Wish I’d known about this sooner

I’m really hard of hearings thanks to a 22-yr Army career and phone calls can be frustrating. Hearing aids help but I still miss a lot. This app has made a huge difference in my ability to understand a conversation and I’ve only used it briefly.

Clear voices much better!

I am sooo excited. I have friends and family who avoid calling me because of my hearing impairment. Now I can talk to them! This is life changing! Thank you to whomever developed this app!

Lousy. Doesn’t have Call Filtering System.

I have been called by spammers like never before.

FAQ

What does Nagish do?

Nagish provides real-time captions for both phone calls and in-person conversations. It allows deaf and hard-of-hearing users to participate in communication more easily by transcribing spoken words into text.

How does Nagish make calls accessible?

When you make or receive a call, Nagish displays live captions of what the other person is saying. You can also type responses that will be spoken aloud. This eliminates the need for interpreters or relay services.

Is Nagish free to use?

The app is free for eligible users, funded by a federally administered fund. There is a cost per minute for generated captions, which is also covered by this fund for registered users with hearing loss.

What devices is Nagish compatible with?

The description does not specify device compatibility, but it functions as a native phone app and can transcribe in-person conversations, suggesting it is available on smartphones and potentially other mobile devices.

Can I use Nagish for in-person conversations?

Yes, Nagish Live transcribes in-person conversations in real time. This feature is useful for situations like doctor's appointments, lectures, or travel.
