Product Description: 

Next Generation Text (NGT) Lite is a mobile app designed to help individuals with hearing or speech impairments make phone calls across different devices while on the move. NGT users can either make direct text-to-text calls with others who have the app or a textphone or use a text relay assistant to communicate with those who do not have the app. The text relay assistant will be connected automatically to relay the call and type down the other person’s message, which will be displayed on the NGT screen.

Main Features: 

  • Textphone: Users can still make calls with their standard textphone.
  • NGT Lite helps users communicate in English over the phone: hearing, deaf, or speech-impaired.
  • Relay Assistant: Use the confidential text relay service and a Relay Assistant will speak or type what a user is saying to the other person.
  • Type direct: Users can also type directly to the other person if they're also using the app or a textphone.

Primary Specifications: 

  • Compatible with Mac OS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS.
