Is StreamVox helpful for hard-of-hearing users?

Last updated October 7, 2026

StreamVox can be very helpful for people who have difficulty hearing speech. Live on-screen subtitles make calls, meetings, and videos easier to follow.

How it helps

  • Real-time captions for the people around you, or for anything your device is playing
  • Adjustable font size — up to 72px for low-vision users
  • High-contrast text color options
  • On Windows and Mac, the overlay can be moved and resized anywhere on screen; on iPhone it is a Picture in Picture window you can drag

StreamVox is not a medical device. It is an accessibility-friendly tool, not certified equipment.
