Terrible experience while I was unable to walk properly after having medication in my eyes. Lookout was constantly reading irrelevant texts in explore mode and making them up. Most of the time, object were detected on the sides rather than detecting obstacles while walking straight ahead. Chaotic behavior, no voice control, constant reading of random texts. Lookout was unhelpful. The service hasn't been designed properly and practically.

Finally - a free app for the blind that helps us live more independently. While I appreciate the different modes the currency option should inform you which side of the bill is showing and whether it's right side up or upside down. Keep in mind a lot of users have no vision so we need to know these things.

This app is definitely worth five stars. However, when it leaves out half a paragraph to half a page , I think there's a problem. Needs work, but is better the most apps out there. I can hardly wait for an update. Additional edit. This app is heading towards to Stars very quickly! It moves text around! please fix it!!
