## What is Shame Reader?

Shame Reader is an assistive reading app for printed text. If newspapers, magazines, books, or recipes are hard to see, photograph a page and listen in a clear, natural voice.

HOW IT WORKS
• Photograph a page with your camera, or import a photo from your library
• Text is recognized automatically—even in many foreign languages
• Choose Read as written to hear the page in its original language
• Choose Translate to English for foreign text read aloud in English
• Large buttons, high contrast, and simple controls for low vision

BUILT FOR REAL READING
• Column-aware layout for newspapers and magazines
• Skip headlines, subtitles, or dates if you only want the article
• Male and female voices, slower or faster playback
• Track reading sessions by book or magazine (ISBN barcode scan)
• Export audio (Pro) to listen later or share with family

WHO IT IS FOR
• People with low vision or difficulty reading small print
• Anyone who prefers listening to holding a page at arm’s length
• Readers of foreign-language newspapers, magazines, or books who want translation or native pronunciation

TRY BEFORE YOU BUY
Read 10 pages free. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited pages, export audio, and full reading options. Optional page packs if you only need a few more pages.
