Hi Cher,
If you see Still Camera and Stop this means you are in video mode and the camera is looking. Just hold your phone still over a package and wait for 3 to 5 seconds to see if it will recognize anything. If you double tap Still Camera it will say Video and the Stop/Record button will become the button to take a picture.

Also, why do you hear gibberish in the background- perhaps another language?

The button to the left of that will now say Record or Stop. Further to the left is the Change language now button which says EN for English. If you tap the Change language now button you have a huge choice of languages. I mainly use mine in French since I live in France so the items I wish to recognise are labelled in French. The bigger the object you want to recognise, the further you should hold the iPhone away from the object. Remember that the camera is in the top right-hand corner of the back of the iPhone.

It keeps saying that there are no close objects found. I took a pic of my monitor, window and other things. Also, what is the video part of this to do?

I use Talking Goggles more than any other object recognition app. I also use Tap Tap See and CamFind, but Talking Goggles is more informative. For instance, TapTapSee will identify a can of dog food, but Talking Goggles will tell me which variety it is.

I can't recall how much it is but it's certainly no more than a few dollars (if not free) - I can't check as I already own it - and it's certainly nowhere near X dollars a month that Tap Tap See has become, and yet I use it all the time to great effect. I have a 5S so admittedly a good camera but only this morning my computer stopped talking to me while I had about 10 different apps open and all half way through something and before I went nuclear with the power button I thought I'd try Talking Goggles and it read out to me the message about IE having stopped working and the Send/Don't send thing. I know I could have got out of this by trial and error with some keystrokes but I knew that even hitting Escape on the wrong thing could have been bad news. And this is just one example. So long as you have good bandwidth (as it's live video it's processing) you can just point it at anything and it usually reads it or recognises it just fine. I know it's not perfect but I also know that it's invaluable and doesn't have the drawbacks of either having to take multiple snap and hope images or having to pay big bucks (or should that be plenty of pounds) for it either. I should end by saying that I'm not as familiar with the other apps as I am with this one so please don't consider this as an anti-the-others msg, just a pro-Talking Goggles one.
