★★★★☆

I have been using this app for a while now, and I love what It does. Reading denominations on money is great. Reading the tiny print they use in product manuals (pamphlets) is impossible these days, so I usually take a picture and then blow it up so I can read it. This app has put an end to that. I are hold it up for a second, and it starts reading. You don't even have to keep it on the page once it starts reading My problem, the explore mode won't shut up. I can't find the setting for slow

There's a very serious bug. For the voice announcements, it would appear that Lookout uses Android's accessibility audio stream, which uses a separate volume slider and controls. Unfortunately, Lookout doesn't enable access to these separate volume controls, so if it's not right, you can't change it! The only workaround is to, at least temporarily, enable the use of another accessibility service that *does* reveal the controls for the speech volume, such as TalkBack or Select to Speak.

I wanted this to read subtitles on the TV. Quite useless for this as it is continually announcing "No text in view" and, when it does find something it gives a loud click before reading it. You cannot turn these features off so useless for what could have been wonderful for someone with partial sight loss. I also feel it is a bit too slow reading for UK TV subtitles.

I love the idea. But needs better user interface for a visually impaired person. Small menus mean its almost impossible to navigate. Needs better integration with gemini as the camera mode and voice are miles ahead in Gemini. Voice interaction, room mapping and voice guidance would make this perfect. Also a large one button widget for the homescreen to open the app.
