About this app

This application simply displays the words that it hears on the screen in large letters.

It was written as an aid to communication with deaf people. I have shared it here just in case other people find it useful.

The size of the font can be configured.

It continually listens and displays text when a sentence has finished. As with all apps that use the Google speech recognition service, it is better to speak slowly and clearly.

V1.0 - First release
V1.1 - Added reverse scroll feature, improved scrolling
V1.2 - Fixed intermittent crash, added clear text feature

Ratings and reviews

It's a good idea, and it works some of the time with people in the room, which isn't what I needed, since I read lips very well. I tried to use it to understand media without captions and phone calls, and it only told me what I said, not what was coming over the phone. NOT very helpful.

works ok, sometimes stops working and you have to close it. lacks manual editing, copy and paste. am going to try Google's Live Transcribe app now.

Doesn't do anything except show adverts and ask to pay for upgrade.
