Hepl Please: Talking phone for Learning Disabled?
Talking phone for Learning Disabled?My son has a learning disability, he is 20 and cannot read much at all. We've tried mobile phones and though he can make calls using a photo menu he cannot manage texts and will often lock or mess up his phone because he cannot read the prompts.
As he is away at a residential college and cannot always answer his mobile when I call him I wondered if there was any way he could make texts by speaking them and have a phone which would read our texts to him, tell him he has a text or a missed call etc. I am not very good on tech, so is there anyone out there who can suggest a good affordable phone with this option or some software we could use? We don't have much cash so cheap as poss please!
Please note I originally posted on the Disability board but was advised to put it on here and the Techie board so have done so!
