CoughDrop is a simple, modern AAC communication and support tool that empowers individuals and the teams around them. It is a full-featured communication app built for individuals with autism, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, Angelman syndrome, Rett syndrome, or other complex communication needs. CoughDrop is flexible and configurable enough to accommodate the access and comprehension needs of many communicators. CoughDrop users can install this app to access CoughDrop's communication and reporting features on their mobile device. The app includes starter boards for different levels of communication, and boards with large or small buttons can be personalized using the rich symbol set, user-provided images or camera photos, user-recorded audio, speech synthesis, etc. CoughDrop runs on multiple devices, so you can log in on your tablet, phone and computer and have access to the same communication tools and interface. In addition, users can be linked so parents, therapists and supervisors can access a communicator's boards from their own devices to better facilitate modeling, and to make it easier to modify boards without taking away the communicator's device. The built-in reporting and messaging tools also help the support team have a consistent strategy and know what's working across locations and times.
Fix this app
This is the most glitchy and unusable app I’ve ever had. I was trying to make a board for therapy and if I even briefly type a bit too fast it crashes and then I have to do everything all over again. I would not recommend this app until they fix it.
Confusing
The system is very frustrating to figure out to use with my client. It doesn’t upload boards, allow my student to stay on a page without accessing the edit page, and I don’t get questions answered.
Trial Run
Doing a trial run. We’ve been doing this not even 5 hours and the app has frozen multiple times. Won’t save. Multiple errors. No way this is worth $250!
Too fast
The speech is way to fast, even to the point that it is hard to know what it has said. That being said , the app itself is easy to use. This won’t be the app that I will be using for my son due to the fast speech and the inability to model speech.
Love this app
We needed an AAC program that would work on the kindle fire. We love coughdrop and use it on iPhone, android phone, and kindle fire. This program provides a free two month trial but we upgraded early to get access to child voices 🥰
Too Fast & No Enunciation
The app is promising; however, I wish there was a way to slow down the speech. It is said so fast it is not adequate for modeling or usage to young nonverbal children.
Great communication app!
The model of having a free communication app with subscriptions for a user rather than per device is the best! I am an elementary special education teacher for students with autism. I have been using this app with my classroom this year with 7 students who have limited or no verbal communication. I am thrilled with having this tool to use and love how easily I can make updates for my students on my device (computer, phone, or iPad) and it updates on their device. My favorite part is that all of our support staff and myself can have the app on our own devices so we can model, practice, and find words without needing to take the device from the student. The developers have been very helpful when I need help. I have been recommending it to all of our staff!
