To the Editor:
My wife is hearing impaired and uses a Captel phone. I couldn’t imagine a simple solution such as this can’t be found. My wife had an appointment with her audiologist today so I asked for a recommendation. He suggested an app called “Speechlogger.” This appears to be program that would allow a teacher to use a microphone with a speech-to-text display screen so that hearing impaired and the deaf could know what’s being discussed. There are other similar programs that are also mentioned on their website. The costs seem to be minimal.
