DeafAccess is a simple and reliable platform that helps deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals connect with professional sign language interpreters across Uganda.

Book Interpreters with Ease

Finding an interpreter shouldn’t be difficult. With DeafAccess, you can quickly book a certified sign language interpreter for either an in-person appointment or a video call. Just choose the date, time, and location that works for you. If meeting in person isn’t possible, you can connect remotely using our built-in video calling feature or through platforms like Google Meet, Zoom, WhatsApp, or Microsoft Teams.

Video Calls Made Simple

You can start an instant video call or schedule one in advance directly in the app. Our built-in video calling feature makes communication smooth and clear, without needing to install extra apps.

Real-Time Chat

Stay connected with interpreters and members of the community through real-time messaging. Send text messages, share images, and communicate easily while managing your bookings.

Community Hub

DeafAccess also brings people together. Join a welcoming community of deaf individuals, interpreters, and supporters. Share your experiences, post updates, comment on discussions, and connect with others who understand your journey.

Your Profile & Preferences
