Sprint is launching a new software for those who have a difficult time hearing. The free service called WebCapTel on the Go allows users of the service to read captions on Windows Mobile 6 browsers, helping an estimated 30 million Americans with hearing loss.

According to Just Another Mobile Phone Blog, With Sprint WebCapTel On the Go, users can make calls using two phones — reading captions on a wireless phone and listening and speaking on a second phone. Prior to making a call, the user would log onto www.sprintcaptel.com on one mobile device to read text captions of what the other party is saying. For more information on Sprint’s wireless devices and select plans, go to the Sprint Relay Store at www.sprintrelaystore.com.

The captions are real-time based. According to Sprint, the service works as following:

Making a call

After logging into www.sprintcaptel.com, you will be at the “Place Call” screen. It will ask for two phone numbers: 1)”My Telephone Number” for the telephone you will be listening on and speaking through, and 2)”Number to Dial” for the person you are calling.

Receiving a call

After logging into www.sprintcaptel.com, you will be at the “Place Call” screen. Click on the “Incoming calls “tab. Input the phone number of the telephone you will receive calls on.
