Suggestion for improving
I have heard great things about this app and decided to try it. I haven’t gotten a call yet but think a great change would be adding availability for those who are volunteering. (So we can add our work schedules in order to not interfere with drive times and such) some of us have different availability every week so I think adding an option for updating your schedule weekly vs having a set schedule or syncing with our calendar would be great!

I first downloaded BeMyEyes in 2018 and became a volunteer. I love getting calls. I tell all my friends about them. Then they sign up to volunteer, too. It’s such a fun ripple effect, and a great way to assist someone. App has significantly improved (especially the critical “torch” feature) over the years. Thank you for building and maintaining this amazing app for visually impaired friends ❤️

Receiving a call and being able to help someone with that call is the most amazing feeling ever. I think this app offers so many useful applications. The reward truly goes both ways.
DO NOT RELY ON THIS APP!
Do not rely on this app. I am low vision. This app continuously has an OCR bug when taking a photo of something to get the description it reads the first couple lines on repeat. Then it straight up refuses to read the rest of the description. I’ve had this problem numerous times and I’ve even reported it to the support people multiple times. After not acknowledging that this is a serious problem For people who rely on the service I have been ghosted with no resolution. It is incredibly irresponsible for this developer to market this app for people who are low vision and blind as an accessibility feature. This app provides inaccessibility as its core feature. If I could give it zero stars, I would.
