Made a pivot into a transcription app for students

We have made a pivot of our app.

We are now going to making the Focus on Listening app into a transcription app for two types of students: those with difficulties following what the teacher is saying during lectures and those who have a harder time taking proper notes in the classroom.

Besides having previously experienced these troubles ourselves, we have conducted interviews with many students that seemed to point us in this direction.

A good example of this could be a foreign student at an American university. If English is not ones native language, it could be difficult to catch 100% of what is being said during the lecture.

By using our app these students can follow and focus their energy real-time on what is being said and thereby be more active in the classroom: this can be especially important for those classes that are partially graded by class participation. Besides, they will have more detailed notes when studying for the exams.

Our app also includes features that enable you to import PowerPoint slides handed out by the teacher or pictures taken of the class board. You will be able to both edit and share these – and many more functions are to come in the future.
