Let us know what you think of the Talking Laundry 2.0 Module in the comments below and sign up for updates on our website... 👉 Sign up for product updates and beta test opportunities: https://firstbuild.com/products/talking-laundry-2-0/ 👉 Co-create with Bobby: https://firstbuild.com/ideation/talking-laundry-2-0/ 👉 Comment below! Beeps, bells, and musical notes alert you to many of the selections or timers you set with your appliances. But what if those appliances used words, instead? Imagine hearing your washer speaking "Delicates," "Quick Wash" and more as you choose your selection—or a loved one reminding you to "Change the wash around!" at the end of the cycle. We're refreshing Talking Laundry—a module that got its start at FirstBuild four years ago from a 14-year-old programmer and members of the visually impaired community.
