Scanmarker is a cool gadget - a digital highlighter - that summarizes, reads aloud, translates and transfers the excerpts to any electronic hardware (computer, smartphone). It saves time and effort in processing printed information. A useful accessory to all who work with texts. So far, so good - rather standard thing. Until, this elderly lady submitted feedback to their Facebook page describing how it changed her life - literally!

Thank you. I am enjoying my scanmarker so very much. I am 63 and have dyslexia ( I read at a 3rd grade level) for the first time in my life I am reading along with the scanmarker and enjoying a book. I am finding it hard to put my book down now. The book I am reading was given to me for Christmas. I trid reading it before and did not get pass the first chapter I was very disappointed that it was so hard to read. Not because I did not like it. But because it so hard to figer out the words and know what I am reading at the same time. I have always wanted someone to read books to me all my life. Now I have the scanmaker to do it with me thank you for all your help and time. God bless you.”
