Be My Eyes
When I opened B M E last night to ask one of its invaluable sighted volunteers if I had a picture on my television screen or just a message telling me that there was "no signal", I was asked to sign in and enter my email address and password. I have never been asked to perform any of these functions before, and, if it continues, I will have to manage without the wonderful assistance that I have received from the service. I was shown 3 or was it 4 email addresses, one of which has me in a quandry as it is with a server that I don't remember ever having done business with and which of the 3/4 I, originally, signed up with, I haven't a clue and when I did enter the most likely, I was told that it didn't know that address., even though it had given it to me as one possible address, and it is a heck of a hassle to put in my complicated code. It is to be hope that this is only temporary! -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

Has anyone had any trouble with this app? I recently downloaded and installed the app,but when trying to register, I keep getting a message that the account could not be created and to make sure I have a valid internet connection. Well, I do have a valid internet connection, but can not get any further with the app. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Be My Eyes
Has anyone used BME recently? I needed a pair of eyes in the head of a person who could tell me if I had some sheep in the backyard. The program made a connection, but there was no reply. >From listening to the call sound, it seems to me that it goes in cycles of 9 >rings. After each 9, there is a slight pause before it starts again. of course, I don't know if it then tries another number, but I waited through many cycles before I tried to disconnect and that wasn't easy! Once it had me on the line, it seemed that it was loath to let me go. Jewel -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

has any demo been done on this, and since they are Danish, do they understand English or do we need to translate somehow? Has anyone actually jmanaged to get responses since most of these seem to go by the wayside. I just heard about this one so thought I'd ask if anyone uses it.

Hi all, I have just registered with Be My Eyes and have tried using the app for the first time. Having allowed the app to use both my microphone and camera I made a connection to the first available helper. I wanted them to read some cooking instructions for me that were on a ready meal and unfortunately although they could just about see the packaging when the first connection was made the screen went black and they could se nothing through the camera. I disconnected and tried again but exactly the same thing happened. Can anyone who uses this app please advise what the problem might be?

I just want to be straight witch the information of be my eyes. I would like to get my local Lion’s Club and others to enroll as sighted help. Am I correct saying that Be My Eyes is only for the IPhone or, is it for other phone too. Thanks, Andy and Shubert. One more question, I have voice dream reader and is there an instruction file that instructs on how to save text that I select to other than e-mail?

Hi, I just attempted to use be my eyes on my iphone 4s. I got connected rather quickly the first time and heard background activity with a TV and other house noise but, no one answered me. I disconnected and tried again. This time, the gentleman was able to speak with me but not see anything more than a frozen screen. Are there settings that I need to do or is it due to not having an iphone 6. I don’t want to bother anyone and call without having them waste their time. Any suggestions are appreciated.

I updated my phone to iOS 15.2. For some reason when I called Be My Eyes isn’t making the dinging noise just to let you know that it’s finding somebody to help. I was hoping when I upgraded from 15.1 to 15.2 that would be resolved but it has not. Any suggestions? Because I’ve called Be My Eyes twice and ask them. Meaning the volunteers.

I went into settings and the volume is that 87%. And I received a couple text messages today and I heard those sounds with no problem and of course I do not have no hearing issues either. I tested Be My Eyes with I think it’s called I don’t remember what it’s called but I turned it on and call Be My Eyes and did not hear anything then I turned it back off where it was to begin with and tried it again and no success. So I would be welcomed for more help. Yes Be My Eyes is great. I don’t see how we managed before all these awesome apps were invented.

Another great new Be My Eyes feature "Be My Eyes Groups"
This is what I received a couple of days ago from Be My Eyes: Be My Eyes is pleased to announce a major new feature called Be My Eyes Groups! For years we've heard from our community that not every person is comfortable asking for help from an unknown volunteer, no matter how kind. That's why, starting today, Be My Eyes is offering a major new capability to give blind people more choices. In addition to our existing 7.1 million volunteers, now blind people worldwide can also build their own custom network of people to help with everyday tasks. Build your own trusted group of friends or family to help with more personal and sensitive tasks you might not wish to share with an unknown volunteer - it's your choice. Maybe you need a friend or family member to confirm a medication. Or maybe you would feel more comfortable with a friend reviewing your paper mail. Surely among 20 friends and family members someone would be happy to help you out at the moment you need it. Now Be My eyes technology makes that easy. Once you've assembled your trusted group, just press the "My groups" button to connect with the first available person who is known to you. To create a new group, click on "My groups" in the Be My Eyes App homepage and follow the instructions on the screen. After you have created and named your first group, you will be able to send an invite link to your friends and family members. You will find the link at the end of the group creation process. Once you've assembled your trusted circle, just press the Be My Eyes Groups button to connect with the first available person who is known to you. You can enter up to 20 people in your circle and have up to 5 different groups on Be My Eyes. When you've set it up, your group will always be there to help, in any language you and your friends speak. And just like the other Be My Eyes features such as standard volunteers, Specialized Help and now Be My AI, our new Be My Eyes Groups feature is free of charge for non commercial use. We'll roll out Be My Eyes Groups worldwide beginning December 20th as an open beta test to ensure it's working well for our worldwide user group. To access this new feature, just open the current Be My Eyes app and click on the button marked "My groups" to start creating your individual trusted group. We welcome user feedback about the feature. Write to us at i...@bemyeyes.com<mailto:i...@bemyeyes.com> so we can continue to improve this service.

Re: Be My Eyes
Jewel, my suggestion may be more of a headache than you wish to endure. And my suggestion may not solve the problem you are having. Try deleting the MmBME app & reinstalling the app. If you haven’t used the app within the past month, something may have went wrong during the most recent update to the app. I would like to also suggest the app Seeing AI. The short document feature of the app would have accomplished the task you and given you the info you sought. I’ve used Seeing AI on several occasions to find out what if any message was displayed on my Tv screen, because there was no sound coming from the Tv. The app has also been helpful in reading my computer screenon a couple of occasions in which JAWS stopped speaking. Here is the link just in case you don’t have the app. Oh BTW the app is Free!

Hi, Don: I have had no problems using Be My Eyes. The latest version has more volunteers helping out.

RE: Be My Eyes
Hi Jewel, I used Be my Eyes for the first time a couple of days ago when I was trying to get past a captcha in the middle of the night when my wife was sleeping. After it rang for a bit it just sat there and I think said something about connecting, but it took probably a good 2 or 3 minutes before very nice young lady with good English but a Russian accent picked up. She read the captcha for me in no time and while I was close, I was a bit wrong as she was from the Ucraine and not Russia. If Be my Eyes doesn’t work you can also try the app “Crowdvis” or “Crowdviz” not totally sure how it’s spelled. Sheep are not a problem here, but I usually do have some moose in my backyard in the fall/early winter. They stop by to eat the apples on my apple tree and more rarely a black bear may wonder in as well.

Re: Be My Eyes
A * moose in the backyard! that would be a first for New Zealand! but perhaps you are a scot: I know that you aren't, but if you were, you could be speaking about a cute little rodent. It is said that moose/elks/wopitee I think that they are the same, were released in the Fjordland National Park last century or perhaps, in the 19th, and hunters report that they do come across elk sign from time to time and there are even some very blurry photographs that could be anything: rather like the Saskwash myth: sorry about the spelling * big Foot. My dog has a unhealthy interest in sheep and, in his view, they are nothing other than dog tucker, so having them roaming about in * his backyard would not be good for their wellbeing.

RE: Be My Eyes
Actually, elk and wapiti are the same, but moose are altogether a different animal. I am in Canada and specifically in northern British Columbia where we have everything running around in the mountains from moose and elk to various smaller deer, caribou, mountain goat, mountain sheep, black and grizzly bears and so on. Anyhow, I don’t want to get too much off-topic. Hopefully Be my Eyes will work for you or, as I said, if not try Crowdvis.

Here’s another question about this app. Every time I try to get a connection, it’s almost as if doesn’t even go through. It basically cuts me off immediately. What am I doing wrong?

Re: Be My Eyes
Jim! When the program says "connecting with the first available contact, it does need an action on your part. About halfway up on the righthand edge, you will find a button that you have to tap to complete the connection and you should hear something like "request being actioned". It all will take 2 or 3 minutes to complete. In the past, I have had a successful connection with a woman in Thailand, but she, or I thought so anyway, had an Australian accent.

Re: Be My Eyes
Hallo Jewel and Sieghard, I am interested to know how I would use Be My Eyes to read a capture? Would I need to take a screen-shot? Also, I have often found that while I am seeking assistance with captures, I get timed-out. So, would be most interested to find out more. As for visiting locals: we too have had sheep and, one time, 18 young and boisterous bullocks! They left cow shaped wholes in our hedges and were running around and around the house like football hooligans! My old, much beloved, guide dog's best friend was a fox, who regularly stole his Frizbies, and there is a badger who never wants to be sociable.

RE: Be My Eyes
Hi Sandy, Be my Eyes works via Facetime so you are basically having a live Facetime video call with somebody and you would just point the camera at your computer screen, in my case, the girl who helped me told me I had to move it left a bit and then she could see the captcha. It is not the most efficient way to do a captcha as it takes a few minutes to get somebody on the line, but when I did this I had spent some considerable time going through the configuration and filling out some information on a web page so I didn’t want to let that all go and redo it in Firefox where I have Webvisum installed which can solve a captcha in about 10 or 15 seconds.

RE: Be My Eyes
Hi Sandy, I understand in some situations Tap Tap See has worked for captchas. I rarely run into this on an iPhone because I still very much do do these sort of things on my PC. The iPhone is great, but it can’t compete when it comes to productivity and efficiency fpr certain tasks with what I can do on my PC with Jaws and I work on a computer pretty much all day long so it’s not like I am going out of my way to use it. Yes, the vacuuming was fine, took me all of 20 minutes to do my entire house. Maybe I’ll come visit you, I can probably find a cheap off-season flight to Ireland for less than what one of these things costs and then I can steel yours *smile*.

RE: Be My Eyes
Yes, people who want to take calls in Be my Eyes and help have to also download the app and sign up as "Helpers". I think for the most part people who do so may have some sort of connection via maybe a friend or family member who is blind or through their work. Of course some may just stumple across the app or hear about it somewhere and decide they want to help. -Original Message- From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Mohib Anwar Rafay Sent: Monday, June 13, 2016 8:47 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: Be My Eyes Just wondering while using BME, who will be contacted? mean a random facetime call will be given to someone? or the person who want to help, he will have to install BME in his phone first?

Re: Be My Eyes
I still use it, and it sure has come in handy. Sometimes it takes time to connect with a volunteer, but in the end it has been worth the wait. It's nice to get an answer to a question without having to wait for a friend to come and help when I need it quickly.

Re: Be My Eyes
Similar to Tom, I don't use Be My Eyes often but it is there when I need it. It is like having a volunteer in my pocket, available anytime. Yesterday I showed a student I am working with how to use it and he was blown away. I think this app still has its place, even if it is for the person who doesn't want to pay a fee or subscription but wants to be able to access help anytime of the day or night.

Re: Be My Eyes
I don't use it either, mostly because I'm often able to get what I need from tap tap see. That, and the long wait times are definitely a bit of a deterrent. It can also just feel awkward to talk to strangers who can see inside my home, but that's more about me than it is about the app. Shermeen On 11/18/15, Wayne Merritt wrote: > Similar to Tom, I don't use Be My Eyes often but it is there when I > need it.

Re: Be My Eyes
Hello Cara and other interested listers, I use Be My Eyes two or three times per week. In fact, Be My Eyes is the primary reason that I upgraded from a 4S to an iPhone 6. The camera has made a big difference. My access was blocked several weeks ago after I had a connection with a volunteer where I could hear her, but she could neither see me nor hear me. So the volunteer apparently thought it was a crank call and had some means of putting me on a blocked list. Fortunately, I emailed the support team and got things resolved, after which things have been working very well. One other issue is that sometimes a volunteer's ability to speak English is a bit marginal, and communication can at times be difficult. However, for the most part, I have had good communications with the volunteers.

RE: Be My Eyes
Until just recently, I used Talking Goggles to read oven temperature and other LCD displays. Today with 9.1 and the last update to Goggles, who knows when that actually was, could not read oven temperature. So a burned lunch slightly. Oh, well, I did not try Be My Eyes as I have never signed up, although I have app and have heard about slow responses or Tap Tap See due to being involved in multiple tasks at once and having to complete them in a timely fashion.

Re: Be My Eyes
I understand that the trend today is to monetize as many services as possible, but free still beats paid unless there is some compelling reason to pay. The guy who started Crowdviz used security and protecting sensative info as some reasons, as his staff are supposedly vetted and background checked. it will be interesting to see what happens, as I'm not sure that monetizing has worked well for TapTapSee.

RE: Be My Eyes
I have found be my eyes very useful. I don't use it often, but when I need it, it's really helpful. I would not want to be without it. I try not to use it unless there is no other choice since I want to make best use of volunteers time and want to be as independent as possible. Haven't used it in the last month or so. God bless!

Be My Eyes App
Hello Everyone, Wondering how many people have successfully connected to a person on the Be My Eyes app. When it first came out, I tried it and it worked great. I loved it. Over the past several weeks, there were times when I tried it and the system rang for a period of time without answer. I tried different times of the day and week without success. Does anyone have any tips on working the app? Thanks in advance, Jeff -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: be my eyes
It seems as though the market is being bombarded with this kind of service. In the past, the big problem has been how to recruit and maintain the pool of workers, or whatever you want to call them. For such a service to be useful, it would need to be available over a large geographical area, and for most of the day and week because blind people live 24/7 like everyone else. Good luck!

RE: be my eyes
Kerri, You can read this at the URL Julia provided, www.BeMyEyes.org. Anyhow, here is what it says: How it works First a blind person requests assistance in the Be My Eyes app. The challenge that he/she needs help with can be anything from knowing the expiry date on the milk to getting help crossing the street. The volunteer helper receives a notification for help and a live video connection is established. From the live video the volunteer can help the blind answering the question the blind needs answered. Non-profit - all for love Be My Eyes is a non-profit, put in this world to make the biggest difference possible for blind people. It basically would be like asking a family member or friend for help via Facebook or Skype except that this would mean you have access to somebody around the clock. Probably a good idea not to ask what that ichi spot is on your belly after coming out of the shower *smile*. I guess anything that is very personal is better left to somebody who really is a family nmember or close friend, but nonetheless there are many situations where a service like this could be vastly more useful than the limited information you can get from Tap Tap See. This is even better than sending a picture with a question like one was able to do in that other app which I forgot what it was called just now, but it's been defunct for some time. It will be interesting to see how quickly and reliably one can get assistance with this one and if they are able to continue to offer the service at no charge.

Re: be my eyes
I just read the Frequently Asked Questions on the Be My Eyes web site. It is the result of a proposal at a StartUp weekend. StartUp weekends are a program that provides an entrepreneur a chance to pitch ideas to a group of people willing to provide startup funding. This one was in Denmark and is launching world wide tomorrow. The last question on the page is about cost, here is the answer: We are nonprofit, but there are cost related to keeping Be My Eyes up and running. By September 2015 our initial funding comes to an end, and we will have to come up with a sustainable business model. We consider a subscription model and/or donations.

Re: be my eyes
Hi folks, I’m actually very much looking forward to this app. I really liked viz wiz when it came out because you could ask a question. i never used tap tap see because without the question i rarely got the info I needed. this model sounds great. there will be challenges for them but hope to help. I plan to share the info so hopefully others will sign up as sighted helpers. It will be interesting to see how this develops. I’m very much looking forward to being able to ask a question and in this model ask a follow up question. no more taking a picture of a tire and learning it is a tire. Now I can actually learn the max tire pressure listed on the side wall!

RE: Be my eyes?
Hi Andrew, Sounds like it may have just been a slow internet connection. Remember that this is like using Facetime and I certainly have used Facetime with my parents who live in a very remote area in Northern BC where they only have a 3G cell connection which is not always the best and sometimes the video freezes or goes away altogether or when I call it keeps ringing and ringing and when I finally hang up and call on the phone my Mom says that she accepted the call and it just said “Connecting” on her end where on my end it was still ringing as if nobody had yet picked up. Of course the helpers internet connection is also effecting this and usually upload speeds are lower than download speeds so in your case it sounds like maybe you had a slow upload speed which is why your helper could not see live video. Apart from that Be My Eyes on your 4S should work just fine. Regards, Sieghard From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Andrew J.

Is the rear facing camera the one I use? If I need to use both of my hands while on a call do I just find some place to prop up the phone or have any of you found a good solution?

RE: Be My Eyes.
This may seem obvious, but have you tried shutting your phone down and re-starting it? Sometimes that solves strange behaviors. I do notice that the hold music while waiting to connect with a Be My Eyes volunteer is a little softer than the normal volume of the phone. Also, have you contacted Be My Eyes support?

Be My Eyes Group.
Hi Everyone, I just received this email, and I thought some of you might be interested, so I copied and pasted an article below. Hi Janet, Be My Eyes is pleased to announce a major new feature called Be My Eyes Groups! For years we've heard from our community that not every person is comfortable asking for help from an unknown volunteer, no matter how kind. That's why, starting today, Be My Eyes is offering a major new capability to give blind people more choices. In addition to our existing 7.1 million volunteers, now blind people worldwide can also build their own custom network of people to help with everyday tasks. Build your own trusted group of friends or family to help with more personal and sensitive tasks you might not wish to share with an unknown volunteer - it's your choice. Maybe you need a friend or family member to confirm a medication. Or maybe you would feel more comfortable with a friend reviewing your paper mail. Surely among 20 friends and family members someone would be happy to help you out at the moment you need it. Now Be My eyes technology makes that easy. Once you've assembled your trusted group, just press the "My groups" button to connect with the first available person who is known to you. To create a new group, click on "My groups" in the Be My Eyes App homepage and follow the instructions on the screen. After you have created and named your first group, you will be able to send an invite link to your friends and family members. You will find the link at the end of the group creation process. Once you've assembled your trusted circle, just press the Be My Eyes Groups button to connect with the first available person who is known to you. You can enter up to 20 people in your circle and have up to 5 different groups on Be My Eyes. When you've set it up, your group will always be there to help, in any language you and your friends speak. And just like the other Be My Eyes features such as standard volunteers, Specialized Help and now Be My AI, our new Be My Eyes Groups feature is free of charge for non commercial use. We'll roll out Be My Eyes Groups worldwide beginning December 20th as an open beta test to ensure it's working well for our worldwide user group. To access this new feature, just open the current Be My Eyes app and click on the button marked "My groups" to start creating your individual trusted group. We welcome user feedback about the feature. Write to us at i...@bemyeyes.com<mailto:i...@bemyeyes.com> so we can continue to improve this service. Learn more about our new Be My Eyes Groups feature in our new blog post: www.bemyeyes.com/blog/be-my-eyes-integrates-friends-and-family-groups<https://emails.bemyeyes.com/r/abd2a1d0730922d75b06216be?ct=YTo1OntzOjY6InNvdXJjZSI7YToyOntpOjA7czoxNDoiY2FtcGFpZ24uZXZlbnQiO2k6MTtpOjg0O31zOjU6ImVtYWlsIjtpOjU5O3M6NDoic3RhdCI7czoyMjoiNjU4MmY2OGExZTA1NzA5NDMwNzI2MCI7czo0OiJsZWFkIjtzOjc6IjExOTE3MjAiO3M6NzoiY2hhbm5lbCI7YToxOntzOjU6ImVtYWlsIjtpOjU5O319&;> For a step-by-step guide about how to create your own trusted group, visit: https://support.bemyeyes.com/hc/en-us/articles/21034815699857-How-do-I-use-Be-My-Eyes-Friends-and-Family-Groups-<https://emails.bemyeyes.com/r/d39fccadbecaa16e92e81acb3?ct=YTo1OntzOjY6InNvdXJjZSI7YToyOntpOjA7czoxNDoiY2FtcGFpZ24uZXZlbnQiO2k6MTtpOjg0O31zOjU6ImVtYWlsIjtpOjU5O3M6NDoic3RhdCI7czoyMjoiNjU4MmY2OGExZTA1NzA5NDMwNzI2MCI7czo0OiJsZWFkIjtzOjc6IjExOTE3MjAiO3M6NzoiY2hhbm5lbCI7YToxOntzOjU6ImVtYWlsIjtpOjU5O319&;> Best regards, Mike from Be My Eyes Keep in touch, find us on: -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.

I’m not exactly sure how to do this with WhatsApp, but you should be able to save the photo either to your photo library or possibly directly share it.

Be my eyes question
Hi all. Is anyone having problems with the be my eyes app. I place a call, the tones stop and the phone seems to freeze up. My Iphone 13 Mini is having some rather disturbing problems, so I'm not sure if it's my phone or if there is some sort of glitch with the server or the app. Just curious. Thanks. God bless!

Be My Eyes AI
Here is an example of the Be My Eyes AI description of a t-shirt that I have. I'll be using this app for clothing from now on. T-shirt was just laying across my lap. So I didn't get a full view. The picture shows a turquoise fabric, possibly a piece of clothing, with a colorful design on it. The design includes a yellow surfboard with the words "Hard Dock CAFE" written in red. The surfboard is adorned with flowers in various colors such as pink, red, purple, and yellow. There is also a white rope-like design that circles around the surfboard. Below the surfboard, there are words that are partially visible, which seem to say "Jones Valley Resort Shasta Lake".

Question about Be My Eyes?
Hi, list. I gotta question about Be My Eyes. When we hit the 'Connect' button we hear a back ground music. Am I correct in my understanding that while This music is playing I am in the cue and my call is being processed? If I don't hear the music but the system says waiting for other part to connect, does it mean I'm disconnected because of no music? Or, am I still in cue even though I am not hearing the music?

Re: Be My Eyes App
I used it about 2:30 a.m. Thursday morning. I had a minor surgical procedure preformed the previous day. I awoke in pain and no one was at home and there was no one I could ask locally, given the time. I had pain medicine, but was not sure if I had the right bottle and how many pills to take. I tried the app and after a few minutes, a woman answered. She seemed to have a middle eastern accent. She didn't seem to want to read me the label on my pill bottle though and quickly disconnected. I tried again and within a minute a woman with a German accent answered. It was mid-morning in Europe. she instructed me on how to position the camera and pill bottle so she could read it. Apparently, the pill bottle must be rotated in one hand while the camera is kept straight and without movement in the other hand so the camera does not get out of focus. she did not know how to pronounce acetaminophen, the generic name for Tylenol, or codeine. she apologized for her English skills, but many native English speakers can't pronounce these names either. She did tell me though how many pills to take before signing off in personal embarrassment. she took time out of her life to provide valuable help at a time of need, for which I am grateful. I wonder if others have had volunteers who could be helpful but had a low confidence in their skills. fortunately, I live in a big city and both a 24 hour CVS and Walgreen's are a half mile walk from my house and across the street from each other. It would be a real hassle to put on clothes and walk to one of these stores for a sighted clerk to read a label on a pill bottle in the middle of the night though.

Re: Be My Eyes App
Hello, In the past couple of weeks, I have used the app. Here are some problems I have encountered, but eventually received the assistance I was requesting. 1. Connecting to a helper took too long. I disconnected and reconnected again and was successful. 2. The helper couldn't see the object in question because it was not clear enough. I disconnected, cleaned the lens of the phone's camera and reconnected. This did the trick. 3. On the first attempt to connect to a helper, I was disconnected within a second or two. This was after waiting a few minutes to get connected in the first place. 4. And yes, I have been connected to individuals who's English has been marginal and difficult to understand. At times, they have had a hard time pronouncing hard words, which could happen to anyone. What I don't understand is that there are a substantial amount of helpers to those of us who are requesting assistance and it would be nice to be connected to individuals in a similar geographic area. There have been times when an individual will state that I'm there first person that they are helping. I would think there is a way to filter the individuals in order of geographical areas to decrease the frustrations in getting assistance for us who are seeking it. JMO.

RE: Be My Eyes App
I have used Be My Eyes with good success. I tried to use them only when all other apps have not gotten me the information I need. There have been a few times when it takes some time to connect. If I remember correctly, someone in the know said that if you don’t get a connection within 3 or so minutes you should log off and re-connect. I’ve gotten the help I needed each time I used the app. Cudos to those volunteers! God bless!

Uses for Be My Eyes
I love this app. My husband had actually thought of doing an app like this a couple years ago, but we didn't have the resources to do it, so I am very excited that it finally exists. A few people have asked what sorts of things Be My Eyes can help with, so I wanted to share a few examples. get expiration dates on food items Identify a product that has no bar code find out if a block of cheese has mold find out if a shirt has a stain get instructions etc from prescription labels read the results of a home pregnancy test (beneficial since this usually has to be done early in the morning with the first urine, before you'd normally have any sighted help around to help) identify buttons on things like a remote, an appliance or piece of electronics read electronics displays And we've had a few instances where our computer has crashed and rebooting causes a dialogue box to come up that we have to make a selection in before it will launch Windows and the desktop. So we've been stuck with no speech output until getting past this dialogue box, and have needed to find sighted assistance, either in person or via FaceTime. Also one time in the past I had to give myself a new medication via injection, and had no one available to help me fill the syringe to the correct dose, and luckily I was able to find someone to FaceTime with who was able to watch me slowly fill the syringe and tell me when it reached the dosage line I had to fill it to. Both of these things can now be done with this app. And there are s many other things it can help with. Basically its limitless. Pretty much anything for which it would be useful to have sight. This is the closest thing to having sight -- being able to get help in real time, at the very time when it is needed, instead of having to wait hours or days for it. -- The following information is important for all members of the viphone list.

Re: [Bulk] Be my eyes?
Hi Andrew and others, Another thing to keep in mind is that the app does not activate the flash so there needs to be lots of light for the person to see with the camera. I had a person tell me they could not see even though a over head light was on. When I turned on another brighter light they could see and answer my questions. One other tip. during a call the person said several times, wait a moment the image is going to be clearer in a moment. and sure enough if we waited they could then see clearer and read the information I needed. the app has worked great for me though i am using a iPhone 6.

RE: Using Be My Eyes
Yes, Be My Eyes uses the rear camera and if you need both hands and use the app a fair bit a much better solution is to invest in a small tripod like this one: Joby GripTight GorillaPod Stand PRO for iPhone<https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/joby-griptight-one-gp-smartphone-stand-black/10737829.aspx> Keep in mind that this link is to the Best Buy Canada website, but this item is available from Best Buy in the States, from Amazon and even from Apple Stores. There are probably cheaper tripods and holders out there, but this one really is great with it’s bendy little legs and since it’s a universal holder it is not something that would no longer work if you ever bought a different phone, e.g. if you now had a regular size phone and you get a lus-size phone later.
