HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted December 17, 2021 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hearing access looks different for different people. Tonight a dear friend with hearing loss and bilateral hearing aids will be joining in a dinner party. Access to the fast paced speech when this group of friends gathers is difficult for her. So I set up speech to text using Roger Select, Roger MyLink neckloop and an android tablet running LiveTranscribe. This set up, along with good communication strategies, will give our friend better access. Have you tried it ?

HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted December 18, 2021 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 @pdk It was a great night. Thanks. We have used this set up for our friend before. It works very well. She is able to participate in group conversations with this extra support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdk Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 The YouTube link will go on my website. It can be included on the link to live transcribe. Is that ok? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HearPeers Heroes Mary Featherston Posted December 19, 2021 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted December 19, 2021 Wow, very good, Mary Beth. I wish I'd had that option when I was struggling with hearing aids that didn't help much anymore. Mary Beth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted January 27, 2022 Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 I love Live Transcribe. It has allowed me to have conversations with my wife that I could not have with my hearing aids. I also read that there will be a new app with Android version 12 that will also work for phone calls. Anyone try that? Mary Beth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Mary Beth Posted January 27, 2022 Author HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted January 27, 2022 @Kevin If you are in the US, InnoCaption is already available for phone calls. It’s free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
