Are you using it freehand, or are you using a stand? Andy

On an iPhone 5 using the most current firmware, I like it very much. I have had some success accessing a computer monitor and reading info on bottles, although this was just out of curiosity. Reading 8 and a half by 11 inch documents works very well. Some business cards can be accessed. Reading restaurant menus does work. Keep in mind, though, that lighting is important. One feature I like is the method of centering the document. Other apps, as far as I know, do not take the fact that you are blind into consideration like the KNFB reader does. Overall, I am impressed. It is fast and accurate, and compares very favorably with OpenBook 9 on a laptop PC using Windows XP pro and a flat bed scanner, and, of course, a heck of a lot more portable and affordable.

All, I have reward points and could redeem them for iTunes gift cards, and if I did, I would get KNFB Reader—but I’d like to know if folks find themselves using it a lot, in what situations, and what things have worked well and what things have not?
