Pedius: A Mobile App for Deaf and Hard of Hearing Communication
Pedius is a mobile app developed by Pedius srl that aims to provide phone call accessibility for the deaf and hard of hearing community. Available on the iPhone platform, this free app falls under the Lifestyle category with a subcategory of Health & Fitness.
With Pedius, users can make phone calls to both landline and mobile phones. The app utilizes speech synthesis and voice recognition technologies to facilitate communication. After logging in, users can enter a phone number and initiate a call. Sending messages is simple - just type your message and Pedius will send it to the chosen contact. Alternatively, users can use their own voice during the phone call.
During phone calls, Pedius employs a voice to read out the messages that users write, allowing them to read the responses in real-time on the screen. If users prefer to speak, they can switch to Voice mode and have conversations using their own voice. In cases where the voice transcription is not accurate enough, Pedius automatically suggests alternative options. If needed, users can request the speaker to repeat their message by pressing the "R" button.
As an added bonus, the updated version of Pedius offers 20 free calling minutes upon download. Additionally, users have the option to purchase either 100 premium minutes or unlimited calling for a year. For more information about these offers, users can visit the Pedius website.
