[Nfb-krafters-korner] Awesome I phone App

You do take a photo and then within a few seconds it announces what the
picture is.

>From what they are saying it is not reading barcodes, it is telling you  
what is seen in the picture.  I am not sure if they are taking pictures or  
just pointing the IPhone camera at what they want described.
 
It is utterly amazing what these phones can do and these aps are programmed 
 to do.

Hi,

I am sorry to be posting about unrelated topics, but  this app would be so 
great for all who have an I phone, Ipod, or Ipad.   It is called " tap tap
see".             You should search for those terms in the app  store.
Why is it Awesome you ask?  I downloaded it today, picked up a  scane of 
yarn which still had the sleeve on it, pointed the camera at it, took  a 
picture, and within 5 to 10 seconds, I knew it was my " baby blanket yarn,
white 
bundle".  I was excited so I took it to the kitchen, grabbed a box  of 
hamburger helper, because I knew the shape of the box.  I didn't know  for
sure 
what variety it was and just a few seconds I knew it was beef  stroganoff!  
Oh yes and the best part is this app is free!!!!!

I  can't wait to take it with me shopping and make a zillion photos and not 
have  to ask my family what something  is!



Jill
