Welcome to the amazing app that lets visually impaired ‘see’ for the first time.

The Be My Eyes app was developed by Hans Jørgen Wiberg from Denmark and it uses an iPhone feature called VoiceOver – this enables blind people to use their phones using synthetic speech. A blind user can seek assistance from pretty much anyone and a volunteer can see whatever is in front of the blind person using the phone’s built-in camera.
