This app is good though it needs a little bit of improvement. Your image recognition is quite random that might confuse people with vision problem. As for the text reader, it's good in a word for word reading but when it comes to multiple words or even a long sentence it doesn't detect the letters very well as well as different fonts. While object detection isn't working. Overall, you guys did a good job and I hope this app helps lot of people. I'm gonna give you 4 stars for now.
