What's New in eyeHear

1.7.2

October 23, 2026

• On iPad with a keyboard, the menu bar now has Captioning, History and Help menus. Press Command-L to start or stop captioning. • In History, Clear All now asks you to confirm before it deletes your captions. • When captioning can't start because of something on your device, such as the microphone being in use or a setting that is turned off, eyeHear now names the likely cause and the next step. When speech recognition fails, Get Help opens the support form with the details already filled in. • Better accessibility: stronger contrast on buttons and links, Voice Control names for the Caption Size buttons ("Smaller" and "Larger"), and the first-run hint now pulses a few times instead of forever. • Fixed Size captions that run past the screen now open on the newest words instead of the oldest.

Good but there’s a gap

Used this with grandma! Touch&Hold to talk (PTT) + auto clear is perfect. But, inability to adjust font is a real miss. Grandma reads pretty well (even smaller sized font) but the font face used by eyeHear gave her trouble. Consequently we gave up. Dev, u have to make font face options.

What have you done?!?!

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

Incredible

This app is truly a godsend. It has helped me so much! Thank you for developing such a helpful application.

In a future update, it’d be great to be able to adjust the size of the font displayed.

In additon, I wish you didn’t have to hold your finger down on the screen as the person talks.

It’s nearly perfect.

I use this all the time. Especially helpful when someone is wearing a mask. The quality of transcription is unusually accurate. Thank you eyehear!
