Great app!
I use this app more than any other assistive tech that I have. It makes life so much easier for me and has been integral in my Independence as a legally blind person. I don't have to ask for help reading labels or finding something that I dropped on the floor. I highly recommend this app!
Makes life easier
When lighting and contrast determine whether you can see something or not, this app makes life so much easier. I use it when shopping, sight seeing, navigating, and completing paperwork. I have tried several different vision accessibility apps and this one is the most useful.
thankyou
我很喜欢你的应用、这让我在绝望时看到了点希望，thank you
Very good but…
Very impressive and clear when zoomed in but the lack of camera shutter to take photos really let it down, this option would be a game changer.
An… ACCOUNT??
I just listened to Parallel #88, listened to the interview with Rebeccah, and came to download ReBokeh. And wasn’t able to even launch the free version because apparently here, free still means make an account.
I get that everyone and their sibling wants to collect your data these days and make money selling that to data brokers, and if that’s what this app is doing, well, that’s a shame. If it’s not, then requiring an account doesn’t make sense. If the account really is, as the account setup page says, to let us “get the most” from the app, then let us start sans account, and as we go, show us where the boundaries are - let us choose and *want* to make an account. Maybe I’m making an assumption that all processing is happening on-device; is it? If not, that should be discussed more up front, as it will impact usage/performance/privacy expectations.
I’m no longer willing to make yet another account (or allow another login via an existing login) for any new thing without understanding why.

Say what
A low vision app requiring me to spend a half hour getting the password and email to match using the tiny iPhone pad. Being visually impaired it was a lot of fun. Why do you need both?
Excellent and thoughtfully crafted application
great app!
Great for those with vision difficulties!
Use this app multiple times a week to help both indoors and outside.
Good magnifier
UADATE: the glitch that initially stopped the app from functioning on my phone has been resolved. The function and options within the app are great. This has replaced any need for an electric CCTV style handheld magnifier which can be expensive and bulky. I like that it can even be used to view other screens, something that often doesn’t work with a handheld electric magnifier and their bright led lights that make the other screen unreadable. The magnification even works for viewing objects at a distance, I was able to zoom in on the house across the street with excellent clarity. It would be great if there was a way to highlight and copy text or use the speak text function when images are paused. That is the only reason I will still need to photograph something for text information. Overall a good app and you can definitely tell the difference when something designed for visually impaired users was created by someone with a visual Impairment rather than just a tech person.
I can’t get the app to open on my phone, it works fine on my iPad but it freezes up on my phone as soon as I allow access to the camera. Then when I try to close and reopen the app it’s just a black screen and no function. I am on iOS 16 so it should not be a compatibility issue. I hope this bug gets fixed because I love the concepts and would like to use it on my mobile device and not just my tablet at home.

Hello! Thanks for alerting us to this problem - if you wouldn't mind sending an email to info@rebokeh.com we can try to troubleshoot this issue together.
Well done
As a veteran with sight loss I have always found it difficult to see menus clearly. This is great. Quick simple and easy to use
Won’t open
I was excited to find out if this app would help. Won’t open.

Thank you!
This is an amazing app!
Wow, loving it
Please keep improving the visual and do consider a little texture indicator for a few seconds while changing the contrast to colour.

This app is so helpful to me. I use it everyday to read food labels, makeup labels & all sorts of other small or blurred print! Thank you ReBokeh!
An important piece of technology
I used to have to take photos of menus and text on my laptop screen, edit them, make the image negative, and it was just a hassle. With the ReBokeh app, it is all built in. The video stabilization technology works perfectly and really helps me to see things closer. 10/10!!!
Wow!!
I’m in the process of losing my sight due to wet macular degeneration… my vision is blurry and distorted especially by the end of the day. This app has been a God send!!! I use it everyday!!!
