Four buttons, zero complexity
The screen is always the same, so you quickly remember where everything is. Each corner is one feature. Scroll on and we'll highlight them one by one.
How it works
The whole app on one screen
Ariadne Sense is one simple screen with four large buttons. Scroll down to learn each one: what it does on a tap, on a hold, and how it helps.
Vibration: proximity assist
- Tap
Turns vibration on or off.
- How it works
The phone vibrates more strongly the closer you are to an obstacle. Below a safety threshold it starts to pulse. Requires an iPhone with a LiDAR sensor.
- When it helps
When you want to feel obstacles without listening to spoken prompts, whether on the move, in noise, or alongside the AI description.
Automatic AI assistant
- Tap
Turns automatic mode on or off.
- How it works
The app detects when the scene in front of you changes and describes your surroundings aloud, without being asked.
- When it helps
On a walk and anywhere you want continuous awareness of your surroundings without asking again and again.
Extended description and voice questions
- Tap
A detailed, longer description of what's in front of you, including reading text aloud.
- Hold
Records your question by voice. Release to send it and hear the answer.
- When it helps
When you want to ask about something specific, read a document, or ask “what am I holding?”.
Skip / Stop
- Tap
Stops the current readout or answer and lets you carry on.
- How it works
Immediately stops the speech when the information is no longer needed.
- When it helps
When you've heard what you wanted and don't want to wait for the rest.
That's it. Simple, right?
Four buttons give you the full power of Ariadne Sense. The camera, sensors and artificial intelligence are handled by the app.
