Hi,
I find the app for PeaPod Delivers to be very user friendly in conjunction
with VoiceOver as is their web site. though they're affiliated with Giant
Super markets in some states note they are a national service which partners
with different markets in the areas they serve. On their site they have a
search wherein you can put your zip code to see if they service your area.
I have ordered from them, from Fresh Direct and from
www.netgrocer.com
which is affiliated with Shoprite markets.
All are quite usable in my opinion.
I haven't anyone here to help me identify things but I too have an ID mate
and I can count on one hand the canned or bottled goods it hasn't been able
to identify for me.
As for fresh perishables on rare occasions I'll get something that isn't to
my liking and if it's bad enough I merely call and get a credit for the item
in question but over-all they do rather well.
Another helpful feature PeaPod at least offers are text and email
notifications alerting you that within your delivery window your delivery is
next as well as letting you know your driver has arrived.
It's quite a handy feature for making one feel more secure.
I hope that helps.
Robin

delivery
The Peapod app is quite usable on the iPhone. It is the app for Giant
supermarket though I'm not sure if they are a local or national chain. It's
so handy having groceries delivered. I love it.
As for identifying stuff, I have a sighted husband so that's not an issue
most of the time.

Hi all, I am thinking of starting to have my groceries delivered. I have
some questions though. I am totally blind and live by myself. I don't have
a home care provider or anyone that comes in to do those things. I do have
people who bring me grocery shopping, but I know that there are grocery
delivery services and I thought about trying them. Here are my questions:
If you do have groceries delivered, how do you know which items are which?
If anyone has ordered fresh foods such as vegetables are they of good
quality when you get them? How do you know what canned goods are what? I
have triedany of the Apps for reading cans and packages. I also have an I
D mate quest, but sometimes the items cannot be found either in the apps
are on the quest. That is why I was asking how you know what is what. Any
ideas opinions suggestions etc. would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
all very much, and God bless, Wren Langley
