My favorite app!!!

EyeReader is just so convenient...I’ve been using it and it works very well!

Love the update! Works with Apple Watch now.

Newest version has added some useful options. Enhanced zoom is really great for photos! Really helpful with the bright light.... That now you can set to stay on longer. Good stuff!

This is great!

I am reposting my original review below because it continues to be true. I love this app! I am forever handing my phone off to people because they can’t read something. Just this morning I was using it to read the specs on some loose (cordless) usb adapters to figure what they worked with... Thank you, Eyereader!

This app is great! Great for the obvious things like menu reading in candlelit restaurants, but I am using it for so many things. Reading the instructions on bottles that are too small to read and too critical not to read. Finding stuff that has disappeared under my car seats. Identifying the things that have become cat toys and migrated to dark and distant corners under large peices of furniture. Reading and photographing the model / serial number tags on appliances / furnaces / water heaters / etc. And then there was letting me find a flashlight and fresh batteries during that unexpected power outage.
Great app! Really handy!

this app is probably the worst I've ever seen I have tried to adjust the magnification and it won't and when I look at anything is blurred as well as it will not switch from white background to black background and white letters from the white background and black lettering to invert and I do need that purpose for this app as well as the tutorial whatever that comes up will not read that to me so I don't think this is a good app I dig it should be pulled or redesigned

Mediocre

Just adds light to your camera. Ok in a pinch.
