### 4/5 — Rough around the edges but a good app with a great concept.

*2025-03-03*

Good app. Amazing concept, I’ve been looking for an AAC keyboard for a while. I do wish I could just buy the app instead of a subscription, but as AAC apps go the subscription is very cheap.
Editing the boards is fairly buggy, and editing from a separate device which happens to be an android didn’t work for.
I’m not usually a fan of AI but the board generation comes in handy. App feels very modern and a lot less medical aesthetically than a lot of AAC apps.
I get the feeling this app is still early in development, so I trust the devs will smooth over the issues.
If you’re reading this, I hope you have a good day. :)
