Ratings and Reviews
Liked the app until I changed my email address
I liked the app until I changed my email address. Before I changed my email address I was having connectivity issues with my OrCam device and the app. The app would ask for a confirmation code and I would go to check my email to get the code and my OrCam device would keep disconnecting. I recently changed my email address and I tried to connect my OrCam again because it got disconnected somehow. When it asked for a confirmation code I couldn't get the code because it was sent to my old email address that I don't use anymore. I tried reinstalling the app to see if it would work but it didn't and the confirmation code was sent to my old email address again. Now I can't use the app anymore. Suggestions?
Several missing critical features
Firstly, the app fails to automatically connect to my OrCam even when the phone is right next to the OrCam for long periods of time, and there’s no “refresh” button in the app to make it try and search again.
Secondly, my Bluetooth headset drops connection to the OrCam constantly. I don’t yet know if this is an error with my headset or the OrCam... but if Bluetooth Settings was a actually a menu item in the app then I could reconnect quickly, instead of the 22-step process required to refresh the BT connection directly from the eyepiece.
Add Bluetooth Settings to the App, please!
Having the same issues
I am having the same issues as everybody above, as in not getting a confirmation number when I check my email, and now I am having the issue of registering my device again. It keeps on giving me an error message when I try registering again and decided to put in a new email. now I have a student that is going through a similar issue as well with the app. The app really needs to be updated if they want us to connect to the Wi-Fi through it.
