You should really engage with your local blind community resource centers. Not only will they have people and equipment but also training. There might be a few apps out there to help but unfortunately the level of technology innovation isn’t were it should be to provided for all the items in your list. Squeaky wheels will get the grease. I’d encourage you to take initiative to design some products and recruit people to help realize them.

Be my eyes. Is an app that allows you to video call sighted people to help you do things. I tend to use after applying makeup to ensure that I don't have any smudges underneath my eyes and everything looks smooth and blended. you should also consider decluttering your place and have a set place for each and every item.

I've got an android, but I'm gonna search for something similar.
I live in Denmark, so hopefully it can identify the DKK.

I will try that, thank you.

Seeing AI doesn’t exist for android.

If you search for accessible android on google you should find stuff. The same thing should happen with vi apps for android.

Regular gadgets are helpful most of the other one are braille devices or displays.

You don't mention any apps that you are using already so... Seeing AI for iPhone or Envision AI for Android and iPhone will help with reading and some object identification

If you lose stuff constantly you can habitually put things in their place and ONLY in their place. Or you can spend a ton of money on tile trackers. Or a little from both categories.

I have no advice regarding makeup

You also don't mention Screen readers... Are you using one on your phone/computer already?

Hope that helps a little.

I don't use any apps, I've got no clue on where to begin. Thanks for the advice.

I was looking for something like tiletrackers, so that's really helpful. Thank you. I try to put things in a dedicated space, but I tend to forget. I will try to organize more, it's really great advice.

I haven't tried screenreaders yet, but I'm gonna try that too.

Thanks for the advice, it was really helpful.
