Hearing dogs newsletter mentioned Chatable Hearing App . Im trying to find out more information about its use, its costs from people already using it.

I believe it improves quality of sound in restaurants , 1-1 conversations, noisy surrroundings etc, how its 'charged for' eg data, wifi , calls  etc

 

If anyone has info I'd love to hear.  The access for all dept only takes phone calls so I cant ask them - not easily. The last time i made a company call the girl spoke so fast I had to ask a relative to take over.

Thanks @Bambino  and @Cleoriff .    Im looking to find out how good it is for severe loss and what costs are involved. I t was reccommended by Hearing Dogs which must mean its of use across the board for people able to use a smartphone.

Hi I looked at this link quickly and couldnt work out why one has to type into it when I can speak normally into a phone. As i read on it seems this app is for speech impaired children. Im looking for the app which suppresses background noise and improves the quality of 1 - 1 conversations etc. The one i had a quik look at was free with an alternative choice of buying or paying monthly. Thanks for trying 🙂

The costs are prohibative . 100mins a month are free) but if I meet a friend or the family it will go over that. Then i believe its 9.99 a month,  99.00 a year  and lifetime fee Ive forgotten 

Needs thinking about.

Update   I'll download it for a month .  100 mins free.  I might be able to manage that . I'll click off after 50 mins in a meeting. 2x a month should be OK for a trial run.
