The article focuses on the decision by the founder of the "ScribeMe" app for the blind and visually impaired to make the application free in Egypt after previously charging a fee. This move comes in response to complaints about the rising subscription costs. He explained that the app was marketed outside Egypt for a year in the U.S. and Europe to ensure financial stability before eliminating the local charge. He noted that the subscription fee was set at $20 per month outside Egypt, but many users were unable to pay, especially due to the low income of the visually impaired and the difficulty in acquiring smartphones. "ScribeMe" is an intelligent assistant that relies on artificial intelligence to help the blind recognize their surroundings and enhance their independence. Thousands of people in 140 countries use it on smartphones and Meta's smart glasses. The founder stated that the goal is to provide computers and phones to visually impaired individuals who cannot afford them, so they can benefit from the app for free.
