This is great information. I almost missed it because of the subject line.

We have one of the new washing machine and dryer sets. Each unit
has a digital display that shows the status, where it's at in the
cycle and the estimated time remaining. Depending on the
information from the sensors, time may be added or removed from the
cycle. Talking Goggles does a really good job of telling me what
the status is and how much longer the load is going to take. The
same thing holds true on the dryer. For a free app, talking goggles
meets my needs. No, it isn't perfect. Sometimes I have my iPhone 4
closer or pull it back to get the most information or even move it
left or right but that's a small price to pay for not knowing
anything alone. by myself with no one to look at the screen for me.
