HearText – Voice to Big Text

Speak & Show to Who Can't Hear

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Just open the app and transcription starts. Supporting natural conversation. An app designed for face-to-face communication with people who have difficulty hearing. "Can you hear me?" When hearing gets in the way, conversation shouldn't stop. HearText turns your voice into large, clear text on screen—mirrored so the person across from you can read it naturally. You hold the phone and speak. They read. No handoff, no setup, no sign-up. HOW IT WORKS Speak into your phone. Your words appear in big text, flipped to face the other person.

No clutter. Speak and show.
