PicExplainer: AI for Blind
Describe Photos & Diagrams
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Every diagram in every textbook, explained aloud.
PicExplainer is built for blind and low-vision students. Photograph any textbook diagram, chart, graph, map or figure, and hear a clear spoken explanation in seconds. Then ask anything, in plain language:
- "Which chamber does blood enter first?"
- "What does the arrow on the left point to?"
- "Read me the values on this chart."
BUILT VOICEOVER-FIRST
Designed with VoiceOver from the first line of code. Eyes-free camera guidance speaks you through framing the page. Every screen is fully usable by touch and speech. With VoiceOver on, results read in your own VoiceOver voice.
EXPLORE DIAGRAMS BY TOUCH
Drag a finger across the diagram and hear each part announced - "Right atrium", "X axis", "Resistor" - with a gentle haptic tick at every boundary. Charts can play as audio graphs, so you hear the shape of the data.
HONEST BY DESIGN
PicExplainer tells you how confident it is, and says "I cannot clearly read this label" instead of guessing. Anything uncertain is flagged so you can check with your teacher.
YOUR DIAGRAM LIBRARY
Every diagram and conversation is saved on your device. Study for the exam by revisiting figures you have already explored - they stay readable forever, even offline, even without a subscription.
NATURAL VOICE
A warm, realistic voice reads your results aloud (with an offline voice fallback).

Ratings & Reviews
- This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
This update makes PicExplainer speak up. If you use VoiceOver, or turn automatic speech off, the app now reads every important moment aloud — subscription, redeem and restore results, load errors, and the “Read aloud” and “Test voice” buttons — so nothing important is ever silent. Thank you for using PicExplainer.
