- 📦eyeHear: Live Speech to Text updated to version 1.7.4• While you caption, a mic symbol and the word "Listening" now show at the top of the caption screen, so you can tell eyeHear is listening without relying on the gray background.
• New installs, and reinstalls, now keep History for 30 days. If you already use eyeHear, your current setting stays as it is, so you won't lose anything.
• The first time you open eyeHear, a short notice says how long captions are saved and asks you to let people know when a conversation is private. A reminder to let people know before you share also appears at the end of the History list and each conversation.
• Saved History is now protected by iOS Data Protection and can't be opened while your device is locked.
• In typing mode, with a hardware keyboard or Full Keyboard Access, you can leave the editor with Escape or Command-Return. The keyboard's bar also has a labeled Done button. Return still exits.
• On iPhone, deleting the last caption from a conversation closes the empty screen, and VoiceOver announces deletions in History. Deleting the conversation the caption screen is showing now clears it from the caption screen too.
• More accessibility fixes: at the largest text sizes, Theme and Caption Size Mode become menus whose text fits, and orange warning symbols have stronger contrast in Light mode.
• A page that fails to load in the in-app browser now says so, with Try Again. VoiceOver no longer stops on the "Press and hold" prompt for returning users and can copy the version from Settings. The Open Settings button has a larger tap target, and in landscape the "Press and hold" prompt is centered.
• Support and other web pages now open in Safari. Only the Privacy Policy, Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy, and Terms of Use open inside eyeHear.… more - 📦eyeHear: Live Speech to Text updated to version 1.7.3• The caption screen now starts blank instead of showing your last caption. When a caption is done, tap New at the top left to clear the screen and start over. Nothing is deleted: History keeps your captions as before.
• If eyeHear has been in the background for 5 minutes or more, a finished caption clears when you come back, so an old conversation isn't the first thing you see.
• In typing mode, notices no longer cover what you type, the keyboard button no longer covers the ends of your lines, and your text grows larger at the biggest text sizes.
• VoiceOver now names the typing area "Note" and reads typing mode in order.
• Error screens now show the support code right under the heading instead of further down.
• Stronger contrast on the Allow button when you first open eyeHear, on Try Again, and on the main button of error screens.… more - 🆕eyeHear: Live Speech to Text first spotted by AppInsiderUnited States (found via developer)
- 📦eyeHear: Live Speech to Text version 1.7.2• On iPad with a keyboard, the menu bar now has Captioning, History and Help menus. Press Command-L to start or stop captioning.
• In History, Clear All now asks you to confirm before it deletes your captions.
• When captioning can't start because of something on your device, such as the microphone being in use or a setting that is turned off, eyeHear now names the likely cause and the next step. When speech recognition fails, Get Help opens the support form with the details already filled in.
• Better accessibility: stronger contrast on buttons and links, Voice Control names for the Caption Size buttons ("Smaller" and "Larger"), and the first-run hint now pulses a few times instead of forever.
• Fixed Size captions that run past the screen now open on the newest words instead of the oldest.… more - 🆕eyeHear: Live Speech to Text released on the App Store

About eyeHear: Live Speech to Text
eyeHear allows anyone with an iPhone to caption any conversation anywhere.
Press and hold the screen to caption what you or anyone else is saying in large, easy-to-read text. If speech isn't available, you can also use the keyboard to quickly type and still show large type.
Choose how big captions look: let them shrink to fit the screen, or set a fixed size up to very large text. eyeHear also works on iPad and iPhone Duo.
Every session is saved to History on your device, grouped into conversations, so you can read one again later, copy it, or share it if you choose to.
eyeHear was designed to enable easier conversation for the deaf and hard-of-hearing communities in situations where sign language is not available.
eyeHear is free with no in-app purchases. eyeHear uses Apple's speech recognition to provide captioning free-of-charge to users. When your device and language support it, that recognition runs on your device, so your conversations don't need to leave it. Your captions stay on your device, and eyeHear never receives your audio, your captions, or a record of your usage.
eyeHear is an aid, not a substitute for a qualified interpreter or CART provider. Captions can be wrong, especially with strong accents, fast speech, or noisy rooms. Don't rely on eyeHear alone when a mistake could cause serious harm, such as emergency instructions, informed consent, or medication instructions.
