[Nfbmo] FW: Restaurant Menu App for Blind People

[Gary Wunder]

Thank you, sir. I am glad to hear this. I fear that some folks don't
research to see if what they are about to build has already been built. I am
sure that for him this has been a labor of love.

Hello Gary and all. In response to your post, thought you would like to know
that there are already at least three applications which were all provide
this service. Grub hub all access and all menus each provide information
about restaurants from close to you too far away from you. In each case you
can search for a particular restaurant or cuisine of specific restaurants in
your area. These apps are all very accessible using voice over. Merry
Christmas Fred Olver

created a restaurant menu app that is 100% compatible with the iOS
Accessibility feature and Google Talk Back. Blind People and people with low
vision now have the ability to read restaurant menus via their smartphones.
My goal since day one, was to enhance the restaurant experience for my
brother, sister, 2 cousins, and individuals such as yourselves who suffer
from vision loss.  I invite you to download the app from either iTunes or
Google Play.  The app is called Tappy Menu. Your feedback is greatly
appreciated.

Pickle.  My next challenge is to continue to add as many restaurant
companies to the app as possible.  I'm currently in discussion with
companies such as Sonic Drive in America, Bojangles, Jerry's Subs and Pizza,
and about 10 other companies.

I would like to attend and present the app, its functionality, and how the
app is intended to enhance the restaurant experience for the visually
impaired.
