Love these tags
I absolutely love these tags! I love to garden but trying to remember what where and when and also when to harvest is very difficult. I attach them to garden picks and put all info on the tags. I also love to use them on my clothes to tell me what that piece of clothing is and what to wear it with. With the newest update I just click read and all info is read to me without voiceover on. I love using them all over my house inside and out.
United StatesWayAround tags are an ESSENTIAL tool in The Blind Kitchen!
I use WayAround tags in several applications in both my personal and professional kitchens and they are the ONLY labels in my freezers. I also have more than 30 assorted color chef coats and WayAround buttons allow me to quickly and easily select the one I am looking for independently. I like the system of tagging so much that one is included in the first Blind Kitchen Collection. I want people to know how much easier their lives could be if they decided to use the WayAroundsystem.

United StatesEssential for anyone who is blind or visually impaired
I first started using Way Around to help me identify my clothes. Because color identifiers are not accurate, I was able with the help of a sighted person to identify the colors then I created the way tag information. It was very very easy. They also have so many other products that areSo helpful. I only wish I could find a way to let more people know about the product. The support staff is also great! This product was developed by two Blaine engineers who really understand the frustration we face.
United StatesAmazing product
I am not visually impaired and use it to label my houseplants with all of its specific care requirements. This is an amazing concept but it can use some updates to make it even more amazing. Customer service is fantastic. Darwin helped me through the process of using the product and provided exceptional service. Again, the app can use some changes to make it even better but I’m pleased for now. Highly recommend for any user.
United StatesThe Way Around system is THE BEST for blind/VI users
after trying several methods to label clothing, pantry, fridge/freezer and household items, I found the Way Around System to be THE BEST. it consists of your iPhone, the Way Around app, and a variety of adhesive labels, clips and buttons to choose from. simple and intuitive. There are Manny YouTube videos that explain Waze to use the products and step-by-step instruction on using the app. The Way Around Team (including sales, marketing/development and technical Support) get the highest marks for fantastic customer service, prompt, helpful and considerate. I suggest starting off by buying a "sample pack" which includes one of each of the tags/labels/clips/buttons, and you can test them out and decide what will work best for you. Personally, I use mostly the oval hole buttons, which I affix to my clothes using 1.5 inch safety pins; these buttons are machine washable, so it makes laundry sorting a breeze. I also use the oval hole buttons with a rubber band on foods in the fridge, freezer & pantry. I am also discovering many ways to use the adhesive labels and magnetic tags, too. I also purchased a Way Link Device, which helps scan through items a bit faster. The app is 100% accessible with voiceover. The app is easy to use; you can choose to just add a description of the item you are tagging, or drill down the layers to add detailed description of clothing care, purchase date,URL, etc.
United StatesExcellent service & tech
I have been doing business with this company for 2 years and the people behind the products go above & beyond to get me using it correctly and has wonderful customer service. I've got discountz on tags & the way link which works so good! Thanks! 👍
