Well, the Seeing AI app as we all know is free seems to work just fine for a lot of people. Why it doesn’t work for some I don’t know, but while I also don’t use the KNFB Reader app any more, I do use the Seeing AI app as well as Tap Tap See. I have not found either of these apps to have gone downhill and it sounds like Tap Tap See may soon get a big update which will make it even better. I also bought Voice Dream Scanner and I do agree that it is an amazing app. If Andy’s logic applied then KNFB Reader which is super expensive compared to Voice Dream Scanner should win hands down, but that is definitely not the case. I also say that you get what you pay for in some situations, but it is not always the case and sometimes you pay more for something and you get less.

Hi Janet, I think that voice stream scanner is definitely the best scanning OCR application for your iPhone. I get much better results than I do with Seeing AI or KnFB. That app has actually deteriorated since it first came out in my opinion. I think he would be happy spending the six dollars for a Voice Dream scanner.

Hi All, I used to be able to use the Seeing AI app until I got my new XR phone, but now, for some unknown reason the app doesn't work 99.9 percent of the time. When I open the app and hold it over a can of soup or a box, etc, sometimes it will beep for a few seconds, and sometimes it just doesn't do anything, very seldom it will try to mumble a few words that I can't understand, and the phone also gets quite warm. I've just called Microsoft support through the Be My Eyes app, and they told me they can't do any trouble shooting over the phone. Although, they did read my can of soup to me, but I guess that might be all they can do, not sure! LOL! All MS could tell me was to take it to an Apple store, and let them see how it is acting because they think something must be wrong with the hardware, or I might have some kind of virus or a worm, and Apple needs to see this. MS also said the Seeing AI app is pretty strait forward, so I shouldn't be having this problem. So my question is can anyone tell me what settings to check to see if I have the app set up correctly? I've uninstalled the app two times, and reinstalled it. I've picked the voice I want to use for the app. I've checked the language, I've allowed the app to use my camera. When I double tap on which reading option I want to use meaning either to read a product, short text, document, etc, sometimes, voiceover just completely stops talking, but I can still hear some tapping sounds, so I know the phone or the app is doing something, but I have to close the Seeing AI app through the app switcher, to get voiceover to talk again, and go back into the app. Sometimes the screen jumps to the app switcher, or just closes the entire app. I've reset my phone up as a new phone two times since I've had it, I've reset my network settings as well, so any opinions will be greatly appreciated! Thank you all. Janet Peace Be With You. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
