Hear your name through AirPods.
Ever missed someone calling your name at the office because your AirPods were in? NameCall can help reduce those moments.

How it works
Three small steps, designed for the moment someone calls your name.
Listen locally
Speech Recognition runs from the menu bar while transcripts stay in memory for matching and QA logs.
Switch AirPods
When a phrase matches, the bundled helper switches connected AirPods into Transparency mode.
Local-first by design.
NameCall asks only for the permissions it needs: Microphone, Speech Recognition, and Bluetooth. It does not save transcripts.
This is still an early version.
AirPods mode switching depends on private Bluetooth behavior. It works locally today, but macOS updates can change the path.
AirPods required
Private Bluetooth API
May break on macOS updates
Release notes
The first public DMG focuses on menu bar detection, multiple wake phrases, direct AirPods mode controls, and a global shortcut.
