Awesome Apps for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired
Every day the iPhone assists people in living better lives. Here are several great apps focused on helping those who are deaf or hearing impaired with communication, entertainment, and more.
For those who want an app that provides subtitles for TV shows and movies.
When you are at home, it is easier to get subtitles for the shows you want. But, when you are out it’s more of a challenge. Subtitles Viewer! is an app that provides subtitles for television shows and movies. These come from the site Opensubtitles.org and are available in a variety of languages including English, Spanish, French, and German.
