RE: Read labels on cans
The PenFriend 2 is a great product, but you need someone to tell you what the item is before you can record your label. If you don’t have a sighted person around, the apps previously mentioned would work, or you could use Be My Eyes and always have a sighted volunteer to read you the label. Then, either with a PenFriend for around $180 dollars, or a slate and stylus with dymo tape, you could label the item.

Re: Read labels on cans
Seeing AI Product channel can work great to get the bar code which may contain more information an you can read on the label because of the curve. But, if you just want to know what it is and not any other details, TapTapSee is also very good and it is made by the same folks who do CamFind, but it doesn't try to show you ads about where you can buy said product. TapTapSee is designed for the blind for identifying objects of all kinds. Both Seeing AI and TapTapSee are free.
