Seeing Assistant Magnifier is an application developed by Transition Technologies S.A. in order to support visually impaired people in everyday life.
Seeing Assistant Magnifier allows for the phone to be used as magnifying glass. This allows for people with sight problems to easily read small text or watch small items. Seeing Assistant Magnifier, beside magnifying image, also allows for changing contrast, brightness, and color space of displayed image. Application as default shows image gathered by the rear camera. To change camera chose „Change Camera” button placed in the top of the screen. This will cause application to use front camera to gather image. There are four buttons at the bottom of the screen, allowing for user to change settings of magnifying glass: Zoom, Brightness, Contrast, and Color. First three options (Zoom, Brightness, and Contrast) show slider allowing for changing image parameters, respectively magnification, brightness, and contrast. When VoiceOver is enabled you should use swipe up and swipe down gestures to change value of the slider. If VoiceOver is disabled just use ordinary way of changing value of slider, by dragging the ball right and left to achieve desired magnification, brightness, or contrast.
The „Color” button allows for changing color of displayed image. After choosing this button there are two new buttons shown: „Black and White” and „Inverse”. Just tap appropriate button to use one of those options. Tapping the button again will cause appropriate option to be disabled. To hide additional controls (slider or buttons) just choose the button again, and it will hide controls used to control active option. If you place device in landscape magnifying glass will change to full-screen mode; it will hide all controls on the screen. Shake the device to turn on the torch if there is not enough light to comfortably see displayed image.
