OneStep Reader 3.5

OneStep Reader provides convenient access to printed material anytime and anywhere. Reviewed as OneStep Reader 3.0, this app offers efficient and rapid text recognition capabilities. Its text-to-speech, text-to-Braille, and text highlighting features make it invaluable for individuals with visual impairments, dyslexia, and other reading differences.

The app allows users to import or capture photos of any text-containing item. By taking a photo, the app can either read the text aloud or display it on a connected refreshable Braille display. Reading has never been easier thanks to the simultaneous highlighting of both sentences and words being read in images or plain text documents. Moreover, the app assists in achieving high-quality photos through special alignment tools, including voice and vibration guidance. It also facilitates reading multiple pages, such as books, by snapping photos for later perusal.

Recognized as the recipient of three consecutive AppleVis Golden Apple Awards for Best Assistive Technology App in 2014, 2015, and 2016.
