About this app

weZoom inst is a camera-based magnifying glass to zoom in on things around you. As a low vision aid it extends the functionality and accessibility of basic magnifying glass apps by adding color filter modes, themes, intuitive gesture control and one-hand operation.

The main goal of this app is to support people with visual impairments by providing an easy to use digital magnifier.

The main features are:
• Color filter modes for high contrast (black-white, black-yellow, blue-white, blue-yellow, black-green)
• Adjustable threshold for the color filter modes
• Smooth magnification up to 8x (extendable zoom levels)
• Exposure compensation
• Switch between manual focus and auto-focus
• Freeze of the live video preview (you can still change the magnification level in this state)
• Photo sharing (e.g. with massenger apps)
• Volume key actions can be enabled
• Toogle to hide all other ui elements (fullscreen mode) to use more of the screen for zooming - very useful in combination with the volume key actions

I was struggling to read an instruction manual with tiny print. I knew there had to be a better way then using my grandads old magnifying glass. I just installed this and it is a keeper. No ads, thank you!! Lots of customization but easy to use if you only want to magnify small print. I didn't need to change any of the original startup settings. Just install and its ready for most people to use. I will also be installing this on my wife's phone and recommending this app to friends.

This is the best magnification app that I know of. It allows people with low vision to read small print at a distance. Also it allows individuals to be able to read street signs, bus signs as well as addresses from a distance. I don't know of anything out there that has these features. I recommend this app to anyone who struggles with visual difficulties. Great job to the developers.

I've tried a handful of apps like this, & so far this is the best I've tried. No ads, no subscriptions, no misleading "free trials" - just plain free. And it has all the features I need. Simple! My only complaint is that it looks like it's in portrait mode, but it's actually in landscape mode. Pretty minor quibble. I don't use this every day, so it's not a big deal. Overall quite pleased with this app!
