Holding it too close may be part of my problem. I don't hear the beeps with
Voice Dream Scanner and I rarely get the 4-corners notification with Voice OCR.
Everything else is set correctly, so I will try holding it higher.
Thanks.

If you go to your main iPhone settings, and scroll down to Voice,
you should have three settings that need to be on.
Microphone, Speech Recognition, and Camera.

My volume on my phone is set to 75 percent. With Voice, which setting do
you find or change in order to cause it to vocally read? Oddly enough it worked
well before the update. I deleted and reinstalled the app. In settings I find
voice speed and language but am not finding how to enable the verbal prompts.

They both work great on my SE.
I'm not sure why some people cannot hear the tones in Voice Dream
Scanner, maybe it is the pitch, or the volume is not high enough, but Voice
Dream Scanner does not need as much height as some apps.
Both apps work fine even in poor lighting.
With Voice OCR, if you gave it permission to use the microphone, you
should be able to say, "capture, and have it take the photo, and then say
"read" and have it recognize the text and read it to you.
Both apps have a button to double tap and if you have the phone roughly
as far above the item, as the item is tall, they should work. Though, as I
said, Voice Dream Scanner can be a little lower.
Perhaps get sighted assistance and have someone say when the document is
in the camera view, until you can get the hang of it.
HTH,
Richard

I have had a delay when processing with Voice OCR app and cannot find
the setting where you set it to voice read or capture picture. With Voice Dream
Scanner I can never hear the beeps for paper position and I am also wondering
if it might be my SE phone although other apps work well.

Subject: Another Question On Dream Scanner & Voice OCR
Good Morning,
Although I have listened to demos and followed instructions on
getting both of these scanners to work on my phone, neither work well. I'm a
relatively intelligent person, I think anyway, so I'm wondering if part of the
issue couldn't be with my phone. I am updated to the latest IOS, but using an
SE phone. All of the podcasts and advice I have received has been from people
using much newer phones.
Have others using the SE had luck with using these scanners, and if
so, any advice?
Thanks.
Vicki
