Seeing Ai Update - New Features - The Blind Life

[@mirandalacy9034]

My favorite thing about the app is that I can scan food items and it will give me cooking instructions! Love love love it!

[@marz11890]

I work with people who are blind and visually impaired. I love seeing the new updates for the app and while showing them to my clients today they all loved it as well! As far as the light sensor, a great way to use it would be for those folks who have no light perception to know if a light is on or off when company is over. Frequently when I am with clients I find my self asking them to please turn on the light or where I can find the switch. Since they don't tend to use the light they don't always know if it's on or off.

[@theblindlife]

That’s a great point!

[@krishnamajumdar9017]

Excellent, useful & informative videos, experiencing these today for the first time. Thanks for devoting your energy to create information for the blind & VI

[@theblindlife]

It’s my pleasure. These are the things are use and enjoy so I want to share them

[@darquequeen2323]

The light identifier would be very useful to my friends. They’re completely blind, but their sweet baby boy is fully sighted. When I visit, they ask me if the lights are on, as their son isn’t quite old enough yet to tell his mom and dad. As they both own iPhones, I told them about the app.

[@theblindlife]

Darque Queen that's a great example of how it could be useful! I knew you guys would have better ideas than me, LOL!

[@Brineytoes]

It will be helpful for photography.

[@patrickolson7390]

Thanks for sharing! The light sensor would be useful for people without eyesight to find out if the light is on.

[@asecretcourtofcrowsandcloc4084]

It would be useful if you were learning layout of the room and you want to find where their our windows or other forms of lighting that you could maybe use as a landmark.

[@NPrescott]

Man, thank you for this video!! I just found your channel and your videos are very well laid out and I appreciate all the info. Subscribed!!

[@theblindlife]

That’s awesome Nathan, thank you so much and welcome to the party!

[@aliciafranco5704]

DUDE! I WAS wondering about that shirt before you mentioned it lol!

[@Brineytoes]

Hi, Sam! I am a senior with AMD who has lost a tremendous amount of vision (One eye permanently blinded, legally blind in the other, and glaucoma may take it all) and will soon lose it all. I love what you have taught me, but I have to tell you that because I am also hearing impaired the music in the background is driving me crazy. I stopped watching TV totally because of musical accompaniment behind dialogue. I have very expensive hearing aids but they don’t separate music from dialogue well. It is extremely distracting and nerve-wracking. Please rethink adding the music track? Thank you for understanding.

[@nimsocproductions]

Do they have that app for Android?

[@adamguymon7096]

The sad thing about seeing ai is that the "barcode" feature doesn't even work? I tried on my Android phone and it didn't even read one and I tried a nice good amount of them? I tried to turn the flashlight on and hold the barcode in bright light and it is worthless? The other features that you just demonstrated are cool.

[@melaniekirschner2185]

Can this app be used on ipad 10th generation 10.9" or do we need the12.9" ipad pro?

[@nijiacui9753]

Just watched a bunch of your review videos! Thanks for doing the demo! What features do you think need improvement?

[@tinalemon1517]

On my iPhone can’t swipe from side , how do I do that

[@blindinamerica3335]

Thanks for the information!! It's a great app!

[@teresaebert5785]

Where is the settings to adjust the speech rate? She is talking soooooo slow cannot understand what she is saying. It was working great, not sure what happened. But when you can't see sometimes things get touched without knowing how. Awesome App. Changed my Moms life. Thanks

[@hopefitzwater1613]

That's the coolest app I've ever seen!

[@georgestokes5116]

i love that ipad you have .

[@ajluckow5655]

In short text I tried close caption on tv worked really good. For foreign with caption in English worked really fast.

[@vipcouponer1463]

Would it be possible to get a video comparison between the Orcam and seeing AI? I have been asked by several people if I would make video, but you are much better at this than me :-)

[@theblindlife]

That sounds like a great idea for a video, I’ll added to the list! Thanks

[@inekogary8870]

I love seeing AI. I got it a couple of years ago. And I use just about every feature on there. The lighting one is cool because then let me know if I have light on or off in the house. Even though I do not use any light because I do not have no vision anymore. But that is cool pants down number one I got it on my phone when it first came out and had it even when they updated it. I am so I am so glad you have it on your iPad. You can also download it to your iPhone also. If you want. Question are you going to demonstrate tap tap C? And demonstrate be my eye? For those who do not know about them. Because I also have both of them download it for free on my iPhone. And I use them both also I downloaded them as soon as they came out awesome.

[@Vlado_Gudelj]

Hello Sam We already can download this App in Spain. I´ve been trying it today and it´s really impressive, probably the beginning of something bigger that will arrive in the future! My question is if Do you know if Microsoft is going to release the app for other languages? It would be really useful for millions of people if the AI could understand and speak some languages like spanish, french or chinese. The app speaks very clear english but a terrific spanish lol

[@theblindlife]

Unfortunately I don’t know if they’re bringing out more languages in the future. The fact that they just released in a bunch of new countries makes me hopeful that they will

[@Vlado_Gudelj]

I hope so! That would be great because my grandma can´t speak english :( And by the way thank you very much for your channel. You are doing an awesome job!. I think many people with low vision feel lost like in a state of "limbo". The ophthalmologist tells you that his job is finished and nothing else can be done but at the same time it seems they are not "blind enough" to go to the ONCE, the spanish foundation that provides social services for the blind.

[@misshighfidelity]

@@Vlado_Gudelj I have written an email to Microsoft asking also for Spanish. I would encourage all Spanish speakers to write them! Saludos desde España. Thanks for to Blind life for this awesome channel!

[@vipcouponer1463]

On another note, do you know of any wireless Bluetooth cameras for the iPhone?

[@theblindlife]

Unfortunately, since I’m not an iPhone user I don’t know as much about it as I do android. Sorry about that.

[@barbarakuyl5494]

Thank you 🙏

[@internalnarrator851]

Hey Sam, is there some kind of an android version of that app? I looked it up on Play Store and it seens it's not on android. Any counterpart app on android OS with similar functionalities and features?

[@theblindlife]

Yes, it’s called InVision AI. It’s basically the same except it’s not a free app, unfortunately. I have a video on it as well.

[@sunnybee3882]

Hi Sam. Hope all well? Thanks for the information but I still can’t download this app in Japan. Maybe soon. Once again thanks a lot God bless you and your family and a merry Christmas to you all sunny,

[@theblindlife]

Sun Bee oh man, that's a bummer! Very sorry to hear that. Hopefully it gets released there soon.

[@sherrymullins1785]

I need help resetting short text back to English

[@roberthansen2008]

When will Android get Seeing AI?

[@nancisumner7511]

Will Seeing AI be available for Android?

[@darquequeen2323]

Thanks! 👍🏽

[@alexandrabobeica2083]

Hi! Is this app available in Romania?

[@theblindlife]

I’m not in Romania so I’m not sure. You could just search on an iPhone or iPad for the app.

[@paulbeaulieu6215]

That is awesome Ios from Apple software

[@jacquelinesmith-jackson2815]

It's a cool thing to have technology where the programs can talk to someone who is blind or Visually Impaired. 💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛 💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛

[@rushankparvate7353]

Hey Sam! Doesn't it work in Android's yet?

[@theblindlife]

Rushank Parvate nope, still not available for Android yet. I talked about it in the video but had to cut it out because of time but I think they're only releasing it to IOS as a test. They want to see how well it works before they bring it to their hololens device. That's just a rumor going around but that means they'll never release it on Android. Bummer.

[@lisacastle7406]

They should contact Sherwin Willliams about color recognition

[@nc-musicarts5264]

Cant find the app in appstore.

[@theblindlife]

Number one I would recommend of course to make sure your spelling it correctly. Most likely the problem is that if you were searching on an iPad, it’s not technically supported. Up at the top left you can switch from iPad only search to iPhone. Then you’ll find it. That’s what I had to do for my iPad although it works perfectly fine.

[@karencarter2759]

The light feature lets a totally blind person know if the lights are on or off.
