## What is BlindWords?

BlindWords converts real time camera pictures that contain text into spoken words. It is not perfect but it can help read text for people who cannot see the text. Double tapping re-loads new text. There is a pause feature and help text to describe how to use it. It can read signs in the street and text in a book (using the set voice). It can also be used by those with blurred vision who can see pages but not the individual words. All suggestions on how to improve it are welcome. Thanks to Apple for creating the Vision framework which underlies the functionality.
