Re: Be My Eyes - My Experience
No it doesn't, however I suspect that if a blind person or a volunteer consistently gets a not good rating from connections to them, the Be My Eyes people would look into the reason and, if warranted, kick them out of the network.Aira also has a rating system
Re: Be My Eyes - My Experience
I haven't been able to provide a rating other than basically good or not good. It doesn't seem to go more in depth.

I heard that early on, some kids were sighning up as either volunteers or blind people, then as volunteers would either make fun of the blind people asking for assistance or give them incorrect answers or bad information, or as blind people make fun

Re: Be My Eyes - My Experience
I used to use Be My Eyes, at first it was great and I used it whenever sighted help was needed. I also routinely always found a helpful and courteous volunteer at the other end and always went away feeling good about the app. But they are untrained volunteers
Re: Be My Eyes - My Experience
I don't know much about Aira, but this seems to connect me up with people that have been helpful each time

I was outside once, in front of my house. My garbage can blew into the street because it was windy a few hours beforehand. and I could not find it. So on my android phone I got a volunteer on the be my eyes app, and by moving the phone around in sort
Re: Be My Eyes - My Experience
Hi,Thanks for sharing this experience. It's an app that I've not used yet myself, but I do have it on my phone. Who knows, maybe next time I need a pair of eyes I might just use it! Cheers,Daniel
