Angelina
"This feature is incredible. If I'm in a loud lecture hall, or if I have trouble understanding the professor, or if I'm just too tired to process the words, the live caption feature has been amazing."
Natalie
"The ability to live caption is my favorite. I have partial hearing loss, and while I can still hear well, it makes it tricky to focus for a long time or understand when there is background sound in the class. The captions help me clear up what I think I heard and if not I can mark the time stamp to re-listen to the audio later."

Ella
"This feature has to be my favorite because it makes the app more accessible, and also allows for me to have time to catchup on notes because I have the last 2-3 sentences there."
Tia
"I have an auditory processing disorder, so it's hard to hear what the professor is saying in class. With captions, I can understand so much more of what they're saying."
