Reading Documents

[Vikki] Hi, I'm Vikki Vaughan, and in this workshop we'll explore reading a document. We'll be using one of the most popular apps for people with visual impairments on the market today. Seeing AI is an app that uses the camera on our phone to read text aloud. This app not only reads text, but also identifies products, describes pictures, and identifies currency.

Best of all, Seeing AI is completely free. If you don't have it yet, head over to the app store on your iPhone, type in Seeing AI, and it should come right up. You can also find a link to the app in the resources below this workshop. This series is designed for people with low vision using Apple devices. If you use Android, you'll be happy to know, we also have a Seeing AI series that's made just for your phone. If you use your device with a screen reader, be sure to check out our series for using Seeing AI with voiceover on your iPhone or TalkBack on your Android phone.

[Narrator] Now that you've had a chance to learn a bit with us, we'd like to learn more about you, your email address, name, how you heard about Hadley, and your relationship to vision loss. Learning more will give us a better understanding of how to personalize Hadley just for you. And don't worry, everything you share with us online will be kept safe and secure.

Of course, if you'd prefer to talk through these questions, we are just a phone call away at 800-323-4238. Taking these few steps saves your preferences so you can continue right where you left off and track your progress every time you log on. Plus it connects you to the Hadley community and helps sustain our funding to keep Hadley free of charge. And last but not least, it gives you direct access to the Hadley team. So now is your chance to sign up and join us.
