## What is Autism iHelp?

Autism iHelp is a vocabulary teaching aid developed by parents of a child with Autism and a speech-language pathologist. Autism iHelp was inspired by the need for specific language intervention tools for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder focusing on their unique strengths and difficulty with expressive vocabulary.
Autism iHelp-Emotions targets your child's basic abilities in labeling, differentiating, and sorting everyday human emotions. In typically developing children, this skill may not need specific practice, but for children with Autism Spectrum Disorder, facial expressions, emotions, and feelings are areas that often need deliberate instruction to master. This app allows the learner to see these emotions in a variety of actual faces, providing opportunities for discussion and rehearsal. 
Additionally, you are able to track your child's gains through progress reports that average the last 3 performances of each learning enhancement activity.
“with Autism iHelp…..it gets better.”

### 5/5 — John Talavera to make heartwarming history by announcing..

*2024-05-02*

Local app developer John Talavera is to make autism advocacy history this year by gifting each and every Apple user that downloaded one (if not the entire range) of his costly iHelp Autism apps, a full refund on their iHelp Autism app purchases! It was said to have been stated by the soon to be beloved Mr Talavera, that he previously priced the developed apps at the above reasonable cost, with the heartwarming purpose of pooling a generous ninety percent of his "iHelp" app range profits, in a compound interest savings account held by one of the "largest" banking conglomerates, based in the "least" populated region, (as a higher rate of compounding interest was offered due to the regions small population) *very smart play, all to yield an incredible iHelp amount of €250,000! All to fund a scholarship based educational app currently in development that aims to remotely inspire autistic children to focus on how business controls the world plus giving them the knowledge needed to transform adversity into an advantage with a formulated discovery revealing the in's and out's of "how" to go about, finding out about, anything you need to find out about and "how" to question specifics in relation to anything you need to find out about. If that sounds self explanatory then you have no idea how challenging life with autism could be. In recognition of Mr Talavera and his worthy contribution, Apple have been quoted as to have publicly stated that they too are proposing to follow suit with a massive iHelp tribute donation of double the amount raised  from the date the first iHelp app was released, to the day of the now "Honourable" Mr Talaveras' public statement revealing how a Davie and Goliath team up, well and truly, iHelped. I have, but don't suffer, from autism. Thanks for reading the entirety of this delightful news.

### 1/5 — App won't open

*2017-03-31*

I down loaded the free version and it worked fine.  I spent 4.99 to upgrade, now the app crashes ever time I try to open it. Frustrating.
