Dacia! You have no idea how your post, quite unintentionally I am sure on your
part, cheered me up.
I now know that I am not alone in the world of those who have sort the help of
digit-eyes and have
failed.
That reminds me, I did try to call up someone on Be MY Eyes, which I have done,
without any trouble,
several times, but last night, I couldn't get a connection. Was the network
down? or was it just a
local hiccup [I live in New Zealand].

Subject: Re: Bar Code Reader App??
I still need some help and it frustrates me. I've never gotten the
close alert. Is there something I have to do to make that work? I
downloaded the app several months ago, not sure if there's an update
or just what?
