4. What
else
PiQ
does
• The
PiQ
app
also
addresses
the
challenge
and
opportunity
of
creaAng
a
new
“voice”
dimension
to
tradiAonal
SMS
• SMS
is
one
of
the
most
used
and
convenient
communicaAon
services
on
mobile
devices
globally
• However,
it
has
some
drawbacks
– it
is
frequently
not
easy
to
convey
the
context
of
a
message
(is
the
sender
being
humorous,
angry
ironic,
very
happy,
etc)
– for
visually
impaired
people,
typing
on
touchscreens
can
be
very
difficult
– the
text
is
limited
in
length
• By
adding
a
“voice”
component
to
tradiAonal
SMS,
PiQ
• adds
a
powerful
new
dimension
to
texAng
• makes
it
easy
for
visually
impaired
users
to
send
text
messages
