Low Vision Reader: OCR & Zoom

No release notes.

Read printed text more comfortably with Low Vision Reader, an accessible reading aid designed for people with low vision or partial sight. Photograph a book, newspaper, letter, menu, label, or other printed page. Low Vision Reader uses optical character recognition (OCR) to turn the photo into clear digital text. Enlarge the text without the blur of a magnified photo, switch between dark and light colours, or listen as the text is read aloud. READ PRINTED PAGES - Take a photo by tapping anywhere on the capture screen, pressing the capture button, or using a volume key. - OCR converts the page into selectable, high-contrast digital text. - Pinch to adjust the text size from 16sp to 160sp. - Automatic orientation correction and image processing help improve recognition. - OCR works on the device after installation, without requiring an internet connection. - Designed for English, Hindi, Bengali, and mixed-script pages. CHECK THE ORIGINAL PRINT OCR can occasionally misread a word. Tap a recognized word to view a magnified crop of the same area in the original photo, making it easy to compare the result with the printed page. USE THE LIVE MAGNIFIER Turn your phone into a digital magnifier for labels, signs, packaging, and other quick reading tasks. Zoom with large plus and minus controls or a pinch gesture, and use the torch when you need more light. LISTEN TO TEXT - Hear recognized text read aloud in English, Hindi, or Bengali. - Tap a word to choose where reading begins. - Follow the highlighted word as it is spoken on supported Android versions. - Hear spoken feedback for important actions. Read-aloud requires compatible text-to-speech voice data to be installed on your device. Once the required voice is installed, text-to-speech can work offline. SAVE PAGES FOR LATER Save recognized pages, browse them in your history, and continue from your previous reading position. Saved documents can retain the source photo and word locations so you can check the original print later. MADE FOR LOW-VISION ACCESS - Large controls and touch targets - High-contrast interface - Dark and light colour options - Large default text - Maximum screen brightness while the app is open - Spoken guidance and feedback - Blur detection that prompts you to retake unclear photos Low Vision Reader helps you read printed material independently, using enlarged text, a live camera magnifier, or speech—whichever works best for you. Tips for better OCR: keep the page flat, fill the camera frame with the text, hold the phone steady, and avoid glare or strong shadows.
