[Electronics-talk] First Look at the kNFB Reader on the iPod Touch 5

[James Aldrich]

Hi Christine, 


I too downloaded the KNFB Reader and it does a fine job!  I also found  it on my IPod Touch 5.  I scanned a document and I thought the IPod 5 did a fine  job of scanning and reading!  I was impressed!  I intend to use it occasionally on my IPod Touch on occasion!  I'll probably use it on my IPhone much of the time!  The Knfb people don't back the product when it is not in use on an IPhone!  I understand this but I won't discourage you from using it  with your IPod!

Jim

It did so with high accuracy and it even recognized the correct rotation of my device and was able to properly guide me without vision easily to get a good focus. Also, it read back within 1-2 sec or less on a single page scan and only took about 5 sec to process a two-page scan. It is incredibly easy to use and is really strait forward!
