To use Purple VRI, you need a Purple VRI account. VRI services require payment for use. To sign up for an account, contact Purple at [email protected]. Features: - Easy-to-use and convenient; make Purple VRI calls virtually anywhere, anyplace, anytime on a WiFi or cellular connection. - Skilled interpreters, clear audio and high-quality video make it like the interpreter is in the same room with you! - Purple VRI is perfect for work, schools, meetings, doctor’s appointments, on-the-go and much, much more! - Last minute requests made easy – on-demand technology allows you to access services at any time, 24/7, 365 days per year.
