What is a TTY Phone?

TTY stands for Text Telephone (or Teletypewriter for the Deaf). Sometimes called a TDD, or "Telecommunication Device for the Deaf". TTYs are used by many people, not just people who are deaf. A TTY is a device that allows people who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech-impaired use the telephone to communicate by typing messages back and forth to one another instead of talking and listening. A TTY is required at both ends of the conversation in order to communicate.

The Telecommunications Relay Service (TRS) If you don't have a TTY, you can still call a person who is deaf, hard of hearing, or speech-impaired. With the TRS a special operator types what you say so that the person you are calling can read your words on his or her TTY. They can type a response, which the TRS operator will read aloud for you over the phone.
