Question Seeking ideas for voice amplifier for Parkinson's patient

[Gene/Mpls]

Use cell phone's amp/speaker with lapel style Bluetooth Mike to amplify voice for Parkinson's damaged vocal cords. Perhaps an app? Thank you, Gene

Welcome to Android Central! That would potentially be a pretty big drain on the phone's battery, assuming the patient would need it on all the time. How about a dedicated personal amplifier that clips onto a belt, like this one? https://www.amazon.com/WinBridge-Bluetooth-Amplifier-Microphone-WB002/dp/B0BJYSBK9W

That being said, I did find this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=wimlog.com.myandroidtest4&hl=en_US&gl=US. Worth a try, but it doesn't get the best reviews.

Welcome to AC!
Which phone are you using?

Thank you gentlemen. I have a couple of the small cheap amps, and they are a lot of trouble but usable in certain spaces. I reasoned the phone or phones are always with us and would work in other places when the larger Amp is not with us. I was trained in electronics and early computers and programing in 1965-6 [yes, I am old and some days my brain works better than others] and I am a tinkering fool who has never learned anything about cell phones. We are out of Mn. for Jan-Feb ln Tx and the Fla. keys, so I will have time to learn. Sweetie has a Samsung and I have a discarded Pixel 5. I am also pursuing other avenues, of course. Thanks again Gene
