Hi Tony,

Seems I was wrong, I can't find it on the Windows store.  Sorry about that.

All the best

Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks for that and just as I would have expected.

Do you knnow how I can access that store to download the seeing AI app?

Tia,

Tony

Hi Jackie all,

Thanks indeed to Saqib and MS and I wonder if anyone knows if the app 
can be downloaded to Windows 10 as it's MS-supported?

Yes indeed, I completely endorse that.  We can all go off on one 
when something doesn't work, but this is frankly sensational 
progress on the part of Saqib and Microsoft.

Kind regards,

Agree with all of this Jackie and would only add that it just goes 
to show what can be achieved when you set a blind person to design 
and develop something for blind people. I think Saqib is to be 
massively congratulated and Microsoft highly praised for supporting 
and encouraging
this work.

Forgive the cross-posting, but for anyone who hasn't yet downloaded 
this app from the App Store, it really is the best thing you could 
do today if you have the time and inclination.  Until now, it has 
never been possible to read handwriting, and while this aspect of 
Seeing AI is in its early stages, I find it absolutely brilliant to 
pick up the post and read handwritten material just to indicate who 
it is from if nothing else.  At a time where people are sending and 
receiving Christmas cards, I find it liberating to check the 
envelopes to ensure they are for us, then open and read the cards 
from our families and friends instead of putting them in a pile to 
wait for sighted assistance.  I haven't found one yet that Seeing 
AI won't read, and even though it isn't word perfect, it's good 
enough to know they are for us, and who they are from.  One card 
even had a note in it that I was
able to decipher, it's truly amazing that we have this.
If there ever comes a time when we will have to pay for this app, I 
most certainly would as it has so many uses.
