You mean a text message?

  You wouldn't have made this comment if you actually looked at the article and saw what the app does.

    Still, snarkiness aside, it's worth asking every once in a while if the problem you're solving is something that actually merits an app at all (or, for that matter, a computer). That said, there does seem to be promise here, as there's a reason we video conference (or talk in person) rather than text-message for everything.

  I thought the same thing - until I read this: "It works by catching conversations from the voices of different individuals and assigning them a color bubble so the deaf person knows who said what. It works with a distributed microphone system on all the devices using the app so that it can distinguish each person from another." That's pretty damn amazing IMHO.

    What makes this better then use assign every microphone to a individual. Is it possible to be 4 individuals and 2 microphones? Then I would be impressed but if it have to be as many microphones as individuals then it just seems over engineered.
