iPhone users who may need help communicating

The other person can type a question in large text; the app reads it back without saving it.

Field notes

The setup lets users edit every word in a template or start with a blank card, and includes an optional emergency contact with a call button. A separate assistance-dog panel can explain what the dog does and who to contact for pickup. The site says card text stays on the user's devices, while an optional Wallet pass is signed by a server that keeps nothing.
