AccessLens

Features
Read full description

Access Lens helps you view everyday scenes and photos through simplified visual awareness filters. Use the live camera preview or choose a photo, then try blur, low contrast, cataract-style, tunnel vision, and central blind spot effects to notice how text, signs, layouts, and visual details can become harder to read. The app is designed for awareness, education, and accessibility checks. It is not a medical diagnosis app, does not provide medical advice, and does not accurately reproduce any visual condition. The filters are simplified simulations for learning and discussion. Features: - Live camera preview - Photo import from the system photo picker - Blur, cataract-style, tunnel, central spot, and low contrast filters - Adjustable filter intensity - Normal / Filtered comparison - Save filtered images to Photos only when you choose - Share filtered images with the system share sheet - Local processing on device Access Lens does not collect personal data, does not use analytics or advertising SDKs, and does not upload images to external servers.
