Hi, I haven't used tap tap see in a while but now I have the latest version I thought I'd revisit it, I took a picture of my thermostat, not only did it tell me that I had a white digital thermostat, it also told me what temp my house was, now I didn't have any modes on like heat, cool so I was not able to see if it would of told me the temp the stat was set on and what mode it was in, but I was very impressed that this app did this and I will be using it a lot more now. ----- Original Message ----- From: TapTapSee To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Friday, September 13, 2013 3:36 PM Subject: Re: TapTapSee Shopping Experience

I know I Purchased them at a JC Penny store nearby here in the US, so I jumped on the JC Penny.com website to purchase a few new pairs as I absolutely did not want to have to catch a ride and walk around a shopping mall nor tiny isles between racks of clothing at a physical store. Firstly, this JCPenny website must use some sort of Java because I had to do all kinds of crazy stuff to try to get Jaws to read the correct information on my Windows7 computer running Internet Explorer 10. For others who may find themselves on this website, do what I did, and first create an account, then simply load all desired items into your basket and go through the process of checking out (don't worry if you made a mistake in the size you chose). At some point you will see all your items, and at this point you can change the size and amount and quantity per item, and you will also be notified if JC Penny is out of stock for that item. You will be offered the opportunity to speed through by paying with PayPal, which is the path I took. At one point, while on the website, I had to choose the size I wanted to purchase, and I could not recall what size I wore in that style of walking shorts. I took a look at my receipt from long ago when previously purchasing this same style of shorts, and like a dummy I did not document the size of my Docker shorts. At this point I had no choice but to wait around until later tonight to find someone who could read the tags for me, which I did not find pleasing as I had gone through lots of hassle to figure out how to use the website, and I wanted to simply finish what I started. I left the browser open and went to get a little breakfast. At some point while eating, I thought, "...nah, it won't work, but rather than waiting a whole day for someone to help, if I can even find someone, how about using my iPod and TapTapSee to attempt to read the tiny writing on the labels?" I pulled my iPod Touch 5th gen out of my pocket and first tried using Talking Goggles to scan the small labels, and unfortunately this thing failed pretty miserably. I then tried VixWiz, and now hours later, I'm still waiting for the web workers to get back to me. <Smile>. I then tried TapTapSee, and I received a couple of replies conveying the fact that I had taken pictures of my walking shorts as well as conveying the color and such, but since I placed the camera about 1 inch above the inner cloth label, I think it was obvious that I wanted someone to read the label for me. After about 5 tries, someone got the hint and conveyed the size of my current pair of walking shorts. Eureka!--I said to myself--though I used more colorful language. I then scanned a few more pair of shorts and I was informed of the relevant sizes. I was incredibly thrilled that TapTapSee helped me out of yet another jam, which only took about 5 minutes, and now I don't have to wait for someone to come along later today, tomorrow, nor ever for that matter to help me complete my shopping. This kind of thing is something very simple, but something that makes life very easy when your goal is complete independence! I jumped on the JC Penny website and completed my purchase. I don't know if it was the old "mark up then mark down" trick, but I was able to purchase many things on sale, which was a cool unexpected bonus. I'm now waiting for them to deliver my package in a few days. No transportation hassles, no walking through busy isles, no asking for attendants to help me, no entering pin codes or signing for the use of a debit card, no carrying multiple bags on the bus and alike. I love it! Thank you iPod and TapTapSee! Joseph -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
