[Home-on-the-range] [IDevices] identifier apps

[Cindy Ray]

Do  you have Tap tap See? I really can't get it to work, but money reader is great for money. I see potential. Maybe I'm holding the thing wrong. I did get it to identify a power cord and a desk top speaker; it also identified that the can was a can of food, and it said that it was soup. So maybe I'm just using it incorrectly.

Hugs,
Cindy
