Eye Reader App for iPhone-4 | Solution to reading small print in dark areas

Eye Reader is a reading magnifier that utilizes the LED light of the iPhone 4, providing a solution to reading small print in dark areas like reading menus in restaurants.

Unlike an ordinary magnifier,the Eye Reader efficiently uses the iPhone 4 bright LED light to illuminate any surface up to 5X magnification. It's also the first of several iPhone and iPad apps the company says it's developing for people over the age of 45.

Eye Reader is the first, in a series of  new “Silver Apps” – applications geared towards users 45 and older. Utilizing the iPhone 4′s full 3.5-inch widescreen display and 4 bright LED lights, EyeReader illuminates any surface and offers up to 5X magnification, it also gives users the ability to zoom in and out with two fingers via touch-screen technology. It’s perfect for reading menus, playbills, instructions on prescription medication or any fine print.

Lavender may have a (somewhat unsettling) point about separation anxiety and our digital communicators, but we'll have to see if his other one--that Baby Boomers will pick up phones in lieu of glasses or a magnifying lens--holds true in the app marketplace (though the press release claims users in 21 countries have already purchased it).
The app can be downloaded from the iTunes store for $1.99.


The Eye Reader application is NOT ONLY great for reading menus, but for prescription labels, restaurant checks, credit card vouchers, and is a handy tool for seniors.
Keep your eye out for more from the "Silver Apps" series.
Note: Eye Reader requires iPhone 4.
