Description:Yap9 is a unified mobile client that connects to the Yap freeform speech recognition platform. It contains a threaded text messaging application that allows you to keep in touch with friends, family, and coworkers in realtime: by simply saying something, your words will then be converted into text within seconds, and sent out. Additionally, it unifies the mobile web by allowing you to instantly access web services just by talking. You can search Google, Wikipedia, Yahoo!, YouTube, or interact with Facebook without having to type on your phone's miniature keypad.
