I use this app every day and for me it’s essential.
As a blind person, it gives me a huge sense of safety at crossings where there are no audible signals. It works really well detecting the actual state of pedestrian lights in real time, even in complex environments. Thank you for the work behind this.
I’d like to share a suggestion that I believe could be the next big step: integration with smart glasses like Ray-Ban Meta. Today, some accessibility apps already use the glasses’ camera through Meta’s SDK (for example, for scene description), enabling a fully hands-free experience.
In my case, with a guide dog and often carrying bags or a backpack, taking my phone out at a crossing is not always practical. With glasses, the camera is naturally aligned with the head, making orientation much more intuitive. Being able to launch the app by voice (for example, “Hey Meta”) and receive real-time feedback about the traffic light would be a major improvement in both usability and safety.
I understand this would likely involve integrating with Meta’s SDK/APIs for camera access, possibly combined with recent iOS capabilities for external video input.
If you’re interested in exploring this use case, I’d be more than happy to share my real-world experience to help validate it.

Türkçe dil desteği
Uygulamaya Türkçe dil desteği bekliyoruz. Bir de çevremde ne var özelliği de uygulama içerisinde bulamadım
無料になったと聞いたのですが
サブスクで年間5000円を支払っていたものですが無料になったと聞いたのですが。今日もまた5000円支払われてしまいました。なにか、特別な機能は使えるのでしょうか？
機能の要望
どっちを向いているのかとどっちの信号が赤か青かわかるともっと良いアプリになると思います。
追加で携帯のバッテリーが激しく消耗するので、その点も改善していただけるとありがたいです。有料になってからカメラの不具合が多すぎます。信号をカメラにかざすと安定して音が出ないことがあります。この点を改善してほしいです。障害物も何もないところでも結構ひどいのでよろしくお願いします。
赤信号から青信号に変わるときに不安定になります。直してもらえると嬉しいです。よろしくお願いします。

App muy buena
Es una suerte que vuelva a ser gratuita. Se vendió el proyecto? Se seguirá actualizando con más funciones? Muy buena en cualquier caso
Die App scheint jetzt nützlich zu sein.
Jetzt kann man die App ohne Abo nutzen, daher fünf Sterne. Ampelüberquerung funktioniert sehr gut. Allerdings Fußgänger Navi nutze ich momentan nicht.
Aplikacja super!!!
Bardzo potrzebna aplikacja! Tylko jej sie ucze: prosze o dodanye innych języków!

OKO review it is a great
OK hults to know when the lights have changed it is a great app
Vuelve a ser gratuita
Gracias por esto. Es la única aplicación que conozco que detecte el estado de los semáforos.
Have to pay
Having to pay for something like this is absurd. I have no other words couldn't even use it. There is no free option at all you have to pay to cross the street safely.
Disappointed in OKO’s new paywall.
I’m DeafBlind and rely on tools to help me navigate safely. Last time I used OKO, it was free and helped me know when it was safe to cross the street. Today, I was at a busy intersection with no accessible pedestrian signal (no APS), and I didn’t have my glasses, so I couldn’t see the walk sign across the street.
I opened OKO, expecting it to work like before—but now it requires a paid subscription just to use the basic crossing-detection feature. On a busy street, that’s incredibly frustrating and even dangerous. This is supposed to be an accessibility app. Putting a critical safety feature behind a paywall feels wrong. I had to fall back on using my camera zoom just to try and see the signal.
Accessibility should never come with a price tag—especially when safety is on the line.

Subscription
Last year or two when I used this app it used to not give me subscription in order to use this app for pedestrian signal crossing and now it's requiring me to have a subscription in order to use this app and I really don't want a subscription in order to use this app as it's too expensive for me I would rather use this app without subscription.

Now subscription model, even for trainers
If there could be at least a free version for trainers like BlindSquare does, then maybe I can recommend this app. Since I no longer have functionality since it's no longer free, I won't be showing my clients.
too much for so little...
i have just updated the app and i got the otrageous surprise that an expensive subscription is need
i wish it breaks bankrupt
i wish it breaks bankrupt
Suscripción
¿Primero gratuita y ahora piden suscripción? Nope, thanks. Entiendo que tengan que ganar dinero por su trabajo pero solo para saber si un semáforo está en verde o rojo, sale un poco caro. Además habría estado bien haber ofrecido la posibilidad de poder comprar la aplicación por un único pago.
Scam
They changed to subscription based pricing
I DON’T LEAVE HOME WITHOUT IT!
THIS APP WILL SAVE LIVES! I use moved to a large city for the first time in my life. With this app,, I can cross streets confidently even though blind. I can pair it with my hearing aids, but I want people to hear it so they don’t try to take me by the arm to “help” me! I still have to rely on hearing for places that don’t have crossing signals, but everywhere I go pretty much has them if there is a lot of traffic. I would be afraid to cross without this app! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

KI-Navigation
… gibt’s ab 5,99€/Monat. An sich finde ich das für eine wirklich gute Navigation nicht zu teuer; wenn aktuelle Baustellen, Blitzer, evt. sogar kurzfristige Sperrungen (Unfälle etc.) berücksichtigt & mir automatisch die Route optimiert wird. Mein BMW bietet diese Möglichkeit: Beim Kauf des Fahrzeuges war die Funktion für ein Jahr kostenlos & vertragsfrei; seitdem bezahle ich jedes Jahr 80 € - seit fast zehn Jahren, und wirklich gern: öfter erlebe ich Situationen, in denen ich (teilweise wesentlich!) schneller am Ziel bin als andere.
Bei Oko gibt es ohne vorherigen Vertragsabschluss für ein Abo - den Splash-Screen.
Da ich den nicht brauchen kann, und ich nicht bereit bin mich ERST vertraglich zu binden, um DANACH 7 Tage kostenfrei die App testen zu dürfen (finde den Fehler), musste auch ich mich von OO trennen, bevor wir uns überhaupt kennen gelernt haben.
