Hello all

Some information for your holiday gift-giving from National and the
KNFB Reader team:

“Make the print your gift this Christmas with KNFB Reader. KNFB Reader
is a mobile app that converts printed text into high quality speech to
provide accurate, fast, and efficient access to both single- and
multiple-page documents with the tap of a button. Make the print yours
and live the life you want! The app is available for iOS and Android
devices. From December 21, 2015, through January 4, 2016, you can
purchase KNFB Reader for $74.99, 25% off the store price.
Giving KNFB Reader as a gift is easy! You can obtain iTunes or Google
Play gift cards at many local retailers such as Target or Walmart, or
online at Amazon.com. To redeem iTunes gift cards, open the App Store,
scroll down to the bottom of the page under ”Featured,” and choose
“Redeem.” You will need to sign in using your Apple ID, and then you
will be prompted to use your phone’s camera to photograph the bar code
on the gift card, or enter the redemption code from the card manually.
To redeem a Google Play gift card, choose the Navigation button in the
upper left corner, then scroll down and choose ”Redeem,” and enter the
redemption code located on the Google Play gift card.
You can gift KNFB Reader iOS directly to someone by opening the App
Store, and searching for KNFB Reader. Once you find the app, select
the “Share” button at the top of the screen near the “Back” button,
then choose that and then choose “Gift.” This will bring up a screen
for you to enter the recipient’s email address (you will need to use
the email address they have linked to their Apple ID). Then you may
choose to add a message and set the date to send your gift.
Why use this app? KNFB Reader is an easy, fast, accurate, and
efficient text recognition mobile app that delivers near instantaneous
results. Tired of being unsure what’s been charged to your credit
card? Want to know who sent you that package? Need nutritional
information from a food label? Find a book that’s not available on
NLS? Buy a new appliance and want to access the user’s manual? KNFB
Reader is your go-to: it has reading modes for books, articles,
labels, bills, and memos. Worried about getting a good photo of your
text as a blind person? KNFB Reader provides a field of view report
and tilt guidance for more accurate capturing of print in the
photograph, as well as automatic text detection. You’ll get the right
photo; KNFB Reader will help you. The app allows for high quality
digital output to speech or connected Braille displays. The scanned
material can be imported as a .jpg or .pdf, or exported in .txt and
.html formats. Not much space on your phone? No problem. Use cloud
storage for your files via Dropbox or Google Drive! The app also has a
batch scan mode to process and read multiple-page documents such as
manuals or books. Don’t let print be out of your reach ever again.
To purchase KNFB Reader, visit www.nfb.org/knfbreader. Make the print
yours and live the life you want!
Happy Holidays from your KNFB Reader Team.”

Hope you are doing well and a very merry holidays (whatever form they may take)!

 "The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
 characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
 expectations of blind people, because low expectations create
 obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life
 you want; blindness is not what holds you back."
