Hello everybody,
I know that there are products out there that can read bar codes, and do other things as well. Every once when a product is discussed, I do sometimes at least read part of the thread. However, in all honesty, I wish I would have now payed more attention. In a week, I am moving in to a 1 bedroom. I have had a roommate for a while now, but I feel I need to give it a shot, and live more independently. While I have certainly done this before, it has been some time. While it's not as though I will always be alone, I would like to help myself as much as I can. I would like to find some products that will do these sorts of things. Read CD titles, (Yes I do still have some of those) Read DVD titles read labels on cans read packages of boxed foods, or such things as packages of chips, cookies, crackers, and even containers of ice cream. I would also like an App that might tell me what cans of soda I am getting out. Usually I try to put these in a certain order, but they can get mixed up. Also, with the boxed food, being able to read directions would be quite helpful. I don't know if such Apps exist. I would like to find one that is quite accessible, and that I would most likely just have to pay a 1-time fee for. I don't really want to have to spend more than $50, as money will be tight. But depending on the App, and what kind of feedback I receive, I may be willing to pay a little more. I had Tap-Tap See a while back. This was when you didn't have to purchase it. I did get it to tell me what ice cream I pulled out of the fridge once. But unfortunately, I am pretty much hopeless when trying to use the camera. I know this will need to improve quite well. But I just don't know how to make that happen. I have heard of the Apps such as, Be My Eyes, and Identefy. I apologize if that one is spelled incorrectly. However, I don't have a clue as to how they work, or how they are different. I know that I could get descriptions from AppleVis, and I do plan to view the site. But honestly, it helps best for me to learn from all of you, much better. For instance, I can follow steps I get, and even though you all give opinions, it does usually help me to make decisions. Plus, I can archive the message to look back to them, and not have to repeat some of the same questions. I really prefer to not do that! So if any of you could give me some ideas, or thoughts, or advice, I surely would be grateful! If you would prefer to contact me off-list, as to not clutter up the list, please feel free to do so.
