[Ohio-Talk] voice dream reader

[dkkendrick at earthlink.net]

Hi Cheryl, 
Thee two apps are how I read tons of things every single day. 
But they are totally separate. You can use one and not the other.  
Voice Dream Scanner is an OCR app. You use it to take a picture of a page of
print and it reads it aloud to you.  I live by myself and have used this app
to read my mail every day for a long while now. It is amazing. It reads
everything so well -- bills and ads and magazines and receipts and any other
piece of print that floats you're your world!
Voice Dream Reader is an app for managing reading. I usually read the mail
right therein scanner, but you have the option to save. SO if, for instance,
you get a long document of three or four pages, you could scan the whole
thing with Voice Dream Scanner and asave it. When you open Voice Dream
Reader, there is an Add button which you use to add documents from other
sources. The three I draw from most are Scanner, BookShare, and Dropbox.  
So you add the document you have scanned from scanner. Now, it is in Voice
Dream Reader so you can read the whole thing, go forward and back, move by
paragraph or sentence or word or whatever. 
If this is more information than you needed, please forgive me. I just love
sharing things that are so beneficial to me, so others can reap the same
benefits.
Peace,
Deborah

I looked at voice dream reader  on the internet. Is this mainly for someone
who wants to use audio reading and large print together?  I believe that a
voice dream scanner is mentioned as being necessary when using the voice
dream reader. Is that correct?

I don't use it, but I heard that Voice Dream Scanner works well and is
around $5.00. I may have the amount wrong. I use Voice Dream Reader and I
love it.

Does anyone out there use an app with an iPhone or an android phone to take
a picture of written material and hear it read to them? If so, what app do
you like and is there a difference between how well it performs on iPhone or
android?

Also, does anyone out there use bar code reader apps? Which work best?

Cheryl
