera on the phone or iPad in order for it to work. I have never learned 
to take photos or handle the camera on the phone because i have always thought 
and still think that i as a blind person never am able to take satisfactory 
pictures without a whole truckload of guesswork so i’ve left that bit alone and 
so my results with apps like Goggles and Aipoly is soso at best. Only thing i 
can do is congratulate all those who actually can make it work because i can’t 
but that’s not the programs fault, it’s entirely mine.

Re: Talking goggles

Hi all.

I can not get talking goggles to work anymore, I really miss this app. I like 
the video mode very much, because it recognizes the text on the fly, and it is 
great when you are reading shampoo and stuff like that. I have just tried 
again, but it will not work with my 6s Plus.

RE: Talking Goggles versus AIPoly

I just installed AIPoly and it definitely has potential. A nice, simple layout 
and on my 5S it automatically announced what it say after a couple of seconds. 
I was pointing it at various areas in the room I am currently in and it said 
things like “Closet”, “Door”, “Furniture”, “Curtains” etc.

I then held a bottle of generic Tylonol 1 up to it, this is the stuff we can 
get here in Canada that has 8mg of Codeine as well as some Caffeine along with 
whatever the normal Tylonol incredient is and the generic name is 
“acetaminophen” and all AIPoly told me when I showed it various views of the 
bottle was “Pills”, “Medicine” or “prescription”.

I then used Talking Goggles on it in video mode and it read all sorts of stuff 
to me including a lot number, expiry date, the word “acetaminophen”, “8mg

I've been playing with this app for about 15 minutes, and I am very 
impressed! It recognizes about 85% of the objects  that I pointed it  at. 
Including my guitar, printer, flatscreen TV, and thermostat.


It did think that my cat was a  Labrador however, but the cat wasn't 
offended.

😀
I found that wants it recognizes an object if you leave the focus on the 
text of the object, it will automatically stay there and all you have to 
do is point the camera at different objects and wait a few seconds for it 
to announce what it is.
For a  first version of an app, this is really remarkable. I can't wait to 
see what improvements calm  in the future!

Did you try both sides of your card? Sometimes the card number is printed in 
normal text on the back of the card and sometimes it isn’t.  I’m sure this is a 
long shot but maybe your credit card company can help you out if you call but 
it’s possible that they won’t due to security concerns. Also, maybe your card 
number is on your bill or somewhere if you log into your account online.

Good luck,

RE: Talking goggles

[Rose Combs]

Yes, KNFB is wonderful if you can get the camera right, abysmal when you just 
can't seem to do it.  
I tried it to see if I could read a credit card number for Amazon as they seem 
to have forgotten I was a prime member and that I had a card with them.  No go, 
tried the same card on the scanner on my HP Envy Printer, no go.  Alone so, 
have to wait for eyes to arrive so I can get the info needed.  Usually I do 
that immediately but the card arrived just days after my husband passed, and 
there was so much going on that I forgot all about it.  So far, and I meant to 
have my hair stylist read the info into my phone yesterday we talked about it 
and then both of us forgot about it when I left.  
If there are any other suggestions, I'd appreciate them, I miss using Amazon, 
and Prime, I can use my normal card but would rather not.

Re: Talking goggles

[Richard Turner]

TapTapSee compares photos of object with a database of items and tries to match 
them, if no matches are found, supposedly humans look at it and write a 
description.
Talking Goggles is using ocr in real time. Plus I expect some object matching 
as well. No humans involved as far as I know.

Hello Simon,

Talking Goggles comes in two versions: the free one with ads, and the very
cheap paid one without ads. It works in two modes: video or still camera.
It’s very simple to use and when set to video, works in real time. You just
click on Record and point the camera to the thing you need to identify. It
reads bits of labels on jars and boxes, identifies books, reads short pieces
of text and translates them into the chosen language. It also identifies
well-known pictures. So, if you have placemats with famous paintings on
them, it can tell you which is which.
Talking Goggles is an app I don’t ever want to be without.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Talking goggles

[Ann Byrne]

it doesn't really take a video, but it will tell 
you about things it sees when the camera is moving.  So, no storage at all.

Hello Simon,

Talking Goggles comes in two versions: the free 
one with ads, and the very cheap paid one 
without ads. It works in two modes: video or still camera.
It’s very simple to use and when set to video, 
works in real time. You just click on Record and 
point the camera to the thing you need to 
identify. It reads bits of labels on jars and 
boxes, identifies books, reads short pieces of 
text and translates them into the chosen 
language. It also identifies well-known 
pictures. So, if you have placemats with famous 
paintings on them, it can tell you which is which.

Talking Goggles is an app I don’t ever want to be without.

Cheers,

Anne

 Hello,
Could someone please point me somewhere about the free app? When I typed in 
talking goggles, I have only found an app, for £0.79 in the app store.

Does Goggles keep these videos it takes; if so how would you delete them?

Hello Simon,

Talking Goggles comes in two versions: the free one with ads, and the very 
cheap paid one without ads. It works in two modes: video or still camera.
It’s very simple to use and when set to video, works in real time. You just 
click on Record and point the camera to the thing you need to identify. It 
reads bits of labels on jars and boxes, identifies books, reads short pieces 
of text and translates them into the chosen language. It also identifies 
well-known pictures. So, if you have placemats with famous paintings on 
them, it can tell you which is which.

Talking Goggles is an app I don’t ever want to be without.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Talking goggles

[Anne Robertson]

Hello Simon,

Talking Goggles comes in two versions: the free one with ads, and the very 
cheap paid one without ads. It works in two modes: video or still camera.
It’s very simple to use and when set to video, works in real time. You just 
click on Record and point the camera to the thing you need to identify. It 
reads bits of labels on jars and boxes, identifies books, reads short pieces of 
text and translates them into the chosen language. It also identifies 
well-known pictures. So, if you have placemats with famous paintings on them, 
it can tell you which is which.
Talking Goggles is an app I don’t ever want to be without.

Cheers,

Anne

Re: Has anyone tried Talking Goggles with iPhone 6S and iOs 9.02?

Hello Eileen,

I mean when the switch on the iPhone is set to silent. I’ve just tried both 
versions of Talking Goggles, the free one with ads and the paying one without 
ads, and they both still work for me on my iPhone 5 with iOS8.

Hi Ann,

Do you mean silent or muted? Or, when you turn speech off with a 3 finger 
double tap? I tried to use Talking Goggles 2 days ago and got no response after 
a few minutes, so I went on to the next app in my list of tricks to get the 
info I needed. It was on video mode, flash on and running 8.4.1 on an iPhone6. 
I had all apps closed out of the app switcher. If I can get it to work, it 
takes a tremendous amount of time, so I try something else like BeMyEyes. HTH.
