Taking a Picture

To take a picture, long press on the screen. Think of it as a long “click,” just done with your finger. When the device takes a picture, you will hear a “shutter click” sound effect.

If you’re having trouble getting the device to snap a picture, first make sure you’re touching the pad itself when tapping. Second, lift your finger off the pad for a second or so and then lightly place it back on the pad. No need to mash it, a long tap will do :).

Some new users will get strange results for object recognition and reading assistant even after many tries in different environments. While there is image stabilization enabled, if the whole device is moving it won’t help much. When you are using Cyber Eyez (especially in the beginning) be deliberate when taking your pictures. By deliberate, we mean be patient, line up the frame and tap your finger and try not to shake the device. It takes a little practice, but you will get the hang of it!

Exiting Cyber Eyez

To exit Cyber Eyez, click the “home” button on your device.
