Re: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-02-01 Thread Joanne Chua
Hi,

When you said the app doesn't work, what do you mean by that? Do you
mean, you can't get any result on the scanns, or you can't open the
app or, what sort of problems?
And, if you can't use the app, and not consider to restart your phone,
then, i'm kind of think, is that the user errore, or, the app itself
really didn't work? :)

Good luck

 Often, if a new app is acting strangely or won't open at all, a restart
 will put things right.

RE: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-02-01 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
What Alex meant by “new app” is after you install an app for the first time. 
No, the app came out last September so in that respect it is not new, but it 
sounds like you just bought it now so you should try to remove all apps from 
the app switcher, then turn off your phone, wait 30 seconds and turn it back 
on. Did the app ask you to give it access to the camera? You can check this in 
Settings, Privacy and make sure the app is allowed to use the camera.

Sieghardis that

Hi Christopher,

 

Instead of accepting that it doesn’t work, why not find out why it doesn’t work 
since there has got to be a reason. There are many 4S users and even iPod Touch 
Fifth Gen users for whom the app works well so I don’t see why it can’t work on 
your 4S.

Is the app not working at all, or are you stuck at some point when the app is

It absolutely is and it is by far the best OCR app for a blind person. Before 
it was out a few very experienced iPhone users were very skeptical, but I think 
even those people are all convinced that KNFB Reader blows everything else out 
of the water. At $50 it is a bargain and if you were able to pick up a couple 
of iTunes gift cards in December for 20% off you would in fact now get it for 
$40.

ofcourse they don't have the hints about your position and so on, but, for

does its worth all this money?

Re: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Sandratomkins
hi,
given financial constraints, I would like to say this:if you are someone who is 
well practised at aiming the camera,if you are someone who is used to OCR apps 
and getting good results,then, Prizmo, certainly, gives the KNFB reader a run  
For its  money!but it is a little more fussy to use and doesn't have the same 
guidance that the KN FB reader has.textGrabber is also a brilliant app! And it 
has the added attraction of being really very cheap!indeed, particularly with 
envelopes or upsidedown text et cetera,I often flick from KNFB reader to one of 
the above two and get good results!however, I did already owned these two apps 
so it costs me nothing more to do this.One thing is certain though, the KNFB 
reader has enabled many many more people to get passible if not excellent 
results, whereas, before, they simply didn't.so, turning to the original 
question is it worth it?you hath to know yourself and your own capabilities 
to answer this one.if you are not an experienced iPhone/OCR user,then, I think, 
it is worth it especially at this new half price.

just my thoughts, Sandy

 It absolutely is and it is by far the best OCR app for a blind person. Before 
 it was out a few very experienced iPhone users were very skeptical, but I 
 think even those people are all convinced that KNFB Reader blows everything 
 else out of the water. At $50 it is a bargain and if you were able to pick up 
 a couple of iTunes gift cards in December for 20% off you would in fact now 
 get it for $40.

 hello!
 I can confirm the price drop.
 my question is, is it really worth it? I mean there are other ocr on the 
 market that cost only a little fraction of this one...
 ofcourse they don't have the hints about your position and so on, but, for 
 those who hown t knfb reader, do you find you can have really accurate 
 results? does its worth all this money?
 thanks for the opinions

Thanks to all for your replies.
I bought the app and I am pretty happy with it. I still have to 
experiment more but the start is quite good.
Thanks alot to all who replied, I know the topic could have raised all 
kinds of war but every message has been polite and to the point. thanks

Hi all,
Bad news. I cannopt get it to work at all on either my iPhone 4s or iPad Mini 
2. I did what the user guide said but no go. So rather than paying for 
something that might not work like the Stand Scan Pro I will just have to 
accept the loss of what is now £39.99. Not a big deal for some of us but shame 
I missed out on the opportunity to get a refund. I am still in the 90 days 
window or so I thought when it said this purchase does not qualify for a 
refund. FYI, to report a problem with a purchase even if you do not have the 
receipt go here

 Hi all,
 Bad news. I cannopt get it to work at all on either my iPhone 4s or iPad Mini

 something that might not work like the Stand Scan Pro I will just have to 
 accept the loss of what is now £39.99. Not a big deal for some of us but 
 shame I missed out on the opportunity to get a refund. I am still in the 90

I figured it was new, since you said you tried it after paying the reduced

not try it? Sorry if I'm misunderstanding here.

RE: KNFB Reader drops to $49.99

2015-01-31 Thread Ron Pelletier
Hi,

 

Maybe you should describe your problem.  That way, you may be able to get
help.  I have it working well on my 5S and my friend has it going a little
slower but very well on her 4S.  If you are not getting anything at all, is
it possible you could be in the batch scan mode and are just accumulating
pages?

 

There's no reason it shouldn't work.

 hi,
 given financial constraints, I would like to say this:if you are someone who 
 is well practised at aiming the camera,if you are someone who is used to OCR 
 apps and getting good results,then, Prizmo, certainly, gives the KNFB reader 
 a run  For its  money!but it is a little more fussy to use and doesn't have 
 the same guidance that the KN FB reader has.textGrabber is also a brilliant 
 app! And it has the added attraction of being really very cheap!indeed, 
 particularly with envelopes or upsidedown text et cetera,I often flick from 
 KNFB reader to one of the above two and get good results!however, I did 
 already owned these two apps so it costs me nothing more to do this.One 
 thing is certain though, the KNFB reader has enabled many many more people 
 to get passible if not excellent results, whereas, before, they simply 
 didn't.so, turning to the original question is it worth it?you hath to 
 know yourself and your own capabilities to answer this one.if you are not an 
 experienced iPhone/OCR u
 ser,then, I think, it is worth it especially at this new half price.
 
 just my thoughts, Sandy

 It absolutely is and it is by far the best OCR app for a blind person. 
 Before it was out a few very experienced iPhone users were very skeptical, 
 but I think even those people are all convinced that KNFB Reader blows 
 everything else out of the water. At $50 it is a bargain and if you were 
 able to pick up a couple of iTunes gift cards in December for 20% off you 
 would in fact now get it for $40.

 I can confirm the price drop.
 my question is, is it really worth it? I mean there are other ocr on the

 ofcourse they don't have the hints about your position and so on, but, for 
 those who hown t knfb reader, do you find you can have really accurate 
 results? does its worth all this money?
