## What is IconSpeak AAC?

Some people think in full sentences and just can't say them out loud.
IconSpeak gives them a way to be heard.

IconSpeak is an AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) app for
children and adults with speaking difficulties — autism, apraxia, Down
syndrome, cerebral palsy, stroke, ALS, and temporary loss of speech. Tap
icons to build a sentence, then tap the sentence strip to speak it aloud
in a clear, natural voice.

It was built by a dad for his son. Everything in it exists because a real
family needed it.


HOW IT WORKS

- Tap icons to build a sentence, then tap the strip to speak it aloud
- Or tap a single icon to hear it on its own — no sentence required.
  Good for early learners and quick answers.
- Edit any icon: its label, its image, or what it says out loud
- Browse by category, or search when you know what you want
- Type to Talk for anyone who spells — type a phrase, hear it spoken
- Choice boards for this-or-that questions and structured practice


PRINT WHAT'S ON THE SCREEN

The digital board and the paper board shouldn't be two different systems.

- Print individual icons, or entire choice boards
- Set your own print layout and grid — icons per page and how large
- Size them for a binder, a classroom wall board, or a lanyard
- Send home paper sets that match the app exactly, so a person sees the
  same symbol at school, at home, and on paper
- Print custom photo icons, not just library symbols
- A no-tech backup for a dead battery or a device left in the car


BUILT FOR REAL DAYS

- Works fully offline — no signal needed at school or an appointment
- Cloud sync and backup across your iPhone and iPad
- Multiple voices and multiple languages
- Adjustable grid, colors, and layout so the board fits the person
- No ads, ever. No account required to start.


FREE FOREVER

The core app is free — not a trial, not a countdown. Icon library and
categories, single-tap speech, sentence strip, Type to Talk, choice
boards, printing with custom layouts, one profile, offline, and sync.


ICONSPEAK PRO

For families, classrooms, and clinicians who need the board to match a
specific person.

- Custom icons from your own photos — real faces, real foods, real places
- Custom categories, organized your way
- Multiple user profiles on one device
- Sentence history, so a favorite phrase is one tap away

Pro is $4.99 per month or $49.99 per year.


FOR SLPs AND EDUCATORS

Custom icons and multiple profiles make it practical to run a caseload
from one iPad, and printable boards let you send home a paper set that
mirrors the digital one — consistent symbols across school, home, and
clinic. We'd love to hear from you: wearebubbystudio@gmail.com
