Product Description: 

HelpTalk is directed at people unable to communicate fluently orally or through writing with health professionals, family, or any other person. HelpTalk allows users to create sets of actions that represent their needs in terms of communication, with the actions most suited for each disability/user. When the user taps each of the options the device speaks the selected command.

Main Features: 

  • Create a profile containing the actions most useful to any situation. A user can create a profile suited for their day-to-day life, a specific event, traveling, education, etc..
  • When each action is tapped, the device speaks the respective command.
  • Create profiles in multiple languages (English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Finish, Danish, Hungarian, Norwegian, Polish, Swedish).
  • Text-to-speech engine is needed for the selected language installed on the device.
  • If what the user wants to express isn't contained in the currently loaded profile, switch to the "Talk" screen to write any sentence.
  • HelpTalk remembers the most common sentences typed so that the user can have easy access after writing just a few characters.
  • For users with reduced dexterity, HelpTalk presents two big Yes/No buttons.
  • If what the user wants to express isn't contained in the currently loaded profile, the user can switch to this screen to answer basic questions.
  • HelpTalk allows the user to configure an emergency phone number and an emergency message.
  • When the user taps the S.O.S. button, an SMS message is sent to the configured number. The user also has the option to include his current location's coordinates.
  • Using HelpTalk, when the phone receives a specific message from a specific number, it replies with the user's current location. For increased security, the user is allowed to set a custom trigger message and the phone number authorized to send the location requests.
  • HelpTalk uses the device's Text-to-speech engine to speak all the actions.
  • HelpTalk provides links to Text-to-speech engines in other languages or with different voices.
