Introducing Eye of Providence, a new iOS app to help the blind identify objects, text and colors

Hi,
I just tested out the app. The app is accessible with the buttons in the app being labeled properly. I will post more feedback on how well it describes each photo I take.

I have a question about the in app purchase. I purchased the in app purchase. Once I use up all of my shots would I have to purchase more each time I run out?

I like how the app will tell you how many shots you have left after you take each photo.

Just tried the app and I am impressed at the detail given well done!

This app seems promising from what I have tried of it so far, however here are a few things that could make it even more useful and the app over all better if added in.
1. When making a i app purchase, voiceover didn't actually read the $$ the in app purchase was to be for. It did say 100 shots or pictures, as you will,but nothing about how much that cost.
Next, is the ability to add pictures from the photo library. What if the picture I want the app to process is already there in my camera role, perhaps from some other place etc.
So, currently the detail given by the app is good enough, it only works if you can shoot photos of the things you want recognise just at that point of time and can't have it load pictures from the camera role.
Good app,still. Keep it up.

How does this differ from Tap Tap See other than having to pay for shots? Is it faster? Is it more accurate?

Cool I'll try it out thanks.

Can you put a feature so the app can access the iPhones photo library to find pictures with text or objects?
Thanks.

How private is the photo and can people access the photo that the user takes?

When viewing the privacy policy for the app, it gives me a 500 internal server error.

When you download the app, how many shots do you get by default?

Hi first of all hads off to you
You made a awsam app, i have tryed ny self
And result are possitive
I have same question, that in app purchase
Does it for life time? And in future updates
When come this feture and other when you add to future updates will get free?
Or we should payed also in future?
Thanks..

With the new update, this app simply rocks!
I tried a few different text photos, and a few pictures with just people in them.
I also ran the text pictures through knfbReader more on that in a moment, and the pictures with objects/people on taptapsee along with this app.
$1.99 for 100 pictures is really, and is specially good for both people who have knfbReader reader and for those that can't simply aford $100 on an application.
On to the results
Text/ocr this app bate knfbReader reader,hands down. I didn't take the picture for any of the apps,but used a picture I already had on my phone, and man, oh man. There's the difference of miles and miles between the 2.
KnfbReader, did a good job, but this app did it better. Where knfbReader mangled words, I didn't notice any in this app.
So, if you are like me,and have to use a ocr app to read notices and the like, this app would suit you perfect, along with identification of clothing colours etc, no need to run to 2 different apps.
Object recognition though, wasn't as good as taptapsee, where as taptapsee obviously was better, and was able to tell me the picture was of a woman in a sleeveless black dress, this app just told me the colours, and something about hairstyles.
The quick update for the access to library feature is truely appreciated! Thank you!
I did try to write a review on the appstore, but tapping on the review this app button did nothing, some issue with the store,maybe?
I sure do intend to write a 5star review about this app.

Can you put a feature in which you can change voices to the highest quality?

Hi. I double-tapped the camera button and it didn't say if I was using the back facing or the front facing camera. Is this a bug?

I was looking at this thread, does this app identify bar codes? For example, where I work, we get stickers with bar codes for the various labels we do. I get mixed results with camfind, which I have had results on. Haven't tried KNFB reader with these labels to determine if it would give me anything. Also, unless I missed it, there was not an answer in regards to how many shots we get when first downloading the app, and i'd like to know that. I am going to get it, but won't use it until i see an answer to this one. $1.99 for 100 shots isn't bad. This does sound very interesting, and I might try this app on some print at some point although I've had good luck with knfb reader, especially when someone sighted helped me align the camera during a class. Keep up the great work, and do let us know how many shots we get by default.

Is there a way to integrate the app into Facebook so that if there is an image on facebook with text, you can just tap it and your app will recognize the text? This would be much easier than downloading the image from Facebook and then converting it. there are tons of memes on Facebook, with images and text, that I currently can't access. The automated Facebook image description tool just says image may contain text.

Can you put a feature where you can save the pictures to your camera roll after you have taken the picture?

Hi. I've been test driving this app and I'm pleased to report that this app has read all my printed mail and documents without any mangled text and I have taken screenshots of PDF files that weren't accessible and the app processed the text with no issues at all. I can't believe how good this app is as I wasn't expecting a great deal from it when I first read about it on here earlier this month. The business model for this app is ideal for those who can't afford to spend £79 on KNFB Reader and this app is now my main tool for reading my daily mail. You will always get my support. I do have a feature request and that is to import a PDF file but it's not a big deal if that can't be implemented as the screenshot method works magnificently well. Once again I congradulate you on developing a great app that gives us the users more independence in our daily lives.

Hi. Sometimes when I take a photo, it takes a long time to process the image. I have to close the app and then reopen it. I tested this app with a package of poptarts and tested with apple sause. When I tested this app with plane milk, it read the text.

just got the new app discussed earlier and noticed the following things:)
1. all buttons labelled right:)
2. snapped a photo of a page of text and it got the text right.
here is 2 queries i have. 1. there is no indicator of shots left. when i snapped a photo of some text it never spoke shots left. Can you integrate that status item in app like to the right of take picture or to the right of go to text view? then you'd kbnow how many shots you have left and how many you have if you choose to make a purchase:)
keep up the fine work:) PS: also how would you know if your camera is focused right at object for best shot if no tone/beep is done?
hhave a good one:)
if you want to email me see my profile for contact info:)

Hi. Since upgrading to the iPhone 7 +! The app no longer processes the image after taking a snap. I have 110 credits and I have re-installed the app and still the app won't work properly.

Hi, First of all, congratulations on a fantastic app. I purchased 100 snapshots using my iPad, thinking that they would also be available on my iPhone, but I only had 10 snapshots when I installed the app on my iPhone. Is there a way to transfer the 100 snapshots to my iPhone since I would much rather have them available on the phone? Thanks in advance for any help. Jason
