Clarupa: Magnifier & Reader

Clarupa turns your phone camera into a magnifier that is easy to hold, easy to read and easy to listen to. Zoom in on small print, add light, freeze the picture, and let the app show the text in large, clear letters and read it aloud. Many magnifier apps stop at zoom. Clarupa adds a reading mode for the moments when small print really gets in the way: a restaurant menu in dim light, the steps of a recipe, the back of a package or a letter from the bank. How it works 1. Point the camera at the text. Zoom with the large plus and minus buttons, with two fingers or with the volume keys. 2. Tap Freeze. The picture holds still, so you can lower your hand and look at it calmly. 3. Tap Read. The text appears in large letters and can be read aloud. Reading mode - Text is recognized on your phone, and the picture is not uploaded - Large letters, with the size, line spacing and colors you choose - Read aloud with your phone's voice, with the current line highlighted - Pause, go back a line or change the speed at any time - Menu layout: each dish on its own line with its price, tap a line to hear it - Recipe layout: one step at a time with a big Next button, and the screen stays on while you cook Magnifier - Zoom up to the limit of your camera, with tap to focus - Flashlight with one large button - Freeze frame, then zoom and move around the still picture - High-contrast views: black on white, white on black, yellow on black, blue on yellow - Brightness control for glossy or dark paper Shelf Keep frozen pictures and their text on a shelf inside the app. Give them a name, such as "Pharmacy receipt" or "Soup recipe", and open them again later without the camera. Share a picture or its text when you want to, or delete it. Made to be easy - Large buttons and labels, high-contrast design - Opens straight to the camera - A home screen shortcut and a Quick Settings tile start the magnifier in one tap - No account and no sign-up Supported text Reading mode recognizes languages written in the Latin alphabet, such as English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese, and also Japanese. Read aloud uses the text-to-speech voices installed on your phone; some languages may need a voice download in the phone settings. Please note Clarupa is a reading aid, not a medical device. It does not treat or change eyesight and does not replace glasses or advice from an eye care professional. Text recognition can make mistakes, especially with handwriting, curved or shiny surfaces and poor light, so always check important details, such as medicine doses, amounts and dates, against the original. Privacy and ads Pictures and recognized text stay on your phone. Camera access is used only to show the magnified view. The app is supported by ads, which appear on the Shelf screen and sometimes when the app starts; there are no ads over the camera or the reading screen. The ad provider may collect data as described in the privacy policy and the Data safety section of this listing.
