MYdys is a CES 2023 Innovation Award honoree and the first free dyslexia app of its kind to use OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and augmented reality technologies to make real-time adjustments to text captured on smartphones. This app promises to support millions of adults and kids who live with dyslexia and find themselves challenged with reading easily. For those who struggle to order from restaurant menus, make sense of bank statements and legal documents or homework, this app promises to simplify daily life.
By taking a picture of text in books or magazines or on websites and signs, people with dyslexia can now benefit from a portable companion that adjusts font sizes, as well as the spacing in between words and letters. This app also has the ability to highlight, color code and change backgrounds and font colors for optimal contrast.
