Description

See It is a handheld video magnifier that works by streaming a real time video feed to your iPhone or iPad's screen from your device's back-facing camera. You can zoom the feed in and out, and apply image filters to make things easier to see. Also, for devices that support it, you can turn on your device's flash light for extra illumination and a sharper image.

Designed by the visually impaired for the visually impaired, See It is the world's only portable CCTV video magnifier for your iPhone and iPad! Why pay hundreds or thousands of dollars for a handheld portable CCTV, when there's an app for that?

See It supports the following image filtering modes:
- Normal

- Black and White (Grayscale)
- Inverted Black and White (Grayscale)

Great

I have a dedicated video magnifier, it's bulky and heavy, also the screen is grainy. It was nearly a thousand pounds so I'm really shocked by how well this app works. I know we are becoming used to free apps but sometimes you need to buy quality and this is worth so much more than it costs. The ability to have a video magnifier in my pocket will, for me, be a life changing thing allowing independence from sighted people. Thank you to the developer.

DO NOT BUY - it is full of bugs

I am so disappointed by this app considering iI just paid £4 !!!

I volunteer for a blind association in the UK and am visually impaired myself.

I purchase 'accessible' apps for iPad and iPhone to try out first and then recommend to my customers.

Unfortunately I cannot recommend this app to anyone in its current state - especially at £4, this is VERY expensive for an App that just doesn't work. Yes the dedicated electronic magnifiers are expensive - but at least they work.

It is so full of bugs its breathtaking. Where do I start?

By the way I have tested this on my iPhone 5:

The screen shots show Horizontal
Imaging - but....

In portrait mode you get an accurate portrait image - great

But

most of us use landscape mode. On most occasions when you rotate the screen to landscape a third of the screen turns black and the picture is limited and still at 90 degrees to the horizontal view.

When the screen does flip to landscape view you can see it flip BUT you still end up with a portrait view (ie 90 degrees to what the view should be) - very weird

The flash just blanks everything out - even at 12 inches away.

It is really difficult to focus the image to be able to read text

The colour contrast options have poor definition.

This is sooooo bas I wish I could upload screen shots.

waste of money

This app will not even launch. Having paid over £14 I feel I have been ripped off. What a con!
