User reviews

Has potential

This is an ok app for two people. As the font grows smaller, the line of text grows longer, necessitating the helper keep track of how many letters are misread. This would be so much easier to use if a maximum of two or three letters were on each line, no matter how small the letters.

Nice app and easy to use

Nice app! Very easy to use. It has different eye charts. The instructions are clear and easy to follow but wish they would not repeat every time you want to check your acuity. Also wish there was an option to check your vision at arm’s length so that you can check it by holding out a cell phone. Keep up the good work and thank you!

Works great

Easy to use and makes eye check ups more accessible

Response from developer

Thanks for your feedback! Making eye checkups more accessible was the primary reason I developed the app - I'm glad it was able to help you. Thank you so much. - Soham Govande

Great app

Diagnosed my myopia

Response from developer

So glad the app was able to help you! Thank you so much.

Skip this one for now

Poor layout makes it easy to skip instructions. Requiring a second person to do the test makes it almost useless. Recommend a redesign of the instructions page and scaling to work at arms length rather than 3 meters.

Response from developer

Hi Andrew! Thanks for sharing your feedback. As the developer of the app, I wanted to let you know that your concerns have been heard when you mentioned that the instructions page is easy to overlook. In the latest update (v1.1.0), this has been improved to prevent unintentionally skipping the instructions. Regarding the scaling of letters, since the app is meant to measure far acuity (as opposed to other apps which measure near acuity), reading the letters from a far distance is just the way the test should work. I hope this helps! Please feel free reach out to sohamthedeveloper@gmail.com with any further comments, concerns, or suggestions you wish to share. If this helped you, would you mind editing your rating to reflect this? Thank you! - Soham Govande
