When receiving a debt card, how do you read its information? (self.Blind)
submitted by Raccoon_Tail33
I've always had someone read it to me, but there's going to be a time when there won't be. Are there any apps that read the card information?

Some banks let you request Braille cards, if you know any Braille. Apple phones also let you take pictures of the card and store it on your phone.

Are you serious? Hmmm...guess I'll check if mine does that.

It’s for apple wallet! A lot of major stores in the US take it, maybe the UK too?

Seeing A.I.

Aside from scanning barcodes everything is done locally on your phone and it has many channels that you can might find useful

I don't have enough vision to take a picture and read the text. Sorry for not specifying.

You don’t need vision. Put the card on the table lift the phone up above the card a bit and take one.

I would use and do it in an ocr app I’ve done this before in voice dream scanner and it did the job so well. I’ve figured out my cards that way.
