Well, all I'll say is KNFB Reader isn't as good at reading menus as you
would think. In my experience, All Access works better in terms of reading
the items quickly and efficiently.
The problem with KNFB is the way some menus are laid out and the fact that
they are often a lot larger than letter-sized and sometims printed on a
glossy background.

KNFB reader?
We have fought for the freedom to be able to read our own menus, and I can
easily skim my fingers down my braile display advancing very quickly to
where I want whereas sighted people often tell me the things they think look
good, and allaccess is great, but sometimes, the restaurants don't have the
correct menu listed.
I don't have KNFB reader yet, but I sure can't wait to show off my
independence, and my family will be proud when I can read my own menu with
them.

In my opinion, using the KNFB reader for one of it's intended purposes is
not showing off, any more than using your iPhone to make a phone call. You
are not proclaiming to the entire restaurant, or to those at your table,
that you can do this, and isn't it mind blowing? Hey, look what I can do,
folks? Isn't that cool?? You are, in actuality, being more independent.

When I dine, I am usually with others, and I don’t like the idea of
holding everyone else up just to show off. I would prefer a Braille menu, or
better yet, an online menu that I can take my time perusing before i go to
the restaurant. I also like iPhone apps like All Access Menus.

Besides those who don’t mind making a spectacle of themselves or mind
putting of meals for themselves and their company, is it really practical to
use the KNFB Reader for restaurant menus? I am wondering about the speed and
accuracy of scanning menus, which can vary widely in format and quality.
Thanks!

I love the KNFB reader. I use it primarily for reading short paper
documents like business letters, etc.. I use it on an iPhone 5 running iOS
7.1.2 and am amazed at how quick and accurate it is.

All, I have reward points and could redeem them for iTunes gift cards,

themselves using it a lot, in what situations, and what things have worked
well and what things have not?
Thank you.
