National Relay Service – Captioned Relay
| Description | The National Relay Service (NRS) is for any Australian who is deaf, hearing impaired or speech impaired who wants to make phone calls. This app gives you access to captioned relay calls (if you can speak but can’t hear clearly). In this type of call, a relay officer will caption the speech of the person you are calling, so you can read what they are saying, while you speak normally on the phone. |
