Preschool to Teens
Pictello is an app that is useful in so many venues. Make stories with preschoolers about there day, activities, and people they love. Use it for older youngsters to tell stories and read aloud. It is so useful with those non-speaking with voice output. Everything can be personalized. It’s a really inexpensive and highly versatile app. I love it!
Autistic children growing up
I am an autistic woman who was originally nonverbal and forced to speak in different therapies. They would drill me to repeat different phrases but I felt like I was saying nothing because I was just repeating what other people wanted me to say. I use all of the different assistiveware apps in different communication situations. They listened to autistic people and converted our natural dialect and communications into apps that really work for us. For the first time since I was seven years old, I finally found my authentic autistic voice. I am myself again. Thank you autistic community and thank you assistiveware. Pictillo has allowed me to accommodate myself as an adult by letting make my own visual schedule like my teachers used to do for me as a little girl. My anxiety and fixation has reduced so much.
