The Lumyeye Pro gesture

One app, one gesture. That's it.

No menu to explore. No VoiceOver swiping. You tap, you speak, you listen.

Tap

Double-tap anywhere on the screen.

No navigation. The gesture is the same everywhere.

Speak

Ask your question, naturally.

"Read this letter", "Play Sinatra", "Where am I?"

Listen

Lumyeye Pro answers. Then goes back to sleep.

Warm voice, no beep. Get back to your life.

Lumyeye Pro never listens without your consent. No always-on, no unfortunate wake word. You decide. Every single time.

Why Lumyeye Pro

One app that replaces everything, and does much more.

Reading that talks back

Mail, books, labels, prescriptions: Lumyeye reads aloud in under a second. And you can ask a question about it.

Live vision Q&A

Vision Live mode streams your camera feed to Gemini Live and answers your voice questions: "what's in front of me?", "read me that sign", "find me a pharmacy". The AI sees your live video (up to 360° as you turn the phone) but never narrates on its own. It's an on-demand assistant, not a safety system.

One command for everything

Spotify, Google Maps, calls, sending mail, battery, flashlight, translation. Two taps, and Lumyeye opens the right app.

Natural warm voice

Not the mechanical voice of VoiceOver. A natural voice that talks, pauses, picks up again. VoiceOver compatible — no relearning.

Strict GDPR, Made in France

No reselling, no ads, no history on Lumyeye's side. European hosting, French team in Paris.

2× faster on Pro

Lumyeye Pro answers 2× faster than Classic. And the word "photo" triggers instant capture, no extra step.

Radical privacy

What Lumyeye doesn't know about you.

No personal cloud, no user profile, no browsable history. The app forgets as you go.

20

Max actions

Only the last 20 actions stay on the phone, so the AI can keep the conversation thread.

0

Data retained

On Lumyeye's side, nothing is kept. No history server, no profile, no reuse.

100%

Wiped on exit

On every full app close, everything is wiped from the phone. On relaunch, you start from zero.

All your assistive gear, in one iPhone.

Lumyeye Pro replaces a whole shelf of dedicated devices. And does much more than any of them can do alone.

What our users say

The reviews that really matter.

Blind and visually impaired users in the US, France, UK and the Maghreb. Collected on App Store and by email, anonymized at their request.

4.5 / 5 on App Store

My iPhone is useful again

The mail was piling up for weeks, I was ashamed. Now I say "read this letter" and it's done in 10 seconds. Honestly, thank you.

My iPhone is mine again

For two years, my iPhone was useless to me unless my husband read every screen. It was humiliating for both of us. With Lumyeye I got it all back: I dictate emails, I find my way with Maps, I listen to Spotify, I call my sister. By myself. My husband got a husband back and not an assistant — and I feel capable again. It sounds small but it's huge.

Finally an app that doesn't forget us

The voice is natural, nothing like VoiceOver. And most importantly it works in Arabic. Finally an app that doesn't forget us in the Maghreb. Thank you.

The app for my mail

With my AMD, the numbers on my bills became impossible to read, even with a magnifier. My granddaughter installed Lumyeye on my phone last month. Now every morning, I ask it to read my mail with my coffee. I know what to pay, what can wait. It's become a ritual, and I'm less anxious.

My wife regained her independence

My wife has advanced glaucoma for four years. Before Lumyeye, I helped her every day: mail, medication leaflets, kitchen labels, oven displays. I'd come home from work and there was always a pile waiting. Since she's been using the app, she manages almost entirely on her own. In the evening, we talk about something other than the to-do list. For her it's a release, and for me too. We got our relationship back, not just a caregiver and a caregivee.

Live Vision mode is magical

At first I thought it was a gimmick. But honestly, I walk around town with the iPhone in my hand, and Lumyeye describes the shops, the windows, the people as I go. Yesterday I found the pharmacy I usually go to, alone. Before I always depended on my brother. Now I go out alone, and it gave me a life back. I almost cried writing this.

Frequently asked

What you ask us most.

Is Lumyeye Pro suitable for blind users?

Yes, fully. Lumyeye Pro is voice-driven: a tap or double-tap anywhere on screen triggers listening, and the app goes back to sleep automatically when the answer ends. The natural warm voice is clear and crisp, and the VoiceOver integration is fluid (months of work) — you keep your habits, no relearning. And a voice onboarding on first launch explains everything.

Does the app listen all the time?

No, never. The mic stays off until you trigger listening with a tap or double-tap. No always-on, no wake word that could fire on its own. You decide when the app listens, every single time.

Can Lumyeye Pro read my emails?

For now, Lumyeye Pro can send mail by voice to any recipient, including yourself. You dictate, the app sends it from your address, without opening Mail. Super useful to "keep a note": a web search result, a recipe, a photo, an article read aloud — you email yourself the content to find later. Reading received mail is coming in a future update. For paper mail, OCR is instant.

How do you activate Lumyeye Pro?

A simple tap or a double-tap anywhere on screen. No button to find, no menu. The app listens, answers, then goes back to sleep automatically. To interrupt an answer, a single or double tap is enough. On first launch, a voice onboarding walks you through the main features.

Why choose Lumyeye Pro?

Lumyeye Pro adds three things no single product combines today: (1) reading that talks back (you ask questions about the document), (2) live vision streaming (Gemini Live, real-time streaming, not photo by photo), (3) a unified voice command for your whole iPhone (Spotify, Google Maps, calls, mail, battery, translation). The combination of these three pillars is what replaces a whole shelf of hardware.

What's the difference between Lumyeye Classic and Lumyeye Pro?

Lumyeye Pro adds the Live Vision mode (Gemini), Ray-Ban Meta (soon), phone calls, send mail by voice, launching Spotify and Google Maps by voice command, and a natural warm voice. PRO is iOS 16+ only.

How much does the free trial cost?

Nothing. No credit card required. Lumyeye Classic: 30 free queries. Lumyeye Pro: 40 free queries, use them whenever. No account to create on opening — your email is only requested at first payment.

Is my data sold?

No, never. No reselling, no ads. European hosting, strict GDPR compliance. Your queries stay confidential.

Does Lumyeye work offline?

Partially. Fast OCR and simple object ID work locally. Live Vision and conversational answers require an internet connection.

What smart glasses does PRO work with?

With Ray-Ban Meta (2nd gen) — compatibility coming soon. Other glasses will be supported progressively, prioritizing those with a front camera and a speaker.

How do I cancel?

In one step, from the App Store. No questions asked. No retention attempts. You keep access until the end of the paid period.
