Thanks for all the replies. I'll remember to capitalise the name of the app
correctly when I next go into the app store and see if that makes any
difference.
Caroline.

Hi Caroline,
It may not be available for the Mini I'm not sure. But try CamFind in the
search field, that's a capital C and a capital F, don't just initially cap
it as you did here. It doesn't come up on the Android Play Store if I do
that, so it may impact your search on the app store as well.
All the best
Steve

I've recently got an iPad Mini and decided to try out Camfind, but when I
searched for it in the app store, it told me that no results could be found.
Is this because the app isn't available on the Mini? I also tried to find
the Looktel Voiceover Tutorial, but here again no results were found in the
app store. If the reason is that the apps aren't available for the Mini,
it's surprising there's no message to let you know this, rather than just
telling you that no results can be found.
Caroline.

Following Alistair's helpful post to the list yesterday, I downloaded this
app to see what I could get out of it, and was very pleasantly surprised.
The most useful aspect for me was being able to take a picture of something,
and have it report back within seconds. I tried a lot of different things,
ranging from assistive technology such as my BrailleSense, to fresh orange
juice, green tea teabags, baked beans, a box of Cornflakes, and music CDs.
I was also interested to see how well it identified clothing, and found it
pretty good at colours and even fabrics believe it or not.
My favourite try though was when I took a picture of my dog. It told me she
was a large black and brown short-haired dog. Further investigation on the
information of that suggested she was a German Shepherd, which she is.
I haven't investigated the app much more than this yet, however, but will
say it is definitely useful given it is free. You can delete your history,
and taking pictures is very straightforward.
Give it a go!
Kind regards,
Jackie Brown
