Features & Capabilities

eyeHear helps make conversations more accessible for deaf and hard-of-hearing users. Press and hold to caption speech in large, easy-to-read text, or use the keyboard when speech recognition is unavailable. It’s designed for everyday situations where a sign language interpreter isn’t available.

Each captioning session is saved to on-device History, where you can review, copy, or share conversations when you choose. eyeHear is free with no in-app purchases, and your audio, captions, and usage records stay on your device. Speech recognition is provided through Siri when supported. eyeHear is an accessibility aid and not a replacement for a qualified interpreter or CART provider.

User Reviews

EyeHear is widely praised as a life-changing, easy-to-use, free captioning tool that helps hard-of-hearing users and improves communication in medical, home, and noisy environments. The top drawbacks are the need to constantly press the screen for captions, lack of text-size controls, and occasional startup/reliability hiccups. Overall, users value its accessibility and impact, while requesting workflow improvements for continuous captions and adjustable typography.
Pros
  • Life-changing tool for hard-of-hearing individuals; dramatically improves communication at home, in hospitals, and with families.
  • Easy to use, free and accessible.
  • High transcription accuracy and readability, effective with masks and in noisy environments.
  • Valuable in medical/elder-care settings for patients, families, and clinicians.
Cons
  • Must press and hold the screen to capture captions; there is no continuous captioning mode or toggle.
  • Text size controls are missing or inconsistent, making some captions hard to read.
  • Occasional reliability issues: starting delays, first-word omissions, or captions hanging after a few words.

This app used to work very well for me to communicate with my elderly Dad - but once it updated, it’s basically useless. Cuts off the last word of every sentence and simply doesn’t work 90% of the time. Please fix it

Installed. Opened. Tested. Nothing appears on screen. Tested again. Same result. Checked app website. No phone support. Getting Started guide links to different website which requires registration. Registration is a form of signing up. Instructions and all requirements ought to be clearly, succinctly on main website page.
