5 ★ I guess it really should be 4.5 stars because it still has some technical glishes. However, it's a great program. I went to get some personal business and used AVA to communicate, even the person I was dealing with was impressed when I used it without another user connected. He then down loaded it and connected to my phone. He was really impressed. A very cool product for those of us who are DEAF.

2 ★ This was a lifesaving app until a few weeks ago when it suddenly quit working at all on my husband's phone (Motorola Droid mini) and he's the deaf guy! Also, it won't let go of the microphone after I'm done with the app (Samsung Galaxy Note 4). Was working perfectly until mid-Sept on my phone and until 2 weeks ago on my husband's. Brute that we were telling everyone how spectacular it was. Extremely disappointed at the moment.

5 ★ Great app for us latened deaf. well worth the $30 pro monthly fee. Good costumer service. I like that Ava provides a professional app. In a bind with no wifi or data it can still be used (with less accuracy), which live trascribe cannot do. Great and easy group conversations set-up, which live transcibe lacks. However, I do prefer live transcribe for most day-to-day activities. App needs a little work in my opinion.....better interface and faster/more accuracy when translating. Thank you Ava!

2 ★ I was so excited when I learnt of this app. It works surprisingly well as a standalone. Unfortunately, the excitement didn't last long after trying to call a contact because the app keeps ending the conversation as soon as the callee answers my call (and visa versa). ☹️ This issue happens on various phone brands (HTC One M9, a mix of Samsung, and One Plus 6). Is this a known issue? I really look forward to getting this issue resolved.

5 ★ Personally, I've really enjoyed this app! It is a helpful tool to communicate with no matter if you're hearing or deaf. Support is also very helpful and friendly and deserve a 5-star rating from me! ( I should also mention that I'm not a constant user of the app and am unaware of any problems that might have been occuring with the app)

5 ★ I have been using Ava for the last couple years now because I'm latened deaf. There have been a few problems with the app but nothing that the Ava Team has not fixed. They have great customer service and the developer(s) work with you to fix any problems you have. I use Ava so that I can understand what everyone is saying. I have yet to get 100% accuracy but I believe it's because I don't have a Bluetooth mic for presentations so it picks up background noise. Ava gave me my independence back!

5 ★ It works really well except for strong accents. It'd be nice if editing a word or statement could be easier.

1 ★ Decent enough app 👌 But the monthly subscription price is a little steep. Totally understand paying for a service, the price just isn't for me. There are not enough applications for Deaf/Hoh people for Android so I wish you all success. Edit 12/31 To answer your question, developer : I'm not an occasional user (Deaf) so the monthly price isn't for me. It is too much for ME. Live Transcribe gets the job done just fine, better even. Clear as mud now? I gave you all credit but after that - 1 🌟

2 ★ Only works sometimes. I'm hard of hearing, tried this app during my eyes dr's appointment and it was useless. It didn't work, maybe during 1 minute then stop. It goes offline even with my cellphone full services on. Very dissatisfied. The receptionist was less than 12" away from my cellphone she was speaking loud because I explained to her and still nothing.

5 ★ I originally gave Ava 3 stars because I didnt have a great experience while trying it out. I have been using it for a while now and the transcribing feature has been really handy for me. I'm profoundly deaf and functional mute. I have used the app to communicate with hearing strangers in informal settings and it has been great.

1 ★ I couldn't join a conversation, nor could I start one and have others join. When I tried to scan into someone's conversation, I was taken to the contacts tab, but I couldn't join anything. When people tried to join mine, the scan on their phone wouldn't accept the QR code. We also tried joining via name or username and when they accepted I still would only end up on the contacts page. I left a one start review because this is the only reason we need this app is for our deaf father.

1 ★ I have been trying for the past 2 days to upgrade from free and it isn't letting me. It is very annoying. That is why I gave it a 1 star

1 ★ I find the app only has about 10% accuracy and the things it writes are nowhere close to what the person is saying. Someone was talking about their dog on a leash and the app wrote "pork burrito fart nugget". What?! It's good for a laugh, but not to use for actually understanding what people say. I really hope you're able to improve it, because it's an amazing idea.

2 ★ Sooooooo the voice recognition is good and accurate, but Everytime I try to start a conversation it will not connect to the other person and it ends the conversation immediatly. And according to the reviews, this is happening to everyone.

2 ★ It would be good if I could see what it shows on the app, but it so dark I can barely read it or find any button to start it. I honestly don't know if good app or not. If updates to see with brighter setting, I might be able to give a better rating after fixing the issue.
