Original release notes
A brand-new home screen: three big buttons — Walking, Describe, Read Text — or just swipe in any direction to switch modes, with every mode announced aloud Walking alerts now work like a car parking sensor: steady ticks and haptic taps that speed up as you approach, with a continuous alarm only at close range Faster, steadier detection: distance readings no longer jump around, and alerts focus on a narrow beam where you're actually walking Describe mode speaks in plain, everyday words — and automatically describes again when you point somewhere new Read Text is now hands-free and multilingual: point at anything and it's read aloud in its own language A little welcome: on launch, the radar taps "hello" in braille Each mode explains itself the first time you use it New sound test in Settings to check beeps and vibration anytime Thank you for walking with us. If Blind Radar helps you, a review means the world.
