BeAware is a cutting-edge communication tool designed specifically for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing community. Unlike other apps, BeAware offers a range of advanced features that are unparalleled in the industry.

Ranked in the top 5 on Ycombinator's HackerNews, BeAware has garnered recognition for its exceptional functionality and innovation.

Tired of using apps with subpar user experiences? Look no further. BeAware provides a seamless user experience without any intrusive ads. Moreover, it is free, privacy-safe, open-source, offline-capable, and battery-efficient—making it the ultimate app for Deaf users.

Developed with the Deaf community's needs in mind, BeAware has undergone a meticulous and award-winning development process. This achievement would not have been possible without the invaluable contributions of hundreds of volunteers, testers, and countless design and development iterations.

  • Alert Tool: BeAware offers a highly customizable alert feature that can detect loud noises and communicate them to the Deaf through vibrations, LED flashes, and notifications on both your phone and connected Apple Watch. This means that a Deaf new mom can leave the app running and receive alerts if her baby is crying, or a Deaf delivery driver can move aside to make way for emergency vehicles.
  • Speech-to-Text Transcription: BeAware provides the fastest speech-to-text transcription tool available. It's been optimized for accuracy and works with any language set in your device's settings.
  • Text Functionality: BeAware's text feature is an exceptional notepad app specifically designed for the Deaf. The "Preset Phrases" feature streamlines note-taking, while "Flip Text" makes it easy to display your notes. No more hassle of retyping your custom coffee order at the shop or rotating your phone.
  • Play Text: Another unique aspect of BeAware's text tool is its ability to play the text that you type through voice and video phone calls. If you prefer typing over speaking during an interview, simply write out your responses, and BeAware will vocalize them to the other caller. The spoken language depends on your selected settings.
  • Emoji Board: The Emoji Board feature enables communication with individuals who do not use American Sign Language (ASL). You can choose to communicate using emojis or images uploaded from your photo gallery.

*Users with Usher Syndrome can switch to dark mode on their phone, ensuring enhanced visibility and a tailored app experience.
