Accidentally I took a picture of myself and it said "picture of yellow pullover". At the time I was wearing a yellow sweatshirt. I also wanted to know what kind of soup I was going to have. When I took the picture, at first it said, "picture of a blue can", then when I took another picture, it said "picture of Progresso chicken soup can". You have to finagle it some before you get a full "picture" no pun intended, of what you're taking. I took a picture of my Bluetooth keyboard and it told me that it was a picture of a computer keyboard. Enjoy the app!</div><div><br></div><div>Esther<br><br>Sent from Esther's Amazing iPhone!</div><div><br>On Mar 22, 2013, at 12:41 PM, <a href="mailto:Blindhands@aol.com">Blindhands@aol.com</a> wrote:<br><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div>

camera app for blind people. Sure, any partially or non-sighted person could
just snap bad, out-of-focus pictures of their shoes, or of the backs of their
friends heads, with any camera app. But only Tap Tap See will then say to them,
out loud, “Shoes,” or “Head.”</span></font></p>

that?”</span></font></p>

just point it at something and double-tap the screen. It’ll tell you it has
snapped a picture (“Photo 5 taken,” or something similar) and then, a few
seconds later, it’ll read out the result. I pointed it at my legs, as any good,
lazy blogger is bound to do with a new camera app, and the app said “blue
jeans.” I tried it with my iPhone (“Apple iPhone”), and a ceiling lamp (“hanging
lamp”). </span></font></p>
