amazing!

this is very very helpful and simple to use.
i like how its versatile. you can add custom pictures and voice recordings. and they have example photos for you so you dont have to go and find a picture for each word. my brother can use it easily. the app freezes rarely but if it does its no problem to just close and open again.

I love this app

This app has been a life changer my uncle who is nonverbal and has Down syndrome uses this every day

Share feature gone

Please fix the share feature that is no longer an option in the app! It does not work and makes it impossible to share boards between family members devices.

Good app, but tedious

So, ChatterBoards was my first aac app. While I found it useful, I found it tedious to put together a page. I also didn’t really care for the robotic voices, so I decided that it wasn’t for me. Now, I’m not saying it’s a bad app. Just not for me. I will eventually come back to ChatterBoards once I have another device.

I do recommend ChatterBoards for those that can’t afford something like Proloquo2go, and have to do things alone, as I did.

This app is amazing for severe ME/CFS!

I have a medical condition that causes me to sometimes lose most of my ability to speak and move, and during these health episodes I have a lot of needs that most caregivers wouldn’t understand without being taught… being mostly paralyzed and unable to talk is no fun, and so having this happen again was my biggest fear, until I found this app. I was so happy to find that is super easy to use with lots of different ways to customize it, and I was able to make several various boards which are all very intuitively simple. It is giving me a huge sense of relief to have this tool in case I ever lose my ability to speak again! My only complaint is that when choosing the icon picture you have to scroll through literally hundreds- they could make it easier to find the clip art you’re looking for with a search function, but I’m still glad this app is free and so great in many ways.

simple and customizable

Glad I found this app and now kid friendly and easy to use! Also fully customizable thanks

I love this

This Prefect for my nonverbal autistic son because it allows him to say want he wants it is amazing because he uses it at school and every day it is perfect for children or adults who are nonverbal

No voice in latest iOS version

Amazing app!

This app is incredibly easy for even my lowest nonverbal students. We change boards every month to match our target words for our unit. I love how easy it is to add new buttons. Also so cool that I can share boards via airdrop! I can make boards on my iPad and share with student iPads. Also love that I can have it on my phone for moments when I don’t have student iPads with me. They can tell me what they need anywhere. Even better that it’s free! But I would pay for sure. Thank you, Paul for designing this easy to use app so our kiddos have a voice!

this app is amazing just one thing.

so i just got this app today, its already been so helpful for me. but whenever i try to use the sounds it doesn’t work. please let me know how to fix this

Amazing BUT…

Amazing for a free AAC! Yet mines will not allow me to create folders, no option comes up, it just automatically creates a tile. How can I fix this?

Wonderful! Need option for “ed” “ing” and “s/es”

I use this all the time with my functional core kids in high school. We have a lot of non verbal kids and this is amazing. However I am noticing there isn’t a way to make already existing buttons such as “want” plural. I shouldn’t need to create a whole additional button for the word “wants” and there are a ton of words that can also have an s added to them. Is there a way you could add a button that attaches “s” and “es” to already existing words for plural things along with “ing” and “ed” buttons that will attach to already existing words?

As an SLP it’s fantastic

This app is fantastic. As an SLP, people do not realize how important access to technology and communication is. This app hits so many check points for me. Excellent robust communication, user friendly, and it’s free! I recommend chatterboards to all my patients’s families. The unofficial SLP motto is “everyone deserves a voice” and chatterboards truly makes this possible.

Stopped working

It stopped making sound.

ChatterBoards AAC

Can you make a copy of ChatterBoards AAC for Android Devices please? I am just wondering?

Good app,some flaws

I like this app,I am a teen with selective mutism and constantly struggle to speak in certain situations,this app is super helpful and makes it super easy to communicate. However is does crash on me and deletes some of my boards that I was working on. Other then that I don’t see much wrong with it,the voices are good and clear,the quality is great,and I hope this app gets better

Volume

The volume won’t go up and I tried turning it up and recording my own voice and how do you edit the keyboard so you can use your voice

Good but. Glitch?

I love it so much as a semi verbal person but it randomly stopped making sound :( and idk why, the volume is up

Update makes the app useless

I loved this app, but the update makes the voice so quiet. Like, no one can hear it. Please fix it I miss using this app
