About this app

Seeing AI is a free app that narrates the world around you. Designed with and for the blind and low vision community, this ongoing research project harnesses the power of AI to open up the visual world by describing nearby people, text and objects.

Seeing AI provides tools to assist with a variety of daily tasks:
• Read - Hear text as soon as it appears in front of the camera. Document alignment provides audio cues to capture a printed page and recognize the text along with its original formatting. Ask Seeing AI about the contents to easily find the information you need.
• Describe - Take photos to hear a rich description. Ask questions to focus on the information you care about. Explore photos by moving your finger over the screen to hear the location of different objects.
• Products - Scan barcodes and Accessible QR codes using audio beeps to guide you; hear the product name and package information when available.
• People - Save photos of friends and coworkers so you can recognize them later. Get an estimate of their age, gender, and expression.
• Currency - Recognize currency notes.
• Colors - Identify colors.
• Light - Hear an audible tone corresponding to the brightness of your surroundings.
• Photos and Videos in other apps - Just tap “Share” and “Recognize with Seeing AI” to describe media from Mail, Photos, WhatsApp, and more.

Seeing AI continues to evolve as we hear from the community, and AI research advances.

For an initial release of an app that has OCR, color detection, people count and description, scene description, and more, very impressive! One break or make test of an OCR app is out of focus text that isn't perfectly straight. Holding a bag of candies and scanning the ingredients, out of focus and not aligned, did quite well! Impressed and will be quite useful for those with limited vision or aging eyes. Definitely fast enough to be used besides magnifying glasses. Fun, fast, useful!

Thanks for the app! Wishlist for future versions: don't lock text recognition language to the device's system, allow for several packs to be downloaded and switching between languages in-app; ideally, make AI recognize the language used in scanned text and switch automatically or warn that the text's language doesn't match any installed pack. An integration with a translation service would be another step forward.

I downloaded this app to assist me with my vision as I am visually impaired. It works usually well, however I have noticed a bug. Whenever I try to delete a recognized face in the "People" tab, it never actually deletes and just comes back. Also, if I may add a suggestion: please make it be able to recognize pets! My daughter has a small black cat and it would be very helpful to be able to identify her as we have dark furniture and I don't want to accidentally harm her. Thank you.

I've just installed the app and so far I love it. However, I do have a question/ suggestion. Can I add people to the "recognizable people" tab using pics I already have on my phone instead of pics taken through the app? If not then I would highly recommend that. I have family and loved ones that I don't get to see often due to distance (my eye specialist said I'm only allowed to drive short distances using familiar routes). I would like to add them to recognizable people but can't take pics
