Good start
I enjoy using this app for a variety of purposes because of the detail in the photographs, and often target inferencing or prediction besides conversation (collecting my own data outside the app). One suggestion I have for this app is to include more multicultural people in the pictures. My students are not all one race, but the majority of the pictures I have seen lately depict Caucasian people only. If that was updated, I would consider giving 5 stars.

There are aspects of this app that I like very much, however I think the difference between the 3 answers should be less subtle or there should be an easier level to choose between 2 possible answers that are more distinct. My students are easily frustrated and discouraged by making so many errors and don't understand why the answer was "wrong". Better to have more concrete differences and the slp can explain more easily why one answer was better than another.

I use this in speech language therapy with great success. Features include sharing, recording options, content and level options and an archive to demonstrate growth. My students love it.
United StatesLove it!
I love this app! It's amazing- getting to hear my most severely autistic clients play back their voices in a connected conversation. GREAT App!
United StatesMobile Education is awesome!!!
Conversation Builder is by far on of the best apps out there for child who have trouble with social skills. It helps them to figure out how to talk to other children and that goes a long way to helping them overcome social anxiety. This is great for children who have mild Autism or Asperger's.
United StatesMust have
Wow! Beautiful image scenes that promote conversation in a wide variety of settings. Voice recording option and ability to have conversation with another user. Another amazing app by mobile education store!
United StatesLimited Starter
I used this with students with significant needs. It was easy to use. It is a bit limited for a $20 app. Leaves the kids wanting more. Would be nice if it had a little more to it.
