Is the Talking Goggles app still working? I'm trhying to use it on an iphone 5. I've followed earlier instructions on getting the app to work. When I choose video, my statis line says: "network connection in progress". I've waited a few minutes but still don't get a response. The lighting is good.

Hi Mitch, As of a couple days ago, this app was no longer in the app store. Whether the two are related, I am not sure. Regards, Michael

Hi, the network connection in progress message on the status bar is normal when you are using any internet connection. However, I tried with both video camera and the still camera mode and got no results at all. With the video camera I tried putting a printed packet down for it to OCR got nothing. With the still camera mode I tried taking a photo of my cd player and again got no results. I suspect this app is dead, though would prefer other peoples comments as well.
