Do you have access to an Apple store? I'd have someone check it out thoroughly 
because that is not the way 99% or more of how other phones work.

Hi Richard,

Interesting, I just tried again and insured I was using the back facing camera. 
With screen curtain on I never get a result, but if I disable the screen 
curtain before launching the app, I get a result every time.

I don't see why it would make a difference, but I am using an iPhone SE. It 
doesn't make any sence to me but I can replicate it here every time.

Strange...


Cheers Brett.

front camera. This came up a few weeks ago and I took several pictures and 
video with the rear camera and I took pictures with the front camera and then 
made a Facetime Audio call to one of my employees with the screen curtain on. 
He said he could see me fine and all the pictures I took were just fine. Like I 
said, screen curtain blacks out the screen but not any of the camera lenses and 
what iDentifi does is use the main phone camera to take a picture, then the 
picture is uploaded to some server and when the result is available it comes 
back and is spoken, the screen just doesn't come into play here.

Hi Robbert,

I am pretty sure it adjusts the focus to highlight what is corrently in the 
foreground, presumably to correct for any movement when taking the picture.

Also for those people who aren't getting any results with this app, before 
launching the app, be sure to toggle off The screen curtain.

Cheers Brett.

After taking a picture,  one of the choices says something like focus locked

tell me the purpose of this choice.

Right now, the only way is to copy it to the clipboard with the three-finger

Your default VoiceOver voice will then repeat it, plus you could then paste 
that somewhere in an edit box if you wish.

Brett,
i just did another test in a very dark room with the flash set to automatic and 
the screen curtain on.
I got a very good result in about 10 seconds with it set to high accuracy.
This is on my 5s running iOS 10.1.1.
Do you have anyone around who could test using your phone?
There is no way I can possibly imagine  that the screen curtain could make any 
difference while using the back facing camera, which is what it defaults to 
every time.
I did try using the front facing camera, but got nothing. The next time I hit 
take photo, the camera was set to the back facing, so unless you are somehow 
accidentally toggling the camera to front facing every time you use the screen 
curtain, which I don't think is possible, you are doing something different 
when the screen curtain is on.

Hi Richard,

 

Screen curtain does not affect the front facing camera either. Just take a 
selfi and ask somebody to look at it, or, in order to proof that iDentifi 
doesn’t care about screen curtain, take a selfi or a picture with the main 
Camera app with camera switched to front and then import that picture with 
iDentifi, I guaranty that it will describe it just fine.

Brett,

i just did another test in a very dark room with the flash set to automatic and 
the screen curtain on.

I got a very good result in about 10 seconds with it set to high accuracy.

This is on my 5s running iOS 10.1.1.

Do you have anyone around who could test using your phone?

There is no way I can possibly imagine  that the screen curtain could make any 
difference while using the back facing camera, which is what it defaults to 
every time.

I did try using the front facing camera, but got nothing. The next time I hit 
take photo, the camera was set to the back facing, so unless you are somehow 
accidentally toggling the camera to front facing every time you use the screen 
curtain, which I don't think is possible, you are doing something different 
when the screen curtain is on.

Hi Robbert, 

 

I am pretty sure it adjusts the focus to highlight what is corrently in the 
foreground, presumably to correct for any movement when taking the picture. 

 

Also for those people who aren't getting any results with this app, before 
launching the app, be sure to toggle off The screen curtain.

RE: Identifi question

2016-12-02 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
That just makes no sense, I just tried it again and it worked perfectly with 
the screen curtain on and a picture I took. The reason why it is just not 
logical to me is that the screen curtain merely puts black pixels all over the 
screen, it does not in some way black out the rear or, for the matter, even the 
front camera. This came up a few weeks ago and I took several pictures and 
video with the rear camera and I took pictures with the front camera and then 
made a Facetime Audio call to one of my employees with the screen curtain on. 
He said he could see me fine and all the pictures I took were just fine. Like I 
said, screen curtain blacks out the screen but not any of the camera lenses and 
what iDentifi does is use the main phone camera to take a picture, then the 
picture is uploaded to some server and when the result is available it comes 
back and is spoken, the screen just doesn't come into play here.

Regards,
Sieghard

Hi, 

For me, I get no results when taking a photo if I have forgotten to toggle off 
screen curtain. If I toggle off screen curtain before launching the app, I get 
results every time. 

At least that's my experience, so I hope it helps others.

Re: Identifi question

2016-12-02 Thread 'Sandratomkins' via VIPhone
hi,
Try a three finger quadruple tap after you have heard the message. this puts 
the info into the clipboard but also speaks it out. well, this was my 
experience when I took a shot of the newspaper, which identifi read very well! 
this may be a sort of workaround for Braille keyboard/display users too! by the 
way, I was one of those people who was having no success with the app when I 
first got it, now, however, it works, but for me because our Internet is so 
slow it takes a long time for results to come back. I am very impressed with 
the quality of those results though. also, I much prefer that this is using 
technology rather than crowdsourcing. I  imagine , the app, which at the moment 
is only 7 MB, would have to be huge, were it to work off-line. but for those of 
us with the slow Internet connection, it would be marvellous! still, I am 
delighted with the app and too congratulate it's developer.

Screen curtain makes no difference for taking photos, only makes a 
difference for screenshots. I just confirmed this again with this app both 
by taking a picture and by importing one, it recognized both just fine.


I am actually more and more impressed with this app. I took a picture of my 
guide dog on his dog bed and it said "Yellow lab lying on green dog bed" 
which was perfectly accurate.
I then took a picture from about 8 feet away across my bed to the dresser in 
the corner which has a few stuffed plush animals on top. It said "Brown 
5-tear wooden dresser with plush animals on top" I am not making this up, 
the dresser does have 5 drawers.
When I did a bit of a close-up of the animals it gave me the following. 
Before I write the result I explain about the animals. Ikea has some awesome 
and very inexpensive stuffed animals and when my wife recently spent a few 
weeks at the hospital I bought her a few. Among others they had a yellow lab 
both a large one which is almost 30 inches long and a small one which is 
about 16 inches long, then they had a siberian husky also about the size of 
the large yellow lab and an awesome moose which is in between the small and 
large dogs, maybe 20 inches. My wife had the yellow lab on the bottom, the 
siberian husky sitting on top, the moose was a bit off and down against the 
wall and the little dog was behind so not visible very well. Here is what 
iDentify gave me:


Yellow lab and siberian husky plush animals on top of wooden cabinet". Mind 
you at that point only the top and side of the dresser were in the picture.
When I imported a photo I had of my wife with the husky it told me it was a 
"woman in a grey long sleeve T-Shirt with siberian husky plush toy", this 
picture was taken weeks ago and also perfectly accurate. Now if the app had 
told me it was a "beautiful filipina woman" it would have been too freaky 
even though it would of course also be accurate *smile*.

I am pretty sure it adjusts the focus to highlight what is corrently in the

Re: Identifi question

2016-12-01 Thread Brett
Hi Robbert, 

I am pretty sure it adjusts the focus to highlight what is corrently in the 
foreground, presumably to correct for any movement when taking the picture. 

Also for those people who aren't getting any results with this app, before 
launching the app, be sure to toggle off The screen curtain. 

Cheers Brett.

Hello,
I presume, it locks the focus on the currently pointed object, avoiding 
accidental moves. At least, when taking random images,  that's what it appears 
to do.

Re: Identifi question

2016-12-01 Thread Richard Turner
That has nothing to do with iDentifi, that is the camera app, which iDentifi 
apparently opens to take the picture.
I'm not sure what the purpose is other than maybe to, as it says, lock the 
focus on whatever is in the foreground?
Maybe someone with sight or who has read more about this can chime in.

After taking a picture,  one of the choices says something like focus locked 
unlocked.  This is a toggle and changes to locked when double tapped.  Please 
tell me the purpose of this choice.

Thanks.
