I thought there was facetime

The whole overall thing is good, but the call sounds like someone is in a microwave, and i thought there was face time but there is not. so it kinda ruined the whole experience for me

Better than InnoCaption

I had downloaded another app first and was using it more because it was already in use and setup. Then the other guys app fell apart. The captions dont keep up with the conversation….sometimes at all.

Rylo is amazing. All the issues I had with the other app are solved. Big Thank you to the Rylo team 👏

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.
