<div>Thanks, Nancy! It's great knowing one app is sdort of like the proverbial Swiss Army Knife; it takes care of so many things. The Microsoft people know all this, but I'm sure they are like any developers and are happy to know their product is in use. </div><div><br></div><div>I mentioned earlier I'd like to present a persuasive argument to Microsoft to roll Seeing AI out for Android. There are similar apps out there, but I don't have time to go through all of them. Would prefer Microsoft makes it available. Don't worry, I won't name names, but I do want to tell them how their app is being used by Real People I personally know. None of the,"well, my friend said her cousin's daughter said...

<div>Hey Julian! Thanks! Was wondering, What do you like best? Just reading about it it sounds like it can do almost everything. I know people who have bought the color identifier for $30 or something like that. It's a separate thing you carry around. I never bought one, but I found a color app. (I have problems with dark blue and black). It would be nice to have all that software in one place!</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>How is the speed? Do you have to wait for it sometimes?

Good seeing you yesterday! Got a question for people with iPhones or other iOS devices. Have you tried Microsoft's fe app, Seeing AI? Microsoft published it c in 2016. Julian may have had a Tech Talk about it too. I read this January 2018 review from college student Veronica With Four Eyes. Her post was quite informative, but I was wondering if you had tried it and your opinions. There may be latency depending on the version of software or the speed of your device. </div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>If you use Seeing AI do you hold your smartphone in your hand or do you use a Head's-Up-Device (HUD)?</div><div><br clear="none"></div><div>Unfortunately, there isn't an Android version.
