[NFB-Arkansas] NFB-Arkansas Digest, Vol 102, Issue 7 (QR Scanner)

Thu Sep 14 00:37:30 UTC 2023

I found a scanner that vibrates to tell you when you are on the item.  When
it vibrates, you swipe right and click on the website, as a for instance.
It's called and is free QR Blind.  This is from an Apple This article.  I
found another scanner that is .99 from the Apple App Store called Blind QR.
It speaks to you when you press scan.

The topic of Q R Codes came up during the affiliate meeting Tuesday evening.
I don?t know how I got the code reader into my Control Panel, but I did
recently learn how to access the Control Panel. Focus on the status bar at
the top of the screen and swipe upward with 3 fingers.
The other thing I came across recently on Facebook about Q R Codes is
helpful if you have trouble locating the Q R Code. Someone named Shawn
Welker says there is a place in the Be My Eyes app under Specialized Help,
then Blindness Organizations, then Massachusetts Association for the Blind
and Visually Impaired. A volunteer on there can help you line up your
reader. That is what he says, but I am  trying to figure out if you are
scanning a code, using your phone, and you are also using your phone to call
Be My Eyes, I?m not sure how that part works, so someone who needs help
lining up their phone to scan a code, please try this option out, and let us
know.
Cindy

Life is short and dictation is faster ? please pardon any errors.
