This is the app which I have truly. I downloaded it when it was free and have speech recognition and microphone enabled. I'll continue to play with it more. Thank you.

There is nothing about photos in my settings for Voice. He hasn't changed the name that shows up in settings yet from just plain Voice, to Voice OCR, though that is its name in the app store.

However it says photos set to never and when I DT to try to change the option I can't. There is an option next to it which says "read and write". I tried to DT that hoping that it would deactivate the "never" choice. Thank you for your assistance. I usually don't have this much difficulty, LOL!

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.

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.

To: IPhone Sent: Tuesday, July 02, 2019 2:50 AM 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.
