A magnifier that reads aloud
Small print on the medicine box. The bill with numbers you can't see. The newspaper in bad light. Take a picture – and have the text big, clear and read out in a calm voice.
Here's how to do it
-
1
Take a picture of the small print
Hold your phone over the text and tap once. You don't have to hold the camera still for a long time – one photo will do.
-
2
Enlarge text
The text appears in clean, readable font. Press A+ until it's large enough, then choose light or dark appearance.

Listen to it read aloud
Choose a female or male voice and have the text read at a leisurely pace. You can read and listen at the same time.
What you get
Medicine and dosage
Package inserts and labels in three-dot font – finally readable, and read aloud if you want.
Mail and bills
Amount, KID and due date clearly on the screen, without a magnifying glass and flashlight.
Remember the settings

Questions & Answers
Can I use Qsnap just as a magnifying glass, without translation?
Yes. If the text is in your own language, you just have it enlarged and read aloud – no translation takes place.
How big can the text get?
About twice the size of the regular font with the A+ button, or choose "Extra large" by default in the settings.
Is it easy enough for the elderly?
Qsnap has three steps: take a photo, read, listen. No account, no login, and the settings are remembered. Many people set it up for parents or grandparents.
