AAC speech communicator

The app kept crashing so I'm uninstalling it because it does it so often and it's frustrating for the clients that I work with.

Crashed once I hit a picture/word.

I was looking for an app to help a friend communicate, after she landed in the hospital. Unfortunately, most of the apps (including this one) assume that the person can open their eyes. This app is unusually large, so I have to uninstall it. Thankfully, there is another app called TouchSpeller and it allows anyone to spell words using only one finger, even if they can't see the screen.

I like it and it seem like what we need. I think we would try to ues it for my son. Who's on the spectrum and is 8yrs old. He has some speech but not much. This would work well for him to describe his own feelings. However it seems like it would be difficult for him to understand how to use it. It needs less "categories"(e.g nouns, verbs) and more 3 word fragment sentences using sightwords. It's a bit to advanced for his age group. Also It keeps crashing. You've definitely got something good going though.

Some issues with text to speech: the pronunciation of the word, "category" is like kate-eh-gory. Even someone from down under might have issues with the sound of this. Some incorrectly spelled words translate to text to speech incorrectly, such as "scissors" spelled "scissorses". App needs work if communication is to have accuracy.

I love the range of images this app has. I have tried all the free AAC apps on Android and by far this is the most diverse, no doubt. So as far as communication range is concerned, I think it covers quite a lot. But it is highly disappointing nevertheless because: 1. It keeps crashing 2. It's user interface is not intuitive (which can be difficult for people with significant disabilities). It would have been nice if the categories had been organised more intuitively. Although there is a search button, we can't expect most people with communication difficulties to know to spell. 3. It doesn't allow the user to add personalised images, which would make the communication experience personalised, just like it is for us.

App doesn't have option to not vibrate on press, which bleeds through even though I have haptic feedback globally off on my phone. That's 3 phones in a row that it overrides the option for no haptic feedback, ever. My condition causes spasm with that sensation, instant phone drop. Why no simple "off" option IN THE APP since it seems to be able to override the phone settings. Got a reply that said "there would be an option..." do no idea what to do with that! No in app option, no turning it off, there's no option in phone settings to have not any haptic ever in anything. Wish there was.

For some reason, after i updated the app, it stopped working and crashes on start. So have uninstalled it

It could use some work. Some pictures are missing for certain words, and the app crashes every so often.

There were items in the category folders that make no sense, such as blacksmith's wife in the food folder.

This Augmentative and Alternative Communication App is way too much helpful for speech disabled people. I found it very diversed and with loads of options, helping person to talk with others.

Tried downloading it twice. Crashes as soon as I open it.

It would not let me open it after I downloaded it.

I like it but picture size is very small couldn't understand by younger kids

Worked for about 2-3 min then stops responding

This is so close to perfect... but maybe missing a big piece ? How do we add words? For example proper names of family members?

Very helpfull as speech therapist i recomend it but please add arabic

Thank you so much for this God bless you.

Why does the boy voice sound just like a girl??

Thanks, one of the best I've found. :)

I love this one ok

Nice and creative

Annoying

Cant switch app to spanish and when my spanish clients use the app on their devices with spanish language as a default language setting it operates in frech. Please help/ fix and and other language support.

I am part of a AAC user group at the University of Dundee and this app has generated a lot of interest. A bit difficult on the phone for people who also mobility issues but would be great for tablet. Has a lot of tiles with nearly everything a person would want to say and seems very user friendly. Only problem is most of the group have iPad's,is this app going to be available on apple ?

Has potential but has a long way to go. Needs to support landscape layout and other usability issues. Crashed repeatedly on Xoom.

Super....but pecs also has lil higher level . kids with mild autism can recognise written words...and use them as symbols of communication. ?.pls get us something for those kids Pls update the list by adding more frequently used words...I m special educator and aba therapist

A lot of the vocabulary is miscategorized, although I give them credit for using correct terminology for body parts.

I tried to install this on htc desire and samsung galaxy but no success. It says application stopped when downloading additional file. I need it for my 4 year autistic boy
