New app helps PwD to communicate easily
March 6, 2017
A new app called 'iCanText' is helping people with disabilities who cannot speak, read or write to text others with the help of pictures.
The communication app allows people with disabilities to convert a picture into a text. For example, there is a picture slider that allows the person with disability to select a picture.
The picture will say what it means. When the button 'Send Text' is pressed, the text of the picture will be sent to another person's number.
This app is available in the app store for iOS devices.
