Description
Tap your phone to a WayTag, and the shirt tells you it's the navy polo. The bottle tells you it's the antibiotic, twice daily, finish the course. The can tells you it's black beans, expires next March.
WayAround turns everyday objects into things that can speak for themselves, giving blind and low-vision users a faster, more independent way to identify and organize the items around them.
"Information is power, and WayAround takes it to the next level."
Neva Fairchild, retired, American Foundation for the Blind
HOW IT WORKS
Stick, clip, or pin a WayTag (sold separately) onto anything: clothing, medication, pantry items, files, appliances, cables, plants. Use the app to write whatever info you want onto the tag. From then on, a quick tap of your phone reads it back instantly through VoiceOver or your preferred accessibility settings.
No camera. No aiming. No barcode hunting. Just tap and know.
WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT
Identify things in a second. Tap a tag and hear the description immediately. Swipe for more detail when you want it.
Store real information, not just labels. Unlimited characters per tag allows for full washing instructions, dosage schedules, ingredient lists, or links to other resources like a user manual. Rewrite tags as often as you like.
Work the way you already work. WayAround is built around VoiceOver, high-contrast visuals, large type, braille displays, and voice dictation. Whatever accessibility setup you use on your iPhone, the app fits into it.
Stay organized offline. Your tags work without an internet connection, and your data backs up automatically to the cloud when you reconnect.
WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"WayAround is a simple and cost-effective solution for labeling just about anything."
J.J. Meddaugh, AT Guys
"I love it. So much easier than a barcode reader or anything you have to focus with a camera."
Melissa Wagner, user
FOR BUSINESSES AND BRANDS
WayAround's patented public-tag solution lets any business add accessible information that anyone can read with a tap, improving the experience for customers with disabilities and beyond. Learn more at wayaround.com/public.
GETTING STARTED
WayTags come as stickers, magnets, buttons, and clips. Buy them at wayaround.com/shop or through an assistive technology distributor.
COMPATIBILITY
WayAround works with the built-in NFC on iPhone 7 and later. For iPad users or older iPhones, the WayLink Scanner (sold separately) connects via Bluetooth and sends tag info to the app.
