Hi Eileen,

 

If you are going to get KNFB Reader you might as well get it, it is my guess 
that the optical image stabilization of the 6 Plus will not make a huge 
difference. KNFB Reader already has a lot of built in help to take the best 
picture possible and while the 6 and 6 Plus have a new sensor with slightly 
larger pixel size, it is still an 8 MP camera and much the same as on a 5S.

Hello Jonathan,





Your first impressions of the KNFB app is encouraging. At this time, I'm going 
to have to be on the sidelines until I decide on which iPhone 6 I will 
purchase. This is my question to this thread. For those who invest in the KNFB 
Reader app and have purchased either an iPhone 6 or 6 plus, it would be 
terrific to post on the accuracy of the app in comparison to the phone that 
they originally installed the app on. Also, if one can also comment on the use 
of the app with the 6 plus in particular because of the optical stabilization. 
ANOTHER person read my mind regarding if your use of the app was with the 
StandScan or with some other type of stand. 





Thanks so much for your first impressions.





Best,

Eileen

Jonathan,

So is the KNFB reader app now available in the app store?  

 

Also, are you using a stand to take the scans/pics, or are you just holding the 
phone over the page or item?  

 

Thanks so much, this is very encouraging!

Subject: KNFB Reader, First Impressions

 

I've spent the last half hour or so playing with KNFB Reader on my iPhone 5s. I 
couldn't be more impressed.

I read my son's school report, which it got word perfect even when it came to 
reading tables. It read a glossy pizza menu fairly well. It read the page of a 
book perfectly, and it read a letter I received in the mail. The feedback one 
gets via vibration to line up the picture is incredibly helpful. You can use 
the field of view report if you need to for even more information about camera 
positioning and angle.

And, it's fast. Very fast, between taking a picture and getting speech.

It's early days but this has actually exceeded my expectations. Certainly it's 
possible to use other apps, but I've found nothing this simple, fast, or 
accurate without any additional aids. Outstanding stuff.
