Singular Hearing, a subsidiary of Singular Software and creator of HeardThat, announced today it launched an early release of its HeardThat app for the iPhone. For those with hearing loss, noisy environments like shops and restaurant patios can make it nearly impossible to hold conversations. HeardThat turns iPhones into powerful hearing assistive devices to make voices more clear. 

 HeadThat's AI and machine learning software was built using thousands of hours of recor ded speech and noise to learn the difference between speech and ambient noise. Rather than amplifying or reducing all sound entirely, HeardThat separates speech from noise to deliver enhanced voice audio while minimizing background noise. 

Smartphones, like the iPhone, have the processing power, memory and battery life to support HeardThat's powerful algorithms, unlike small wearable hearing devices. The app works in conjunction with earphones or hearing aids when connected to the iPhone, either directly or via Bluetooth. 

"We've spent years researching, developing and fine-tuning HeardThat for those that have trouble conversing in noisy social situations," said Singular Hearing CEO Dr. Bruce Sharpe. "Nothing works quite like HeardThat does and we're thrilled to be able to deliver enhanced voice clarity to those who need it."
