Dani, I tried a few blind friendly OCR apps and none of them compare to the KNFB reader. The ability to scan free-hand with a level indicator, notification of your text being seen and if the camera can see all 4 corners of the page make it the very best. The level now also works in the vertical so I use it all the time to scan text posted on a wall. If you can swing it while its on sale, you won't regret it. I realize it’s a lot of money but it’s a lot of app as well. Not using the flash, I was also able to recognize text on my computer monitor. That's pretty good.

Hi, Everyone. I know that the KNFB Reader is going to be on sale soon. For those of you who have, and use it, why would you choose KNFB over all the options that are VO- and blind-friendly? I'm on a really tight budget and don't have the money to try out all the possibilities. I've wanted the KNFB app for a while, but couldn't bring myself to plunk down the $$$ for it when the money could go toward other things. I thought I'd bite the bullet and ask what y'all think, one way or the other. Thanks, Dani -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
