Best Free AAC App You'll Find Anywhere!

This app comes with preloaded pictures, boards and sayings that are fairly generic and not PCS, however you can edit, link, record, and it's completely customizable. You can put a picture you take with your camera as a button, and record your voice to say what you want when it's pushed, and link that button to a separate page such as "I want" > "movies"> "Tangled." My son prefers this app over TouchChat currently because the borders are wider between buttons which makes them easier to see. Play with this first before you decide on paying for TouchChat, Alexicomm or LAMP! I've done 3 out of 4 and SoundingBoard is still top pick.

Can't save anything

This app is supposed to allow you to create your own boards, but they never save. Even edits to the existing boards don't ever save. Not sure if this is an iOS 10 issue or something but the app is fairly useless without this feature. Shame, was recommended by our speech pathologist.

Not compatible for IPhone 6s Plus

Love this app but I can't record over the informative icons because it's not compatible with IPhone 6s Plus or the IPad Air

Thank you

Thank you for making this app! So helpful for my autistic 3 year old!

Crashed over two weeks ago, still crashing

Try to purchase a new board and from that point on CRASHES, very disappointed since this was my son's easiest way to communicate. I have repeatedly deleted and reinstalled and continues to crash all because I foolishly wanted to add a new board.

Crashes

I did in app purchase now it won't stay open.

Not a comprehensive communication device

Icons are not consistent with Boardmaker or SymbolStix icons. I cannot see any of my students using this as a communication tool. It is ok as a free app but I would never pay for it.

Please fix

It crashe's everytime I go into the app

good but...

In the past in this app, I couldn't make my own boards, that is, I could make them but they were never saved and didn't show up above the preloaded boards where they are supposed to be. With this latest update, I can now make user created boards which show up! BUT the board I created has only one button that shows up--the first one I made. The other three buttons don't show up. I like that when I use other scripts on my iphone they show up on the board. eg. Mandarin Chinese and Cyrilic. I got it to make my own boards in languages other than English! ALSO I cannot record my voice over your preloaded boards. I record and it doesn't save. I need to change the language to be able to use this app. Please fix it! I love this app… if only it would work.

I'm an idiot.

I read the directions and have been able to make pages. Very nice for a free app! Thanks AbleNet!
