Help for people who are hard of hearing
Live captions for deaf and hard-of-hearing people with no extra apps or equipment. The service listens to the speaker through the microphone and puts the words on screen at once, so you can follow a talk, a meeting, or a class.
How to do it
Choose Speech to text
This source is selected by default. Choose the recording language using the small button to the right of Listen. It is separate from the interface language.
Press Listen
Allow microphone access and keep the device close to the speaker. Take turns: noise and overlapping voices reduce accuracy.
Make the text readable
Open Aa above the text to change size, font and weight. Full screen hides source settings while keeping Listen available.
Check and save
Stop listening and check important names and numbers. Choose a format in Download text. Transcription can make errors and does not replace professional assistance.
