Hi,
Having seen this app mentioned here, I decided, it being free!!! to
download it and take it for a spin on my 6 running 8.3.
Once I enabled the camera and turned on the flash, I took a shot of a dog
magazine and then did the same with the KNFB Reader app. I have to tell you
that, on this one example, this free and tiny app, did as well as the very
expensive KNFB reader. I am, by the way, not knocking the latter app, merely
wanting to encourage people to give it a try, especially if the KNFB is too
pricy for you.
The are a few things that could be improved with the interface. If it were
possible to simplify and automate rthat than having to press extra buttons,
such as the "done" button, I would say we have an outstanding winner! Always
with the proviso that I have only tried it using one example. I liked the way
that the app told me that all 4 edges were visible without me needing to use a
"field of view report" button. Plus, I did try opting for the "automatic"
option in settings, but couldn't see how to use it. The 6 page intro seems a
bit lacking and I don't understand why, and on this other apps are equally
guilty, there seems to be a need for multipage introductions, generally saying
nothing of use and yet requiring the use of the page switching button, a thing
that often does not work properly.
I shall play with this more, but would like to know, as it is so small, do
I have to have internet connectivity? Plus, the choice of using VOs built in
voices would be nice as I, for example, can understand Danniel much easier than
any other voice.
So, as a first impression I would suggest to anyone to give it a try, costs
nothing and has been designed for the love of doing it and helping.
Sandy.
