Ratings and reviews

This app has been life changing. When I need a dollar bill read, I scan it and within seconds the amount is spoken to me. It's so nice not having to rely on others to read my money. Thanks so much for creating such a helpful tool.

The developers of this app apparently never asked a totally blind person to use it. It is very difficult to scan a bill if you cannot see the screen of the phone.

Very useful. I can use this with a customer who is vision impaired or use it as a teaching tool for kids learning their notes.

What's new

Identifies the new U.S. $100 currency note.
