Be My Eyes users say on Google Play
I've been on the app since 2021. I've been lucky enough to help a few people. The app is easy to use and it feels great lending a hand! If you don't have the ability to answer, or if you don't get to it in time, fret not! Someone on this MASSIVE platform is helping them! Step up and do your part! It's easy!
This is a great overall idea. However, the call system isn't exactly what I was expecting. I was hoping to be able to have an ability to mark myself as available / busy at different points of the day, as having a call during the middle of a work shift might get me in trouble. I'd be more than open to volunteering when I have free time at home. I'd simply like the option to let the app know if I am or am not available to volunteer.
Great App, but AI Needs Language Options Be My Eyes is a fantastic app that's truly a lifeline. However, a major issue is that the AI assistant only understands and speaks English by default. Even though we can set a language for volunteers, we can't do the same for the AI. This forces us to repeatedly ask it to switch to our preferred language, which is very inconvenient. Please add an option to set a default language for the AI.
Good but doesn't allow me to overlay another app. Sometimes you need to Google stuff to help the other party, but the app disconnects the call when you change apps. Also the "Problems" button after a call rarely works.
Very irritating app. I installed this app 4 months ago, and I have only received 2 requests. I answered the first request immediately, but the app booted me saying someone else answered it (?) My second request ever just came in today, at the worst possible time, and I was unable to assist which makes me feel crummy. This app has no way to designate hours of availability which is absolutely stupid. If you want to feel depressed and useless, then this is the app for you! I'm uninstalling though.
