Free Magnifier App Zoom Plus for Android Phones as Alternative for Hardware Video Magnifier Released

Zoom Plus makes text easier to read by zooming in and changing colours.
Zoom Plus is a video magnifier, making text easier to read by zooming in.
It also lets you change the colors and contrast of the text and background, which can help with dyslexia, low vision and color blindness.

Hardware video magnifier devices cost a great deal of money, so to widen the availability of this highly useful technology 232 Studios & Ian Hamilton have released it as an app for Android phones for free.

In this case free means totally free, no advertising, and it will always be totally free. Performance is highly dependent on your device - if you have a higher quality camera and processor you have then the images will be sharper and it will run more smoothly.

Initial public release, a key feature of this app is its simplicity so they aren’t planning on adding extra features. Further development will be bug fixing, performance improvements and enhancing the existing functionality, by for example adding screen-reader support.

The app has the same kind of functionality that you would find on a $500-1500 video magnifier (zoom in/out, high contrast, inverted, yellow on black), and with the addition of blue and yellow dyslexia friendly coloured overlays.

The purpose of it is to open up magnification technology to people who currently find the price prohibitively expensive, so with that in mind, it's completely free.
