Apps called Georgie for devices running the Android operating system that help people with visual impairments or blind vision can do tasks that were previously extremely difficult for them.
This is a product of the UK based Screenreader. Users control the features by moving their finger to different points on the screen. The name of each point is read when the finger of the user passes, and will beep if the finger touches the right spot.

This application helps users make calls or text messages, as well as location-based tasks, such as when to the next bus stop, which direction the user is in, or to set a bell Reminders when users arrive at the destination.
The World Health Organization says there are around 39 million visually impaired people in the world, and 285 million suffer from vision problems.
"Every night I go to work, I often find it difficult to know when to get off the bus," said Wilson Hinds, a blind man in the UK. The bus is coming when he moves by this public transport.
It also has the ability to read aloud texts, such as those on certain merchandise labels, thanks to optical character recognition technology.
The price of the Georgie application is now $ 230 (about 4.8 million). This price includes support services.
Currently the app is offered worldwide with the English version. All proceeds were donated to a charity called Communication for the Blind and Disabled, which Screenreader is a subsidiary.
