This is really great. I love seeing people helping other people in need. I still don't fully understand how this works but I find it very interesting. I personally don't know anybody who's completely blind but I do know a few people that are visually impaired. I'm definitely going to let them know about this.
Thanks @steemation for your support. All these apps are very interesting. Just keep them in your mind and let the needy ones know about it. God bless.
I feel very happy when I see technology helping to make people's life better. As an android lover I always try to encourage people to help others through their apps. For many years and even today technology is blamed of destruction of environment, making people lazy and as a cause of many diseases.That's not completely wrong. But every thing has pros and cons. And the bright side of it is more powerful. Only thing we need to do is trying.
Hey @androidmaster thanks for coming here. Yes we dont use technology in a right manner and if used properly these apps are the best results. And i do agree with you that we should keep trying in directing the technology in the right path. by the way loved you steemit id. Have a great day :)
