In this Blind Vet Tech Quick Guides, News and Reviews podcast, we demonstrate and review Cash Reader. Cash Reader is a basic yet powerful app to recognize currencies from around the world. The app provides a 14 day free trial upon first opening the app. After the trial ends, you will either be limited to only recognizing the lowest 2 bills for the set currency or purchase the full version for $13.99.
Cash Reader contains the standard features other money recognition apps provides, It utilizes your TTS settings and continuously announces the bill being scanned until it is removed or replaced. When no bill is detected, an option in settings will enable or disable a continuous beeping sound. Unique to Cash Reader is a vibration pattern. This unique feature enables one to determine the currency being identified by just feeling the iPhone.
Overall Cash Reader is a great addition to the category of recognition apps for the blind. Cash Reader balances nicely between a no frills interface while possessing some wonderful features. If the freemium aspect of the app concerns you, try it out for at least the free 14 day trial and drop us a line with your thoughts. You can find Cash Reader on the App Store by clicking here.
