Does what it says it will do. Even recognized a rather old $10 bill (that has the four cars on back). Should be useful for my wife, who is blind. BUT!
Appears only able to say-out-loud the monetary denominations that it sees. Also, in addition to the say-out-loud annunciator, the amount is also printed in very large, yellow print on the screen. In public, this would be a rather serious privacy and security issue.
Possible mitigation: Use of headphones and hiding the screen.
Preferred mitigation: Silent feedback to the user, such as vibrations, and the ability to disable either or both audio and visual feedback.
Therefore, my first impression of the software is a 3 of 5 rating.
Also, answering another reviewer who said that the software does not recognize counterfeit bills, please note that the write-up for this app contains as a disclaimer that it does not recognize counterfeit bills as counterfeit. So, I cannot hold this against them.
Won’t work in dark room no light
Why would you not have the light turn on in a dark room to read currency? Blind people don’t have the lights on usually! You need the app to access the light on the smart phone in a dark room where there’s no light it is worthless does not work at all
Front camera ?
I am blind and i use this app from time to time and it has helped me out quite a bit, unfortunately the front camera on the phone will not work recognizing dollar bills. Is it possible to activate the front camera ???? It would be so much better cause of the way i carry my phone on shoulder strap .. if its not a feature can you please add it ?? Thanks Mak greets
