Hi,

   Having seen this app mentioned here, I decided, it being free!!! to 
download it and take it for a spin on my 6 running 8.3.


   Once I enabled the camera and turned on the flash, I took a shot of a 
dog magazine and then did the same with the KNFB Reader app. I have to tell 
you that, on this one example, this free and tiny app, did as well as the 
very expensive KNFB reader. I am, by the way, not knocking the latter app, 
merely wanting to encourage people to give it a try, especially if the KNFB 
is too pricy for you.


   The are a few things that could be improved with the interface. If it 
were possible to simplify and automate rthat than having to press extra 
buttons, such as the done button, I would say we have an outstanding 
winner! Always with the proviso that I have only tried it using one example. 
I liked the way that the app told me that all 4 edges were visible without 
me needing to use a field of view report button. Plus, I did try opting 
for the automatic option in settings, but couldn't see how to use it. The 
6 page intro seems a bit lacking and I don't understand why, and on this 
other apps are equally guilty, there seems to be a need for multipage 
introductions, generally saying nothing of use and yet requiring the use of 
the page switching button, a thing that often does not work properly.


   I shall play with this more, but would like to know, as it is so small, 
do I have to have internet connectivity? Plus, the choice of using VOs built 
in voices would be nice as I, for example, can understand Danniel much 
easier than any other voice.


   So, as a first impression I would suggest to anyone to give it a try, 
costs nothing and has been designed for the love of doing it and helping.


   Sandy.

I have been swiping right with one finger and nothing happens.  Do you have to 
have voice over on or off.  If you have VO off then I don't see how you can 
hear the button. So far I have not been able to get this app to do anything.  
Any suggestions on what I am doing wrong?

Be aware that when you run the Voice app for the first time, that you're

On that main screen starting at the top as you swipe to the right are a

and the camera flash on /off button in the top right. If you swipe right again, 
you'll be on the camera viewfinder which takes up the majority of the screen 
excluding the top and bottom line controls sections. 

Another swipe to the right will move you to the bottomline controls the first 
of which is a filter button. Another swipe right will place you on the crop 
on/off button. The next swipe will put you on the photo capture button which 
you use to take the picture. Finally, is the photo library button which is 
located on the bottom right of the app's main screen.

introduction and be on the app's main screen. 

On that main screen starting at the top as you swipe to the right are a 
settings button at the top left, an app identification label in the top center, 
and the camera flash on /off button in the top right. If you swipe right again, 
you'll be on the camera viewfinder which takes up the majority of the screen 
excluding the top and bottom line controls sections. 

Another swipe to the right will move you to the bottomline controls the first 
of which is a filter button. Another swipe right will place you on the crop 
on/off button. The next swipe will put you on the photo capture button which 
you use to take the picture. Finally, is the photo library button which is 
located on the bottom right of the app's main screen. 

I hope this helps.

Sandy,

Yes, you need Internet connectivity at the moment for this app, because it does 
the OCR on line and provides the speech via Google. This may change in future 
according to the young man who's developed the app. More info in Applevis 
podcast no. 29, if I remember rightly. It's well worth a listen.

Vince.

Yes, I believe you need internet connectivity as there is not a built-in OCR 
engine with this app. It sends the data to the internet for that function, as 
far as I understand it.

Hi,

Having seen this app mentioned here, I decided, it being free!!! to download it 
and take it for a spin on my 6 running 8.3.

Once I enabled the camera and turned on the flash, I took a shot of a dog 
magazine and then did the same with the KNFB Reader app. I have to tell you 
that, on this one example, this free and tiny app, did as well as the very 
expensive KNFB reader. I am, by the way, not knocking the latter app, merely 
wanting to encourage people to give it a try, especially if the KNFB is too 
pricy for you.

The are a few things that could be improved with the interface. If it were 
possible to simplify and automate rthat than having to press extra buttons, 
such as the done button, I would say we have an outstanding winner! Always 
with the proviso that I have only tried it using one example. I liked the way 
that the app told me that all 4 edges were visible without me needing to use a 
field of view report button. Plus, I did try opting for the automatic 
option in settings, but couldn't see how to use it. The 6 page intro seems a 
bit lacking and I don't understand why, and on this other apps are equally 
guilty, there seems to be a need for multipage introductions, generally saying 
nothing of use and yet requiring the use of the page switching button, a thing 
that often does not work properly.

I shall play with this more, but would like to know, as it is so small, do I 
have to have internet connectivity? Plus, the choice of using VOs built in 
voices would be nice as I, for example, can understand Danniel much easier than 
any other voice.

So, as a first impression I would suggest to anyone to give it a try, costs 
nothing and has been designed for the love of doing it and helping.

Sandy.

 Subject: First impressions of Voice, Take a picture and have it read.
 
 Hi,
 
 Having seen this app mentioned here, I decided, it being free!!! to 
 download it and take it for a spin on my 6 running 8.3.
 
 Once I enabled the camera and turned on the flash, I took a shot of a 
 dog magazine and then did the same with the KNFB Reader app. I have to tell 
 you that, on this one example, this free and tiny app, did as well as the 
 very expensive KNFB reader. I am, by the way, not knocking the latter app, 
 merely wanting to encourage people to give it a try, especially if the KNFB 
 is too pricy for you.
 
 The are a few things that could be improved with the interface. If it 
 were possible to simplify and automate rthat than having to press extra 
 buttons, such as the done button, I would say we have an outstanding 
 winner! Always with the proviso that I have only tried it using one example. 
 I liked the way that the app told me that all 4 edges were visible without 
 me needing to use a field of view report button. Plus, I did try opting 
 for the automatic option in settings, but couldn't see how to use it. The 
 6 page intro seems a bit lacking and I don't understand why, and on this 
 other apps are equally guilty, there seems to be a need for multipage 
 introductions, generally saying nothing of use and yet requiring the use of 
 the page switching button, a thing that often does not work properly.
 
 I shall play with this more, but would like to know, as it is so small, 
 do I have to have internet connectivity? Plus, the choice of using VOs built 
 in voices would be nice as I, for example, can understand Danniel much 
 easier than any other voice.
 
 So, as a first impression I would suggest to anyone to give it a try, 
 costs nothing and has been designed for the love of doing it and helping.
 
 Sandy.

 Sandy,
 
 Yes, you need Internet connectivity at the moment for this app, because it 
 does the OCR on line and provides the speech via Google. This may change in 
 future according to the young man who's developed the app. More info in 
 Applevis podcast no. 29, if I remember rightly. It's well worth a listen.
 
 Vince.

 Yes, I believe you need internet connectivity as there is not a built-in OCR 
 engine with this app. It sends the data to the internet for that function, 
 as far as I understand it.
