Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The tags are simple, but getting real use out of them means installing an app, working with the phone's screen reader, and building a labeling routine. A family member or the user can do this with the app's instructions in about half an hour, so guided setup fits.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

This kit gives you 200 small tags for labeling things around the kitchen, so someone who can't read packaging or labels can identify pantry, cupboard, and refrigerator items. You stick or clip a tag on an item, record or type a label in the free WayAround app, then hold your phone over the tag later to see or hear what it says. The pack mixes 50 stickers, 50 magnets, and 50 clips with 25 on-metal stickers and 25 on-metal clips. The on-metal tags matter, because the regular round ones won't work on metal cans or surfaces. Spoken labels depend on VoiceOver or TalkBack being turned on, and the tags themselves do nothing without the app.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Peel and stick a tag on an item, or snap on a clip or magnet. Match the tag type to the item: on-metal tags for metal surfaces.
  • With a guide
    1. Download the free WayAround app on your iPhone or Android phone.
    2. Turn on VoiceOver (iPhone) or TalkBack (Android) if you want labels read aloud.
    3. Scan a tag with your phone, then type or record the label for that item. Add details like expiration dates if you want.
    4. Plan on about 30 minutes to learn the app and tag your first dozen items.
