## Description

Live captions for dinner tables, family gathering, moments that matter. Built for hearing accessibility. 100% on-device — your conversations stay yours.

Hark turns spoken conversations into live captions on your iPhone — large, legible text that updates as people talk. Built for hearing-impaired people who want to follow what's being said at dinner tables, meetings, or anywhere a conversation matters.

Lay your iPhone flat on the table. Tap Listen. Read.

Everything runs entirely on your device using Apple's on-device speech recognition. No microphone audio leaves your iPhone. No cloud, no account, no analytics, no ads. Your conversations stay private — always.

WHAT YOU CAN DO
• Live captions in real time as people speak
• Pause and resume without losing context
• Adjustable text size from 16pt to 34pt for any reading distance
• Bookmark important moments during a conversation
• Save and browse past conversations by category
• Search across your full conversation history
• Edit captions after the fact to fix transcription errors
• Share or export any conversation as plain text
• Home screen widget to start listening with one tap

DESIGNED FOR HEARING ACCESSIBILITY
Hark was built for someone specific: a woman who couldn't follow conversations at family dinners. Every design choice — the large text, the calm interface, the flat-on-the-table layout, the lack of visual noise — comes from that real-world need. We hope it helps you too.

FULLY PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• On-device speech recognition (Apple iOS 26 SpeechAnalyzer)
• No data ever leaves your iPhone
• No account, no sign-up, no email required
• No ads, no trackers, no analytics
• Works offline once the language model is downloaded

LANGUAGES
Available in English and French — with the same on-device privacy guarantees for both.

Made with care by a French independent developer for his hearing-impaired wife. I hope Hark helps your family conversations be as full and rich as everyone else's.
