 Hi Eileen. I can confirm your volume findings as well. This is exactly what 
 happened to me. I actually put on head phones thinking the volume would 
 always be low, but when the person came on line, it was very very loud. 
 Actually, it was just about the same volume as it should have been, but I was 
 tricked by the soft speech at the beginning. And even when I closed the app, 
 the volume never came back to normal. Only when I took it out of the app 
 switcher.

 Hello All,
  
 I just want to report back my experience with the Be My Eyes. When I tapped 
 on the button to connect to a sighted person, the click sound feedback from 
 VO reduced in volume. Once the sighted person was connected to me, the volume 
 returned to the lavel that it was set to. The individual that assisted me 
 gave good instructions in correcting the bottle. I needed to identify if the 
 bottle was shampoo or conditioner. I received the response promptly. I 
 decided to use the app because Digit-Eyes couldn't find the barcode on this 
 item. It was a pleasure to have something similar to BizWiz once again in the 
 ability to ask a question in real time. The only wait time was to be 
 connected to a sighted individual, but once that occurred the amount of time 
 to receive a answer was quick. I'm hofing that in the future that the 
 business model will be reasonable. This app is definitely a winner.

should be a section where you can see what devices it is compatible with.

You work with a real person with this app. They can tell you how to hold the 
camera so they can better see what you are trying to discover. Tap Tap See is 
just a picture you send off to a crowd source and if you have only half of the 
picture in the frame, they will have to describe it from what they can see.

Hi All,

I’m just wondering out loud here.  How is be my eyes any different then Tap Tap 
See etc.  Be my eyes is free at the moment however if Tap Tap See was anything 
to go by, this app will be abused as well by people taking all kinds of 
pictures and mostly playing rather then real need.  I think of this app as a

I’m lost?  Maybe not.  I’ve already been accused of that more then once.

Nobody’s forcing you to use it. Different strokes for different folks. Use what 
fits your needs the best. The more options the better. I’m a CamFind and 
Goggles user. Wife’s also sighted so she’s my default label reader, but I’ll 
give this new service a spin. 

 

Always good to keep in mind with these types of services that you don’t know 
whose on the other end so it goes without saying to not use for things like 
identifying personal correspondence or financial info, etc. that and remember 
to keep your clothes on. You don’t want to go and accidently sext the poor 
person on the other end.

2015-01-16 Thread Neal Ewers
I don’t think Alan said he was being forced to use this. He was, in my mind, 
wondering about whether people would use it for their entertainment rather than 
for their actual needs. Of course, we don’t have control over that, but it 
would be a shame if people took such advantage of this real connection with a 
sighted person that the developers of the app will be forced to charge for it’s 
use. Having said that, I also need to say that some amount of using the site 
will be necessary for people if they are to know how well they can expect it to 
work. Of course, how well it works will change with the person on the other end 
of the communication link, but we do need to have some experience with the app 
before knowing that we can use it in and emergency. I didn’t really need to 
know the information about the picture on my wall I asked about yesterday, but 
I felt I needed to see how it worked for starters. If everyone who purchases 
the app feels they need to do this at least once, then there will be more use 
of the facilities at first then there may be at a later date. Perhaps some of 
this could be avoided were someone to do a podcast on this and actually walk 
through how it works with by using it to communicate with the sighted person.

It varies in that you are working with a sighted person in real time.  Tap Tap 
See now charges for the service because the sighted workers are paid.  These 
are volunteers.  I would not worry about this policy changing, because this 
decision is up to those in charge, and I'm not about to jump the gun 
unnecessarily.  As for people playing around with the app rather than using it 
strictly seriously, that's their prerogative.  I won't tell them how to, or not 
to, use the service.

Hi,

Good luck Rose. I spent two days unexpedely in the hospital two weeks  ago
and I thought up until that point that keeping everyone's medication in
exactly the same spot all the time was the perfect solution. It was not. One
person came in to help someone in the house out and moved everything in a
well-meaning attempt to help out and it took two weeks to get all our
prescription and over the counter medications straight. We use Walgreens who
does not really have a decent solution for talking prescriptions and I have
not found a good iPhone app obviously due to the shape of the bottles. I
could use CVS but they do not deliver and they charge more than Walgreens as
does our insurance company delivery service. So Walgreens and back to
keeping things in the exact same place for now it is.

Merv

2015-01-16 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello,

Yesterday I needed to identify a hair product that DigitEyes would not pick up. 
Since I had downloaded the app earlier in the day, I decided to give it a spin. 
This app reminds me very much of VizWiz, but has taken object recognition to 
the next level. The beauty of this app is that it is done in real time, with 
the helper giving you instructions in the optimum position to give the blind 
individual the information one wants. The tremendous advantage of Be My Eyes 
over TapTapSee is that one can ask specific questions about the item in 
question. With all apps like this, one should use good judgment in having 
sensitive or personal information not identified. This is to protect your own 
identity and security. That said, I was impressed in the rapid response and 
obtaining the information I needed. With VizWiz, it could take almost all day 
to get a response. I hope this assists others in giving the app a spin. Also, 
on a podcast I listened to this morning stated that they are a nonprofit 
organization and funding will end in September. Who knows what the business 
model will be, but in my opinion it would be worth The cost if it's reasonable 
to continue the service. The ability to receive accurate information is the 
quenching factor for me and that's a big difference from TapTapSee.

Best,
Eileen

Nobody’s forcing you to use it. Different strokes for different folks. Use what 
fits your needs the best. The more options the better. I’m a CamFind and 
Goggles user. Wife’s also sighted so she’s my default label reader, but I’ll 
give this new service a spin. 

 

Always good to keep in mind with these types of services that you don’t know 
whose on the other end so it goes without saying to not use for things like 
identifying personal correspondence or financial info, etc. that and remember 
to keep your clothes on. You don’t want to go and accidently sext the poor 
person on the other end.

Hi All,

 

I’m just wondering out loud here.  How is be my eyes any different then Tap Tap 
See etc.  Be my eyes is free at the moment however if Tap Tap See was anything 
to go by, this app will be abused as well by people taking all kinds of 
pictures and mostly playing rather then real need.  I think of this app as a 
just in case app.  When I’m really behind the 8-ball and need an answer such as 
I’m lost?  Maybe not.  I’ve already been accused of that more then once.

I just tried the app for the first time and found out that a package of vacuum 
cleaner bags that I had are identical to the ones I just received in the mail.  
Now, I have plenty.  I also found out some things about my portable chess 
computer that I did not know.  The conversation went very well, and the 
person's whose eyes I borrowed was very friendly and congenial.  She and I both 
are using an iPhone 5, and we both signed up yesterday.  I found it interesting 
that he knew my name when she answered the summons.  She said that Charles is 
sending a request.  I also noticed that the volume of the phone greatly 
decreased during the wait for a contact, but it does play some tones that let 
you know that the app is still trying to connect.  She also said that I have a 
really good-looking Labrador Retriever.  He walked in front of the table I was 
setting things on to be viewed.

I think this app is really awesome, and that it will be extremely helpful.  It 
is very simple to use, and worked successfully the very first time.  The camera 
on the back of the phone is the active one.  If you get too close or too far 
away, it will be blurry, but she was able to direct me on how far to hold the 
camera from what should be viewed.  As a blind person, this may take practice, 
but it really worked well.

  Hello,

   

  Yesterday I needed to identify a hair product that DigitEyes would not pick 
up. Since I had downloaded the app earlier in the day, I decided to give it a 
spin. This app reminds me very much of VizWiz, but has taken object recognition 
to the next level. The beauty of this app is that it is done in real time, with 
the helper giving you instructions in the optimum position to give the blind 
individual the information one wants. The tremendous advantage of Be My Eyes 
over TapTapSee is that one can ask specific questions about the item in 
question. With all apps like this, one should use good judgment in having 
sensitive or personal information not identified. This is to protect your own 
identity and security. That said, I was impressed in the rapid response and 
obtaining the information I needed. With VizWiz, it could take almost all day 
to get a response. I hope this assists others in giving the app a spin. Also, 
on a podcast I listened to this morning stated that they are a nonprofit 
organization and funding will end in September. Who knows what the business 
model will be, but in my opinion it would be worth The cost if it's reasonable 
to continue the service. The ability to receive accurate information is the 
quenching factor for me and that's a big difference from TapTapSee.

  Hi,

  Good luck Rose. I spent two days unexpedely in the hospital two weeks  ago 
and I thought up until that point that keeping everyone’s medication in exactly 
the same spot all the time was the perfect solution. It was not. One person 
came in to help someone in the house out and moved everything in a well-meaning 
attempt to help out and it took two weeks to get all our prescription and over 
the counter medications straight. We use Walgreens who does not really have a 
decent solution for talking prescriptions and I have not found a good iPhone 
app obviously due to the shape of the bottles. I could use CVS but they do not 
deliver and they charge more than Walgreens as does our insurance company 
delivery service. So Walgreens and back to keeping things in the exact same 
place for now it is.

The web site gave a few suggestions of what it can help with.  I would think 
that it can help with whatever a sighted person can, because it is a link 
between you and, well, a sighted person.  Try the app and find out, for your

Re: Be my eyes now available in the US App Store.

2015-01-15 Thread Eileen Misrahi
Hello All,

I just want to report back my experience with the Be My Eyes. When I tapped 
on the button to connect to a sighted person, the click sound feedback from VO 
reduced in volume. Once the sighted person was connected to me, the volume 
returned to the lavel that it was set to. The individual that assisted me gave 
good instructions in correcting the bottle. I needed to identify if the bottle 
was shampoo or conditioner. I received the response promptly. I decided to use 
the app because Digit-Eyes couldn't find the barcode on this item. It was a 
pleasure to have something similar to BizWiz once again in the ability to ask a 
question in real time. The only wait time was to be connected to a sighted 
individual, but once that occurred the amount of time to receive a answer was 
quick. I'm hofing that in the future that the business model will be 
reasonable. This app is definitely a winner. 

Eileen

RE: Be my eyes now available in the US App Store.

2015-01-15 Thread Neal Ewers
Hi Eileen. I can confirm your volume findings as well. This is exactly what 
happened to me. I actually put on head phones thinking the volume would always 
be low, but when the person came on line, it was very very loud. Actually, it 
was just about the same volume as it should have been, but I was tricked by the 
soft speech at the beginning. And even when I closed the app, the volume never 
came back to normal. Only when I took it out of the app switcher.

Hello All,

 

I just want to report back my experience with the Be My Eyes. When I tapped 
on the button to connect to a sighted person, the click sound feedback from VO 
reduced in volume. Once the sighted person was connected to me, the volume 
returned to the lavel that it was set to. The individual that assisted me gave 
good instructions in correcting the bottle. I needed to identify if the bottle 
was shampoo or conditioner. I received the response promptly. I decided to use 
the app because Digit-Eyes couldn't find the barcode on this item. It was a 
pleasure to have something similar to BizWiz once again in the ability to ask a 
question in real time. The only wait time was to be connected to a sighted 
individual, but once that occurred the amount of time to receive a answer was 
quick. I'm hofing that in the future that the business model will be 
reasonable. This app is definitely a winner. 

 

Eileen

things are usually a little behind here. For example, we don’t have iTunes 
radio yet. Even movies come slower here.

I’m going to see if it’s available in Canada yet though I highly doubt it.

It’s nice to have a real time, real person on the other end of the line.

 

Very nice.

Hi,
Is it true that this only works with the iPhone six? I got it, but have a 5S. 
Didn't try it yet because I wouldn't sure if it would work on my iPhone.
