Audio Notes



After completing the webinar on “Assistive Technology Solutions for Reading” from Tools for Life: Georgia’s Assistive Technology Act Program, I decided to blog about the application Audio Notes. Audio Notes is an app that is available on Apple, Android, and Windows products. This is a beneficial app for students who struggle with reading or have reading disabilities because the app will record notes at meetings or lectures. It also allows the user to take notes by drawing, typing, or using the stylus. Audio Notes will highlight the notes while reading them back to the user so they do not have to struggle with reading the material while reviewing or studying. It is convenient that it works on all three devices. It comes at a reasonable price of $4.99 for a download.
