ReBokeh

I use this app more than any other assistive tech that I have. It makes life so much easier for me and has been integral in my Independence as a legally blind person. I don't have to ask for help reading labels or finding something that I dropped on the floor. I highly recommend this app!

When lighting and contrast determine whether you can see something or not, this app makes life so much easier. I use it when shopping, sight seeing, navigating, and completing paperwork. I have tried several different vision accessibility apps and this one is the most useful.

I just listened to Parallel #88, listened to the interview with Rebeccah, and came to download ReBokeh. And wasn’t able to even launch the free version because apparently here, free still means make an account. I get that everyone and their sibling wants to collect your data these days and make money selling that to data brokers, and if that’s what this app is doing, well, that’s a shame. If it’s not, then requiring an account doesn’t make sense. If the account really is, as the account setup page says, to let us “get the most” from the app, then let us start sans account, and as we go, show us where the boundaries are - let us choose and *want* to make an account. Maybe I’m making an assumption that all processing is happening on-device; is it? If not, that should be discussed more up front, as it will impact usage/performance/privacy expectations. I’m no longer willing to make yet another account (or allow another login via an existing login) for any new thing without understanding why.
