Hearing Disability | AT&T Accessibility
I love to garden.
I love to paint.
I love to spend time
talking with my friends,
chatting with them.
My disability is
that I am deaf.
I cannot hear at all.

Accessibility features
are very important,
so I look in Settings
on my mobile device,
whichever one
I may be using,
or whatever kind of
tablet that you may have,
there are a number of
accessibility
features in Settings.
Brightness or darkness,
you can change the font size.
Closed captioning is
typically found in there.
Flash and vibrate features
are found in the Settings.
For example, if I am busy
I will use the Flashing Alert.
When I decide to turn it on,
and I am doing something,
I can easily see
that the flash is on,
and I know to pick up
my phone to answer the message
or do whatever I need to
do to reply using my phone.
The most beneficial apps
to me are Sorenson;
it’s a Video Relay Service
application.
Glide;
that is for short, five-minute
or less video messages,
it’s a video text message
that you can point-to-point
contact, send to somebody else.
When I was growing up,
I had to depend on
people who could hear.
Now, with the advent
of all of this technology,
everything is immediate.
You can click on something,
and it’s such a big
timesaver for me.
It’s really phenomenal.
