“Make the print your gift this Christmas with KNFB Reader. KNFB Reader is a 
mobile app that converts printed text into high quality speech to provide 
accurate, fast, and efficient access to both single- and multiple-page 
documents with the tap of a button. Make the print yours and live the life 
you want! The app is available for iOS and Android devices. From December 
21, 2015, through January 4, 2016, you can purchase KNFB Reader for $74.99, 
25% off the store price.



Giving KNFB Reader as a gift is easy! You can obtain iTunes or Google Play 
gift cards at many local retailers such as Target or Walmart, or online at 
Amazon.com. To redeem iTunes gift cards, open the App Store, scroll down to 
the bottom of the page under ”Featured,” and choose “Redeem.” You will need 
to sign in using your Apple ID, and then you will be prompted to use your 
phone’s camera to photograph the bar code on the gift card, or enter the 
redemption code from the card manually. To redeem a Google Play gift card, 
choose the Navigation button in the upper left corner, then scroll down and 
choose ”Redeem,” and enter the redemption code located on the Google Play 
gift card.



You can gift KNFB Reader iOS directly to someone by opening the App Store, 
and searching for KNFB Reader.  Once you find the app, select the “Share” 
button at the top of the screen near the “Back” button, then choose that and 
then choose “Gift.” This will bring up a screen for you to enter the 
recipient’s email address (you will need to use the email address they have 
linked to their Apple ID). Then you may choose to add a message and set the 
date to send your gift.



Why use this app? KNFB Reader is an easy, fast, accurate, and efficient text 
recognition mobile app that delivers near instantaneous results. Tired of 
being unsure what’s been charged to your credit card? Want to know who sent 
you that package? Need nutritional information from a food label? Find a 
book that’s not available on NLS?  Buy a new appliance and want to access 
the user’s manual? KNFB Reader is your go-to:  it has reading modes for 
books, articles, labels, bills, and memos. Worried about getting a good 
photo of your text as a blind person? KNFB Reader provides a field of view 
report and tilt guidance for more accurate capturing of print in the 
photograph, as well as automatic text detection. You’ll get the right photo; 
KNFB Reader will help you. The app allows for high quality digital output to 
speech or connected Braille displays. The scanned material can be imported 
as a .jpg or .pdf, or exported in .txt and .html formats. Not much space on 
your phone? No problem. Use cloud storage for your files via Dropbox or 
Google Drive! The app also has a batch scan mode to process and read 
multiple-page documents such as manuals or books. Don’t let print be out of 
your reach ever again.
