Ratings and Reviews
Editors’ Choice
This altruistic app connects thousands of people who are blind or have low vision with millions of sighted volunteers who can help with day-to-day tasks. Choose your preferred language(s) and start video calls with a tap.
Brilliant app (+ suggestion)
I've been a member for nearly a year and have received two calls. The first one I missed, the second one was to help someone explain what's on their computer screen when their laptop crashed. It's a great way to help a stranger and costs nothing but a couple of minutes of time to answer a call. If you're busy, you don't have to take the call and someone else will help.
My only suggestion would be to make calls more prominent. I've tried in my settings but it seems to be a restriction by the app. I work from home and always have time to answer a call but I know I'll miss them if they are only in the notification bar, rather than a full-screen phone call message.
This might even be intentional as to not annoy users, but it'd be great if users could manually choose how they want the calls to come through.
Easy and very rewarding
I have being a volunteer for nearly 3 years now, it’s very easy to register. I receive calls randomly once or twice a month. As a volunteer you have to be very quick to answer the call as many other volunteers receive the same call. The call turns into camera and most of the time it is to assist someone with use by date labels on groceries, helping to select what product is to eat first. Other time is about to help selecting colour of a dress or shirt. Calls are generally briefs, you can assist someone from anywhere around in the world. Great App, everyone should be a volunteer
