That’s not free. Apples Apple ID management is atrocious. How do you password reset an ID you own? They need to move to having the students ID under both their parents and the school, detachable from the school when a kid moves. The devic

Interesting idea. Voice modulation software that converts your voice to how you sound in your own head. I imagine it sort of like an eye test. Play two samples, A/B test in rapid succession until you get a match.
