IconSpeak AAC

IconSpeak now feels like a native app on both iPhone and iPad, and a lot of small frustrations are gone. Everything opens the way it should. Every panel in the app is now a real iOS sheet instead of a drawn-on card. Swipe down to dismiss, and the back gesture works everywhere — including on a choice board you have part-built, which now asks before it throws anything away. Choice boards. Opening a board fills the screen, so nobody taps a different board by accident halfway through saying something. Print, Edit and Delete have moved into a ••• menu, so Delete is no longer a single tap away from the board you use all day. Type to Talk. The Clear button is no longer sitting next to Play — it's a small × on the message box, where clearing belongs. The return key now speaks your sentence. History stops filling up with repeats: saying the same thing again moves it back to the top instead of adding another copy, so the phrases you actually reuse stay reachable. Saved sentences keep Play in the open, with Edit and Delete behind a ••• menu. iPad. Side-by-side layouts on larger screens: your boards list beside the open board, your settings list beside the section you're reading. Navigation moves to a rail down the side, which gives the board back the space a bottom bar was using. Everything follows the window, so Split View and rotation work properly. Two fixes worth calling out. The app no longer signs you out when it can't reach the internet at launch — only an expired session does that now. And the parental gate remembers being switched off, instead of coming back every time the app reopens. Setting up a board is easier. Adding a category now opens a simple sheet from either the + button or the category strip, and the new category scrolls into view instead of hiding off the edge. Pro users can delete their own custom categories in Edit mode — the built-in ones stay put. An empty category now tells you it's empty and offers to add an icon, rather than showing a blank board. Photos come from your photos. Setting a profile picture or making an icon from a photo now offers Take Photo or Choose from Library, instead of opening the Files browser. Smaller things that got in the way. Image and label size are now buttons instead of sliders, so adjusting them no longer swipes you back to the previous screen, and they're far easier to hit. The top bar stays put when you scroll, so Back and the buttons are always there. The keyboard no longer covers the box you're typing in. Also: real iOS switches and menus throughout, a quieter launch screen, and a single consistent shape and motion language across the app.
