There is a cost for each minute of captions generated, paid from a federally administered fund.

Great app for us HoH people. Easy to setup and use. Captioning is high quality. Doesn't drop calls like similar apps do. I really appreciate this app. It's made communication so much easier. One request: I get callers that go to voicemail, but hang up after a few seconds. Spammers or wrong numbers. I'd like to be able to set a minimum length of message to save, so if they hang up after a few seconds, I don't get a notification. Thanks so much for the app!

so far I absolutely love it. it doesnt tell the other party that the call is being translated and saved. I wish it could have its own widgets for samsung so I can have a quick dial from my screen. I also wish it could integrate with Bixy and use this phone instead of the preinstalled Samsung one when using voice calls. good app translates well. Just not super convenient for samsung users that actually use their features.

it's very easy to use. it's free, too. The captioning is a little behind. That's why I give it a 4. Sometimes, it makes me laugh when the captions say something so different w/ what the other person said. I have never used a TTY phone, but I wanted an app that I could "hear" the callers voice, they hear my voice & not a computer generated one & something I don't have to change my phone #. I will receive calls & Innocaptiom will forward the call directly to me. I still see who is calling.
