**Requires first time to be set up with a caregiver for a deafblind** This is an app that has to be felt. Anne is completely powered by gestures and vibrations so you don't have to even look at the screen while you are using it. The few gestures that you need to learn will become muscle memory before you would even realize. Powered by the International Morse Code, you can type and transmit your messages to the people out there, with a combination of just Dots (or Dits) and Lines (or Dahs). And vice versa is even possible. Let us get familiar with all the gestures Basic gestures: 0) Double back tap to open it 1) Tap - Prints the Dot on the screen 2) Swipe Right - Prints the line on the screen 3) Swipe Down - Confirms letter in the typing process 4) Swipe left (one finger) - Deletes the last letter in the current typing process Pro gestures: 5) Swipe left (two fingers) - Clears the current typing 6) Pinch In - Transmits the word currently typing 7) Pinch Out - Transmit the last letter of the word you're currently typing 8) Swipe up - Prints the word from the typing to the chatbox and also vocalizes it. 9) Tap and Hold / Double Tap with Two fingers - Listens for audio to transmit to morse 10) Swipe up (two fingers) - Transmits the latest gesture message (You) in chatbox to morse 11) Swipe down (two fingers) - Transmits the latest audio message (They) in chatbox to morse And I will repeat it, no matter how complex these gestures look, it is a matter of a few tries before they get ingrained into your muscle memory! Oh and don't forget the entire screen is your canvas! Enjoy!

MorseBridge makes communication accessible for the deafblind using Morse code and vibrations. *Note: Installation assistance from an assistant is required for proper setup. MorseBridge is fully navigable through intuitive gestures and vibrations, eliminating the need to look at the screen. The simple gestures will quickly become second nature. Utilizing international Morse code, MorseBridge translates voice to Morse, allowing you to type and send messages that can be heard by others or receive messages that you can understand. Also, you can just shake your phone and AI will describe what is in front of you. Basic Gestures: 1. Tap: Print a dot on the screen. 2. Swipe right: Print a dash on the screen. 3. Swipe down: Confirm the letter during typing. 4. Swipe left (one finger): Delete the last letter in the current typing process. Advanced Gestures: 5. Swipe left (two fingers): Erase everything you've typed. 6. Pinch in: Transmit everything you've typed. 7. Pinch out: Transmit the last letter of the word you're typing. 8. Swipe up: Print everything you've typed and vocalize it. 9. Tap and hold with two fingers: Listen to the interlocutor through voice recognition, which will be translated into Morse. 10. Swipe up (two fingers): Transmit the last message you sent in Morse. 11. Swipe down (two fingers): Transmit the last message sent by the interlocutor in Morse. 12. Shake your phone and take a photo: AI will describe what is in front of you. No matter how complex these gestures may seem, a few tries are all it takes for them to become part of your muscle memory. Remember, the entire screen is your canvas!

Verdict
