I know that there is a stand available in the accessories pack for the Blaze EZ which I’m sure would help a lot with OCR work. I’ve been using KNFB Reader for IOS and Android which took a little practise to get going so I can see where difficult concerning the Blaze EZ hand held device would

KNFB reader for IOS is very good indeed. At 11:52 AM 12/5/2015, you wrote: how good is the KNFB reader for IOS and android? Yes there is a stand for the blaze EZ and ET products but even with the stand the material seems to not be able to be scanned as well, as a person might like it to be.

Re: Blaze EZ

I have heard the OCR functionality quickly eats up the battery. the unit is twice the cost of the Stream, bookport Plus, or the Plextalk Pocket. It makes more sense to me to buy one of these kinds of units and buy the KNFB reader app for the i Phone for a much better experience. I believe Dane

Ah now that’s a good question. On my Samsung Note5 I think its absolutely super but having said that results I’m sure will very depending on what android device KNFB Reader is used with, the nature of Android you know. So in summing up - if you’re prepared to use a premium Android device from
