Just took the plunge and got it. I couldn’t believe how quickly it scanned and how accurate the scan was. To echo Reggie, wow!!! How does it handle material in columns? The document I scanned had no columns.

I agree, this is one of the best if not the best scanning app I’ve used so far. I ran a number of tests on a few complex documents and on some documents that were not very clear. In all cases with no exception VDS came on top.

I just tried VDS. Wow, is all I can say! Compared to other scanners out there it outshines them all. I just took a piece of paper, put phone down in the middle, lifted it up to where the tone was fairly steady and took the picture. First try, great OCR! Never before on any of these apps did I even come close on Ocr the first time! My hands shake too much. However, VDS was immediate! Impressed.

It’s a free and competitive market and one wonders why KNFB Reader costs $100 and Voice Dream Scanner $5.99. KNFB Reader was developed by the NFB and I assume they do get grants and such whereas Voice Dream Scanner is developed by a guy who I assume does not. Maybe Winston has other income than that from his various apps, but the same applies to the Seeing Eye GPS, at an outright purchase price of $299 it is pretty expensive especially since Sendero also received a lot of grants to develop it.

I’m doing scans at our diningroom table with no lights on and am getting consistently good results.

I did read through some mail this morning but felt that as I worked through what I had, there may have been a degradation in scan quality after doing and discarding several documents. I tried closing the program and restarting and finally got something which identified what I had, but just wondering if anyone else has noted this. It might have been that I was set up at my kitchen table and I am personally not as comfortable out there as I am in my big chair, page in my lap, phone to the center of the document, lifting and positioning properly to get picture. I will play with it some more. Overall, impressed and pleased and think it will ultimately be useful until or if NFB gets things back in action with KNFB Reader. Russ, Thank you as well for that link. That demonstration was clearer to hear, and I learned a lot of things with the descriptives there regarding settings which I can try and work with as well. I am pleased with the purchase. Thanks again for everyone’s help. Smiles to all, Dianne and the Fur Crew -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
