CaptionPad
by CaptionPad
A single-purpose captioning screen with an on/off switch and a handheld microphone, no phone or Wi-Fi needed
What it is
CaptionPad is a dedicated 8-inch captioning display sold with a wireless handheld microphone wand. The person speaking holds the wand a few centimetres from their mouth and their words appear as large live captions on the screen. There is no app to open, no account, no menu and no internet connection: the speech recognition runs on the device itself, it works anywhere, and it does not record or store the conversation. It is aimed at older people with severe hearing loss for whom hearing aids no longer work and a smartphone captioning app is too fiddly to use every day. Sold direct for a one-time price with a 60-day money-back guarantee.
