Hello All,
 
I just want to take this opportunity to put in a major plug for the B My AI
feature in the B My Eyes app. My husband Greg introduced it to me earlier
this year, and it is awesome! Basically, you point your phone at what you
want to identify, click on the take picture button, and Be My AI describes
the item to you. Of course it isn't perfect, but it does an excellent job of
describing things! I have used it on all kinds of items, including vitamin
and medication bottles, food packaging, greeting cards, nicknacks, clothing,
the control panels of appliances, and Christmas tree ornaments. It even
reads handwriting! This feature in the Be My Eyes app had been out for a
while before I learned bout it, so I wanted to make sure all of you are
aware of it so you can try it out. 
 
Yesterday I had fun using it on my collection of whimsical boxes, as I had
forgotten what a lot of them were. Some of the boxes have tiny scenes
inside, and the app described those scenes in detail along with describing
the box itself (they are all in different shapes such as a snowman,
gingerbread man, etc.). It was such fun to have this pseudo pair of eyes to
help me thoroughly enjoy and appreciate my box collection!
 
Best wishes,
