ExploraVist vs Personal Eyes

ExploraVist gives you real-time information about the world around you — without needing a Wi-Fi connection, a data plan, or a server that might go down. Point your camera and instantly get a verbal description of what's in front of you. Search your photo library by describing what you're looking for. Recognize the faces of people you know. Identify objects nearby. All of it works offline, because daily life doesn't wait for a good signal. What the ExploraVist app does today: → Scene description — point and hear what's around you, described in plain language → Face recognition — identify people you know by name → Object recognition — find out what's nearby → Photo search — describe a memory and find the photo → Voice notes — record voice memos that never leave your phone

Personal Eyes helps blind and low-vision users understand what’s in front of them using the iPhone camera and on-device AI. Open the app and the camera turns on. A live object box and spoken direction cues (Left, Right, Up, Down) help you center a subject. Tap the shutter or turn on auto-capture and Personal Eyes describes what the photo shows: people, objects, animals, or the scene. Useful readable text (signs, labels, prices) is mentioned only when it’s actually there.
