New app, Aipoly Vision. What else are you guys using? (self.Blind)
submitted by emwells
Just read this newsweek article about Aipoly Vision, a new adaptive app that helps the visually impaired identify objects and their surroundings. Sounds pretty cool, has anyone used it here? Also have heard of Be My Eyes, and Aria.io and was wondering what other software tools you guys are using to get around and do things. Link to article below: $1

The specialized apps I use daily would be Blindsquare, VoiceDream Reader, KNFB Reader, and Seeing AI.

Why is all this stuff only for iPhone :/

The vOICe is for Andriod, if you want to try it.

Because the Android screen reader is in a distant second place compared to voiceover on IPhone.

I've heard from my uncle who's blind that the iPhone is the most user friendly phone for the visually impaired... curious if android/apple programming capabilities are different when it comes to these kinds of software needs.

The vOICe for Android on Google Play https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=vOICe.vOICe and more info at http://www.seeingwithsound.com/android.htm with use of sub-$200 Android smart glasses discussed at http://www.seeingwithsound.com/android-glasses.htm

Tinder. Hehehe.

Everyone has already mentioned the big ones. There is VizWiz, but I haven't used that in forever.

Recently made an app called Perigo Sight that functions similarly to Aipoly but uses natural language to describe scenes. Feel free to check it out at $1. I put a lot of time into this and am open to any feedback!
