1. A system, comprising:
a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
receiving a user input from a second accessory associated with a second computing device, wherein the user input comprises a message delivered within an operation of an application program that is executing on the second computing device and a first computing device, and wherein the first computing device and the second computing device are in communication over a network;
generating a translation of the user input; and
providing the translation for output by a first accessory associated with the first computing device.
