## What is KNGWorld?

There are 2 parallel universes in the world: that of the blind and visually impaired, and that of the sighted. In the universe of the blind, solutions, products and software specifically for the blind are proposed, which maximize productivity and accessibility, but at a very high cost in terms of money, production and distribution costs and learning difficulties. In the world of the sighted, on the other hand, there is technology that is commonly found on the market, much cheaper and sometimes less accessible, but which with some tricks and programs can be even better than the ad hoc solutions proposed by the main dedicated bodies.
What if these 2 worlds merged? Here KNGWorld was born, the world of services offered by the KNGTech community, a community of blind people passionate about technology who try to find out how to go beyond borders and tell you about common technology, under different eyes.
It all comes from me, Karim, the only developer of this application. I've always liked to stand out, using on my Mac software totally, or almost totally, unknown to other blind users. And since I've begun to discover what lies beyond the world that the blind have always known, I've discovered doors that wouldn't have been possible before.
So I decided to open this website, with this application, where I offer services, articles and tutorials to talk about technology with different eyes.
These services are all wrapped up in the KNGWorld App, KNGTech YouTube Channel, and KNGWorld Website and encompass:
1. An articles section that includes all the latest articles such as written reviews of products, rumors, previews and more general news on the world of technology. They can eventually be added to your favorites if you like them, or shared on external platforms.
2. A contact section from which you can contact me directly by sending an email with your request. All you have to do is fill in the form proposed on the site or on the app.
3. Video reviews, tutorials and experiential published on our official YouTube channel, KNGTech, which you can easily see from the app, thanks to notifications or embeds in articles.
4. Exclusive to the app, Amelia, a very powerful AI-based chatbot. Amelia is friendly, confidential and allows you to receive assistance, information, search or simply have an informal conversation.
KNGTech also offers exclusive courses on programming languages, innovative technologies and much more.
Thanks to notifications you can stay up to date on new content, exclusive courses and initiatives. Notifications are sent both via push and via in-app alerts, which will keep you informed of what's happening in the tech world.
Accessibility for the blind is top notch, and it's our top priority. Therefore, please send us regular feedback on how to improve it.

### 5/5 — The app is very accessible but the articles are in Spanish

*2023-07-20*

I’m hoping that this gets fixed within another update very soon. I’ve tried to look at the articles but the articles are unfortunately in Spanish and there are no language settings within the app so that you can set your language preferences to your preferred speaking language. Other than that, this app is very accessible with voiceover. Please keep up the good work.

**Developer response:** Thank you for reporting the problem in the review. I'm actually working to translate the articles from Italian to English in Real time, even though the process is not simple, since I have to translate all the content of the website in order to do this. I'll try to optimize it from version 2.3 of the app.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 5.0 — 2025-02-24

KNGWorld 5.0 includes Gemini as the model for our integrated assistant: KNGAssist (Mini), bringing it closer to the power and stability of the much more powerful KNGAssist, released for iPhone, iPad, and Mac at the end of last year. It also includes improvements to the article reading experience and the contact view.

1. **Discover KNGAssist (Mini) with Gemini**: The issue that prevented KNGAssist (Mini) from working in version 4.0 has been resolved, and it now functions properly. It provides more natural and human-like responses, the speed is almost doubled compared to the previous architecture, and new UI elements make the experience more accessible.  

2. **Descriptive response mode in chat**: Useful for significantly improving image detail descriptions. When Descriptive Responses are enabled, the assistant will focus more on details; when the mode is disabled, it will get straight to the point.  

3. **Ability to upload images in KNGAssist (Mini)**: KNGAssist (Mini) is now multimodal, allowing you to upload images and have them described. This is ideal for showing a tech product issue, getting recommendations on whether to buy something you're showing to the camera, and more.  

4. **Accessibility options in chat**: You can now adjust text size, contrast, and motion settings in KNGAssist (Mini). If it works well and you like it, I will bring it to the main app, KNGAssist.  

5. **Links in conversations are now interactive**: You can now access them using the Link rotor in VoiceOver or click on them directly in the message when they appear.  

### New comments feature:  
1. **Ability to comment on an article from the app**: Press the button at the bottom of the reading view, click on "Add Comment," enter the required details, and publish your comment directly from the app. You can also see comments posted by other users.  

### New options for articles:  
1. **Pull down with one finger, or three fingers if using VoiceOver, to refresh the article list**.  
2. **Reading indicators**: If enabled through the dedicated button, they help you determine whether what you want to read is a new article or one you have already read.  

KNGWorld 5.0 also includes minor fixes to the contact view and user interface and improves the stability of existing features from previous versions of KNGWorld.

### 4.0 — 2024-10-21

The update to version 4.0 is one of the largest updates ever made to this app; we are introducing revolutionary new features that will allow you to discover our content in a whole new way.

Article Reading:

We have reintroduced the old version of the article reader, but revamped. It now supports dark mode, making reading easier. Instead of displaying the entire site, as was the case with the first version of the KNGWorld app, it now only shows the article content.
We’ve completely redesigned the reading options interface, integrating them all into an options menu at the top right. From the same menu, you can now start or pause reading, adjust the voice speed, and open a brand new language selection menu.
Now, the voice and language selector opens in a full-screen modal, with languages ordered alphabetically. By opening a language, you will see the available voices for that language.
KNGAssist: Version 4.0 of the KNGWorld app introduces the first iteration of KNGAssist, our new customizable virtual assistant. KNGAssist will replace the old Amelia, which was available in earlier versions of KNGWorld, and is deeply integrated into our services. What’s new?

Assistant Customization: You can now customize the assistant’s name, personality, and the information it knows about you. This way, you can make it even more personal.
Create Multiple Characters: Need different assistants? Now you can, by creating multiple assistants, each with its own name, personality, and specific information it knows about you.
Get Faster, More Personalized Responses: KNGAssist is based on a new, much faster model that can provide personalized responses. It’s flexible and easily adapts to you and the personality you’ve given it, while still having access to all the data about us and our services.
Keep the Context: Maintain the conversation context between chats; each assistant will have its own message history, which it can pick up when you start chatting again. You decide when to delete the messages.
Get Summaries: Don’t have time to read an article? In the reading view, press the new "Summarize" button, and KNGAssist will generate a summary in seconds. You can also copy the summary to the clipboard and use it as you wish.
Discuss the Article: Press the "Discuss with KNGAssist" button to immediately start a themed chat, share opinions, ask for advice, or request additional information from KNGAssist. A great way to explore the topic together!
Improvements: We’ve also applied performance improvements, UI enhancements, and translation updates. Now, haptic feedback on iPhone will announce the reception of a message from KNGAssist, the start, and end of generating a summary, enhancing accessibility. We’ve also improved the translation system; now, thanks to translation work done on the website, articles will be shown in Italian only when the app is set to Italian; otherwise, they will be displayed in English. We will add more languages in the future.

We at KNGTech are always working to bring you the best possible technology to stay updated on the world of accessible and inclusive technology for everyone. We are continuously working to add features to our services and to give you the best experience ever. Stay tuned for future updates!

### 3.2 — 2024-06-06

In this version I applied minor technical fixes to Amelia, that's more natural and fast to respond. I've also enabled again the support for native macOS with an optimization.

### 3.1 — 2024-04-07

Version 3.1 of the KNGWorld app solves some very important problems and improves the user experience in the world of services offered by KNGTech; moreover, it lays the foundations for a new future, full of projects and services in KNGWorld.
In detail:
1. The app icon has changed and now reflects the new KNGTech logo.
2. Amelia, our virtual assistant, has been reactivated because we resolved a serious problem that prevented it from working properly.
3. The other view and the contact us view have been combined into a single view, More, and we have arranged the elements of the contact view differently so that they are better read by VoiceOver.
4. Fixed an issue where items added to the favorites list were not saved the next time the app was launched.

### 3.0 — 2024-01-09

Version 3.0 of the KNGWorld app revolutionizes the app's graphics once again and adds new features that will make you have an even better experience when you discover the latest news in the world of technology, receive assistance for your Tech devices or request advice on new products from acquire!
In particular:
1. Renewed graphics.
• Reintroduced the tab bar at the bottom of the screen, making views even easier to reach when moving around our app.
It now contains 5 panels, including the 4 views of the app such as Posts, Favorites, Chats and Contacts and the fifth option, a More menu, which contains all the options for privacy policy and reviews that were previously included in the main menu.
• Thanks to the new graphics, it will now be easier, on iPad and Mac, to select and read articles using the 2 columns and move from one to the other easily, without having too many menus to open to expand each function.
• In article reading view: removed the annoying "videoUrl" text when there is an embedded video in the article. We are still looking for a way to make the video player appear in the app.
• Translated into Italian all elements that remained labeled in English in the previous version.
2. Revolutionized chats with Amelia.
• By popular request, added the option to send voice messages to Amelia! Upon first startup, you will be asked for microphone and voice data permissions; a new button will appear next to the text field for typing a message, press it and start speaking, then release it to send. And thanks to the "Automatic pronunciation" function, conversations with Amelia will seem much more natural and realistic.
3. New models for Amelia.
• Amelia now uses a custom model from KNGTech based on gpt-4-turbo, trained to understand even more data about our products and services and better help you navigate the app and site. Thanks to gpt-4-turbo and its knowledge base until April 2023, you can get even more answers to your questions outside of KNGTech content!
• The model is significantly more reactive and takes much less time to generate responses, and at the same time, generates significantly higher quality responses.
• Now Amelia finally takes on a character, appearing decidedly more human and realistic when she communicates with you. She emulates emotions and feelings, and takes on an informal tone when necessary to be even more engaging in chats; you will notice a noticeable difference in the answers!
For now, this is what KNGTech has to offer you in this new version of the app; we are already working on even more innovative and interesting innovations, especially in the field of artificial intelligence! Stay tuned!
