Really appreciate the breakdown of the video structure you provided at the beginning! Since becoming visually impaired, my ability to and stamina for learning information is not nearly what it used to be. So, having some kind of structure laid out at the beginning like this makes it easier for me to not just get overwhelmed and give up.

Hi Sam I've been using super nova since 2003 it really helps me with my computer use. I only use Mag

[HopesAndDreams]

This software was a life saver for me. I’ve used Zoom Text for over 10 years. After using Supernova this week, I’m definitely not going back to ZT. I feel like my vision has significantly improved, and plus my computer stopped crashing.

[scottcre]

I am new to all of this could you do a video on your computer and monitor set up? that would be so helpful.

I just bought the Dolphin USB. Cant wait for it to get here!!!

[ruinfox]

Thanks for shouting out this piece of software, its perfect and exactly what im looking for,

[traviseller]

This software looks amazing. The price isn’t horrible for what it does and being that not a huge array of people are going to be buying this. The only thing that I really hate about low vision, software, and products is to solve the price makes them inaccessible. $1000 to a lot of people is a huge amount for them to bring out of their budget if they are disabled. But it looks amazing.

[harpreetthind]

Thanks for making this video. I am a zoom text user and JAWS user you would recommend sticking with those right

[KonjikiKonjiki]

Hi Sam, after two or so years now living the visually impaired life, I'm finally realising how much it has affected my ability to learn. Pre V I P, I was always happy to bare bones my tech as much as possible, and Google the crap out of issues I needed to resolve. Now I find I need to focus so hard mentally to do things that used to be straightforward, and it's really hard to learn unintuitive things like a lot of software. So I'm excited Dolphin has come out with this sc reen reader that sounds maybe easier to learn than JAWS for me, plus Dolphin is the company that makes the Reader program my country uses to access the public library offerings for the print disabled.

I used to have supernova magnifier on my work laptop when it was windows 7. When work swapped my laptop for a windows 10 machine I had supernova installed again and it just didn’t play nicely. Very laggy and unusable. Spoke to dolphin support and the laptop spec seemed fine but it just would not work well so I have used the windows magnifier instead. Recently changed laptop to a machine with more RAM and newer CPU so decided to get supernova installed again. Worked a bit better this time but still problems, outlook and chrome crashing several times in just a couple of hours use. So I gave up again. We have a lot of extra security software on our work machines and I guess it’s just not compatible with supernova but it is disappointing to have to give up on it as whilst windows magnifier is fine, it’s not as featured as supernova.

Thanks for the review. Just sub’d to your channel. Been living with Stargardt’s for the last 18 years. Luckily my vision isn’t too bad overall but still challenges me everyday

[TheRter]

This is real awesome thanks for sharing I'm definitely going to have to look into this because what I've been trying to usr lately that I was told to try isn't working out for me though.

[jdadams]

Wow! I have used ZoomText for years and love it but after seeing this I think this one might be better! You can't scan and read documents with zoomtext, and sometimes I really need that ability.

[windyho]

Wondering if you can make a
Tutorial of Fusion professional screen reader?

[LiveAccessible]

Hey Sam! Great video! Hahahaha. Less system boggy than Zoomtext huh? That's good to know. 😀 I tried out the free 30 day trial, but I went back to magnifier.

[scottcbarlow]

This looks like a great option. With Zoomtext being so very heavy on a system and the features aren't as great as they were at one time. And, the price sounds really good as well. Thanks for doing this video. Maybe you could do an additional video getting into all the other features of this product.

[Dewabarasunderan]

2:46 Can I set the control panel to dark mode?
3:50 Can I customize these shortcuts to different key bindings?
4:50 Is there a quick overview mode, where I can toggle full screen magnification but zoom out temporarily to get a quick overview by holding down a key?

[jimkleinert]

Great tool. I just got a Magnalink Tab, so this is just a few days late... But I noticed you have a large-screen monitor with touch? m What is that device? I would like to know what manufacturer and model you use. I'm a CAD engineer, and I really could use something like that, but I have no idea where to even start the search. Thanks for any feedback.

[karenmac]

Great detail video they do have free trial on there website. Thanks

[rdkrussel]

Zoomtext has been wrecking my computer. May have to try this

[douba]

One more thing which is expensive as fuck. Only for people who are rich enough....
