About this app

Use your camera to magnify small text, see object details or zoom in on faraway text like street signs or restaurant menus behind a service counter. Search for words before or after you take a picture to find what you need on a menu, a departure board or anything containing text. Apply visual effects to make low-contrast text more visible. In low-light environments, brightness is adjusted automatically. You can also take photos and zoom in as much as you need to.
