I would love to know how you use talking goggles.  I have tried it and can 
only get it to spew a few words here and there that are completely 
irrelevant and can not get it to do what it claims.  Any help would be 
appreciated.

  Hello Robin,


  I do so agree with you. I use Talking Goggles more than any other object 
recognition app. I also use Tap Tap See and CamFind, but Talking Goggles is 
more informative. For instance, TapTapSee will identify a can of dog food, 
but Talking Goggles will tell me which variety it is.


  Cheers,


  Anne

    Dear listers
    I have seen that there have been dozens of Tap Tap See and Camfind  msgs 
flying around and I’ve read a few but by no means all so apols if this has 
been covered but I just want to reiterate the jawdroppingly useful app that 
is Talking Goggles. I can’t recall how much it is but it’s certainly no more 
than a few dollars (if not free) – I can’t check as I already own it – and 
it’s certainly nowhere near X dollars a month that Tap Tap See has become, 
and yet I use it all the time to great effect.
    I have a 5S so admittedly a good camera but only this morning my 
computer stopped talking to me while I had about 10 different apps open and 
all half way through something and before I went nuclear with the power 
button I thought I’d try Talking Goggles and it read out to me the message 
about IE having stopped working and the Send/Don’t send thing. I know I 
could have got out of this by trial and error with some keystrokes but I 
knew that even hitting Escape on the wrong thing could have been bad news.
    And this is just one example. So long as you have good bandwidth (as it’s 
live video it’s processing) you can just point it at anything and it usually 
reads it or recognises it just fine. I know it’s not perfect but I also know 
that it’s invaluable and doesn’t have the drawbacks of either having to take 
multiple snap and hope images or having to pay big bucks (or should that be 
plenty of pounds) for it either.
    I should end by saying that I’m not as familiar with the other apps as I 
am with this one so please don’t consider this as an anti-the-others msg, 
just a pro-Talking Goggles one.
    Thanks, Robin.
