FAQ

How to use the app?

On the home screen, click the camera icon in the first half of the page to click a pic. Click the mic icon in the second half of the page to start recording a question. Click the mic icon again to stop recording.

In the settings page, you can change the verbosity of the app and enable or disable the "describe pic" feature. You can also toggle if you want to use the camera or the gallery to select an image.

What happens when "Describe Pic" is enabled?

When "Describe Pic" is enabled, the app will describe the image as soon as you select it. You can further then ask follow up questions by clicking and holding the image.

How to change the speaker voice?

The speaker voice can be changed from the settings of your device. Here is how you can do it on Android.

What is Verbosity?

Verbosity is the amount of words the app speaks. You can change it using the slider. This applies only to the initial description of the image. Does not apply to follow up questions.

I get a message that the app is unable to reach the servers. What should I do?

Either the app servers are down, or you have been rate limited as you have used the app beyond its fair use limits. Please check back later. If you think you have been rate limited unfairly, please email me here.

Is this app free?

Yes, this app is free to use. However, it costs money to run the servers and to use the AI services of cloud providers. I am yet to figure out a way to procure some cloud sponsorship for this app to allow it to be sustainable. I don't intend to monetize the app in any way.

If you would like to sponsor the app, please email me here.

Who is Newton?

Newton is the name of my Betta fish. He is a great listener and a great friend.
