Transcription of communications through a device
A method to transcribe communications is provided. The method may include obtaining first communication data during a communication session between a first communication device and a second communication device and transmitting the first communication data to the second communication device by way of a mobile device that is locally coupled with the first communication device. The method may also include receiving, at the first communication device, second communication data from the second communication device through the mobile device and transmitting the second communication data to a remote transcription system. The method may further include receiving, at the first communication device, transcription data from the remote transcription system, the transcription data corresponding to a transcription of the second communication data, the transcription generated by the remote transcription system and presenting, by the first communication device, the transcription of the second communication data.

obtain, directly from the mobile phone over the local wireless network, audio data of a wireless communication session over a cellular network between the mobile phone and a communication device, the audio data originating at the communication device and provided to the mobile phone over the cellular network, the mobile phone managing the wireless communication session with the communication device;
direct, via a secondary network, the audio data to a remote transcription system; and
obtain transcription data originating from the remote transcription system, the transcription data generated by the remote transcription system and corresponding to a transcription of the audio data; and
an electronic display coupled to the one or more processors and configured to present the transcription of the audio data.
10. The device of claim 9 , wherein the local wireless network is a Bluetooth network.
11. The device of claim 9 , wherein the secondary network is an 802.11 protocol type network.
12. The device of claim 11 , wherein the local wireless network is a non-cellular network that is a different network type than the secondary network.
13. The device of claim 9 , wherein the local wireless communication is established between the mobile phone and the device responsive to at least one of the mobile phone and the device automatically detecting a presence of another of the at least one of the mobile phone and the device without user input.
14. The device of claim 9 , wherein the operations further comprise disable communication between the mobile phone and the device while communication between the communication device and the mobile phone is maintained.
15. A mobile phone comprising:
one or more processors;
