Because they add so little even though they keep bragging about bringing the most requested features to each update, which ends up being mostly minor bug fixes, I have to give them credit for the December 22, 2023 update where the AI engine seems to have been added.
I just took a picture of a painting on my wall and it did an excellent job describing it. In fact, it gave better details than Be My eyes, which shocks me to no end. The painting is of a mountainous scene with a tree in the foreground and an eagle flying over the main portion of the painting. SuperSense got all the key details. Be My Eyes missed the eagle entirely. Score 1 for SuperSense. In fact, score 2 for supersense. I'm sending a new message comparing Supersense AI with Be My Eyes on another picture...

I use some grocery items that do not have barcodes available. Once I make the custom label it generally sticks. Only once have I lost a custom label after an app update. I should really begin getting more mileage out of the app. Especially since the latest improvements. I have always liked it especially for the barcodes.
