DeafVoice

This app is an emergency call app for deaf or severely hard of hearing people in Switzerland (https://www.deafvoice.ch).

This service is provided by the Deaf Central Foundation Alexander Graham Bell (https://www.gehoerlosenzentrale.ch) in cooperation with Visisoft.

The app converts the emergency information into speech by tapping the corresponding icons and transmits this to the emergency call center in the event of an emergency. The emergency call center is alerted and receives the information entered on the current emergency situation and the current location of the emergency call sent.

The spoken response from the emergency call center is converted into written text by the app and shown on the display. If necessary, you can respond to this with an input on the keyboard and the text is transmitted back to the emergency call center in the language of the app.

The functional use of the app in a real emergency is only possible if consent to access the GPS sensor has been given and the personal data is fully specified under Settings.

Independent of this, a demo mode is available.
