### 4/5 — Naming app

*2019-04-30*

This app is very useful for naming household items. I like that it offers various cues to assist in naming. I have used this app with several of my kids.

### 2/5 — IName it

*2015-05-02*

Found this App to be painful, clunky and unresponsive to touch. The highlighting and touching of the object to be named was painful to myself let alone to my wife who has early onset dementia.

### 3/5 — Needs more for the price

*2014-07-26*

There are a field of 10 household items in 5 sets for a total of 50 items.  I would like to see some more categories and more photos. Some items are difficult to see with those experiencing visual impairments. It would be beneficial to have zoom capability in the photo field to compensate. 

Natural light and normal light toggles are helpful for spectrum challenged and those using Irlen filters. 

For this price point, I would have expected more from the app given the body of selection. It is commensurate with products you would buy from a specialty company but without many bells and whistles. More feedback would be helpful.

### 4/5 — Love it!

*2013-10-29*

Thanks so much for adding Spanish! It's great that this is now try-lingual. My clients love that the images are so adult appropriate with no cartoons or talking animals!
This is one of my favorite apps!

### 4/5 — SLP

*2012-05-27*

Nice concept. Would appreciate better visual contrasts between target item and backgrounds when the object is selected.  Would also like it if you could tap the picture in the bottom row and have it highlight automatically.  Some of the phonemic cues are a bit awkward.

### 5/5 — IName it

*2012-04-30*

Great app that has applications for use with adults with word-retrieval problems as well as for use with students as well.  Love the multiple cues available.  Good value for the money.

The visuals/images are awesome and the students are very interested in seeing more!

### 5/5 — Excellent!

I am looking forward to using this app with my clients. I love the realistic displays!

### 5/5 — Great!
