Earcatch App Download and Installation Instructions:
1. Download the Earcatch app in the App Store or Google Play Store.
2. Install the app.
3. Create an account. In this process you will be asked to choose between the services Audio Description and Subtitles. This can later be changed within the app.
The Earcatch app currently has two different categories: Audio Description and Subtitles.
For the demonstration at Plugfest with Elevation, under Audio Description you will find:
- Audio Description
- Amplified Sound
- Audio Subtitles
Under Subtitles you will find:
- Subtitles
- Closed Captions
- Sign Language
When switching services, your downloads for the prior service will be deleted. Since the files are small, they can easily be re-downloaded at the time of the demonstration.
For security reasons, downloaded files are accessible for 7 days. Please keep that in mind when downloading the files for Plugfest.
In short, we advise the following:
1. Select Audio Description as your preferred service. You can check or change this via Profile.
2. Download the Audio Description, Amplified Sound and Audio Subtitles for Elevation by clicking and downloading these three items in Discover.
3. On 13 January, please bring earphones and follow the instructions given at that time to select a downloaded item and hit Play.
4. To test the Subtitles, Closed Captions and Sign Language, during the demonstration go to Profile and change the service to Subtitles (CC). Then go to Discover and download the Subtitles, Closed Captions or Sign Language. Hit Play to start testing.
We hope you enjoy the demonstration. Should you have any questions beforehand, please contact us at
