About this app

[Overview] "OMOTENASHI GUIDE" is a service that convertsJapanese announcements into an understandable form and delivers for its users regardless of age, nationality, or disability. When the app picks up a Japanese announcement compatible with "OMOTENASHI GUIDE", it converts the announcement into text for users that are hard of hearing. For foreign users that don't understand Japanese, the announcement is translated into an appropriate foreign language and is displayed in text format. [User Instructions] Step 1: When an announcement is playing and you want to know what it says... Open the app where there is an "OMOTENASHI GUIDE" mark! Step 2: Just press the center button! [Notes on Use] The smartphone's microphone is used when receiving announcements. If permission to use the microphone is off, it may not be possible to convert the announcement correctly. A settings prompt will appear the first time you launch the app, but when reconfiguring the settings, please confirm the following. ・Microphone Settings->Privacy->Microphone->OMOTENASHI->On ・Location Services Settings->Privacy->Location Services->OMOTENASHI->Always ・Bluetooth Settings->Bluetooth->On
