Hi Janet,
I think that voice stream scanner is definitely the best scanning OCR 
application for your iPhone. I get much better results than I do with Seeing AI 
or KnFB. That app has actually deteriorated since it first came out in my 
opinion. I think he would be happy spending the six dollars for a Voice Dream 
scanner.
