HearingFriend Live Caption Amp

When it's hard to catch what family members are saying, put the phone on the table and press one big green button — their speech becomes large captions on screen.

HearingFriend is an assistive tool designed for seniors with age-related hearing decline:

LIVE CAPTIONS • Words appear as people speak — no waiting • Text can be made very large and easy to read • Supports Mandarin, English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, Hindi and Indonesian • Works completely offline once the model is downloaded

HEARING AMPLIFIER • Plug in headphones (wired or Bluetooth) and amplify nearby voices • Quiet speech is boosted automatically; sudden loud noises are limited so they don't startle you • Three volume levels, plus a treble boost that makes consonants clearer

DESIGNED FOR SENIORS • Big buttons, big text, clear colors — nothing to learn • Conversations are saved for 30 days, so you can always check what was just said • Long-press any line to fix a mistake — the app remembers and corrects it automatically next time • Add frequent names and places to “My words” for better accuracy • Caption differentiation: your own words fade so other people's stand out

PRIVACY • Everything stays on your phone — no uploads, no ads, no tracking • Cloud backup is disabled; nothing is sent to any server

Note: this is not a medical device and cannot replace a hearing aid. If you have concerns about your hearing, please see an ENT doctor or an audiologist.
