HearkentDigital Talking Watch for Ladies with American Accent Voice LCD Big Numbers Watch for Visually impaired, Elderly or Blind People

I purchased this watch for my 95 year old Aunt. She really likes it. The numbers on the face are big enough for her to see. The voice option is not very loud and a bit hard to understand, which means, for her, it doesn't help her at all. Would recommend

First off this watch is on the CNIB website as best buy Well the instruction printing is so small I couldn't read it and I've got perfect vision. There is no backlight so rvrn if you could see you could read it at night. But why would a sight impaired person want to look at their watch thar talks at night? We'll because the voice function stopped working on day 3.This isn't the sellers fault but the manufacturers and the CNIB that led me to buy it.

I recently purchased this watch as a gift for a blind student, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my choice. This watch is designed with accessibility in mind, making it an excellent tool for anyone who is visually impaired.**Design and Functionality:**The tactile features of the watch are fantastic. The raised markers and distinct textures allow the wearer to easily tell the time by touch. The watch face is not only easy to read but also stylish, combining practicality with a modern look.**Durability:**This watch is built to last. The materials feel sturdy, and the strap is both comfortable and secure. It withstands daily wear and tear, which is essential for a student who is always on the go.**Sound Features:**The audible time function is a standout feature. With a simple press of a button, the watch announces the time clearly. This is especially helpful for quick checks, allowing the student to stay on schedule without needing to rely solely on tactile readings.**Overall Experience:**What truly makes this watch special is how thrilled the student was to receive it. She was so excited to have a timepiece that allows her to use it just like everyone else. The watch has fostered her independence and confidence in managing time, which is crucial for academic success. Plus, it has sparked conversations and connections with peers, as its unique features pique curiosity.In conclusion, I highly recommend this watch for anyone seeking a thoughtful gift for a visually impaired individual. It strikes the perfect balance between functionality and style, making it an ideal choice for a student.

I would prefer if this had a volume setting. My mom also has a hearing impairment, and because the speaker is on the back of the face it smothers the sound a bit. Also the voice is not distinct enough to determine AM or PM without 2 or 3 tries. But it is better than what she's had, with is nothing.

This watch tells the time and date. Works well for someone who is visually impaired. When on the setting in which it announces the time every hour, it depletes the battery quickly.
