Wish it Was Compatible on More Devices
Grid is my favorite AAC app, it has been great with motor planning and it fits my needs, the only complaint is that it can’t be accessed on my phone or apple watch in a situation where my AAC device is unavailable. If there were to be an update to make it compatible on iPhone and apple watch for emergencies that would be amazing and my review would go up a star for sure.

Love this app !!
It’s about time I gave my review and honest opinion.
I’ve have had this app for nearly 4 years come this September, I can honestly say I’m super glad I got introduced to aac and this app.
I was give a choice of apps to choose from and I chose this app because it was the less overwhelming one out of the lot! There’s lots of styles of grid sets and of course naturally I had to look at them all!
I’m even having a go at making my own, there’s lots of community support through Facebook and YouTube videos of how to edit the grids to make them more personal.
I’ve always had speech issues as a child but was never introduced to aac not sure if it was because I never went to a SEND school or my teachers just had one way of teaching “you need to say it ( the name of the item I wanted) if you want it” kind of attitude. (Yes I actually got told that when I was in primary school)
I was recently told I have a speech disorder called dysarthria, it all finally made sense to why I really struggle with ‘mouth words’, I’m super grateful for smartbox as I no longer struggle to get the muscles in my mouth to cooperate with each other or to try and get enough air inside my lungs to get the sounds out loud enough.
In my opinion this app is worth way more than 5 stars

Wonderful app and great support
I have early ALS, and it has impacted my speaking. I started voice banking too late, and had been getting increasingly frustrated at being unable to easily continue both my coaching work and general conversation.
Grid for iPad is giving me real hope that I can stay engaged in both areas.
I’m pretty tech savvy, but it did take a bit of time and some swearing to understand just how clever the grid idea they’ve created is. It allows easy creation and modification of sentences, with storage and easy retrieval of what you’ve said before, or of simply useful phrases and sentences they’ve collected.
In addition, I love that I can create my own categories of sentences, so I am now building the set of key questions I ask people when I’m coaching in the job club I set up 4 yrs ago. It’s given me hope I won’t have to stop.
And having put a lot of time into creating my own grids and words, I was relieved today to set up backup onto Dropbox.
Finally, I cannot speak highly enough of the support team. I’ve pinged in questions every day since installing last weekend, and they’ve replied promptly and with really well explained answers. Fantastic.
Feeling much more hopeful. Thank you.
