Re: Recognizing Multiple Pages in Seeing AI

In my humble opinion, that is the only thing KNFB Reader has over Seeing AI. No, you cannot at this time. Though, you can recognize a document and then copy and paste it into another app, scan the next page, copy and add that to the previous, etc. Later, Richard "Reality is the leading cause

Hello Wendy, As to the part where no one hears her, I would confirm that the microphone is not muted. To do this, answer the call and take the phone away from the ear to envoke the speaker phone if she is a VoiceOver user and flick to the hide keypad button along the bottom and double tap on it.

Hands up to Richard. I totally agree. The thought of being able to read hand writing has always been just a dream. As Richard has said. If you have been totally blind for all your life or most of your life this technology it great. We take what we can get and Seeing AI is giving it all to us.
