Thanks!

Thank you so very much for providing this free,(presently), app! I am using it for a student who is awaiting an AAC evaluation. I do not have access to other apps as my employer provides very little help in this area. You are giving a voice to a very smart little person! A million thanks is not enough!

Not speaking labels

I’m a Behavior Analyst and have loved having this app to use for basic communication with my clients before they have accessed their own AAC devices. Unfortunately it suddenly stopped speaking the button labels out loud as they are pressed and will now only speak when we press the speak button to read the full sentence strip, and this is highly inconvenient for young learners with low effort response tolerance.

Great basic boardmaker!

I was looking for something more portable than my daughter’s communication cards and this works great!

Share? Bigger button options?

Hi! I am loving the app. But how do I share buttons and boards to collaborate use with therapists using a different device? Also is there a way to make the buttons bigger for easier differentiation when a younger kid is learning and using the app? Also please keep this free. It’s a godsend to have this app and all of its features without the price tag

Best and Easiest AAC app out there!

I am a CCC-SLP and I love this AAC app. It is easy to use/edit, the icons look friendly, and easy to share a created communication board with others or between devices. I tell everyone looking for AAC options about Twinkl Symbols.
