I love the fact that the developers are trying to help the visually impaired so don't give up. But I'm going to be honest after using this app It isn't helpful. Example I opened my freezer and was hoping that the AI would be able to tell me what was in the freezer, because if it could do that, it means it would be helpful to me at a grocery store when I'm having trouble seeing what is on the shelves. However the only description it gave was that it was a picture of a freezer Third * 4 text read.

Hi~ Michelle Ritterhoff :) Thanks for using Sullivan Plus. :) The recognition function is not yet complete. It is still improving for better service and will be supplemented gradually. We are constantly researching and developing so that customers can use better Sullivan plus. Please look forward to it. Thank you.

Did any blind or low vision person used this app on his own for more then 10 minutes? Any app that have lots of possible clicks is not for low vision people. Those apps should have possibility to lock all buttons except mode change. Why it is not possible to manually turn on the torch? Why it is not possible to set default mode on app start? Low vision people and elderly people, can barely select shortcuts from home display. While reading subtitles, app first reads bottom line and then top line.

In Sullivan Plus, you can selectively enable frequently used modes through the Mode Change menu. The default mode is set as the one placed at the top of the list. The flash works automatically but can be turned off in Other Settings. To support visually impaired users, the app is designed to automatically focus on the shutter button when launched.

I am a person with visual impairment from India and I find this application very excellent and highly useful for persons with visual impairment. The image description feature is really amazing. I request the software providers to not to make it paid as other applications did. Thank you so much for the wonderful product
