Linggo makes communication accessible for people who have difficulty speaking. Linggo is an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) platform that comprises 2 applications, Linggo Learner and Linggo Coach. Designed with a behaviour analytic perspective and created in collaboration with Speech-Language Pathologists, Board Certified Behavior Analysts, Linggo incorporates evidence-based strategies to support the development of language, functional communication, speech and literacy skills (sight reading), while monitoring progress using data driven technology. The Linggo Learner app is intended for individuals who have difficulty or are unable to speak. The Linggo Coach app is intended for clinicians, care partners and parents who wish to monitor progress. Intuitive Interface Word finding is made easier when words appear based on personal context, relevance and grammatical order. Linggo Library With a robust library of over 4000 words with grammatical markers, users can create and add meaningful vocabulary to help the individual build their language skills. All images are licensed from TobiiDynavox. Language Trees (Communicator) Teach sentence structures through Language Trees. Whether you're just beginning with nouns or teaching subject-verb-object combinations, Linggo can be customized to grow with the Learner's language profile. Free Form Generative novel phrases and sentences in the moment and as needed. Use Linggo’s library or photos/images from your own device to spontaneously generate novel words, phrases and sentences. Quick Chat Functional communication is made easier with Quickchat. Phrases such as “I need the washroom.” “My way, please” and “Help me” can be expressed easily through a single tap. Transition to Text Linggo offers the Transition To Text feature which encourages the Learner to learn sight words rather than relying solely on pictures and symbols to communicate. When Transition To Text is enabled, the picture associated with the text fades or reduces in size over time, eventually disappearing to display the text (sight word) only. Transition to Speak Linggo offers the Transition to Speak feature which uses a time delay (1 to 10 seconds) to encourage the Learner to use their voice. When this feature is enabled, the word remains silent when selected - giving the Learner the opportunity to practice their speech. Coaches and Progress Reports The support and feedback of Coaches are critical and mandatory components for the success of AAC intervention - which is why we included Coaches as active users too. Coaches collect data on Learner’s communication, which is then graphed across progress reports to help make evidence informed decisions. As an authorized BACB ACE provider, Linggo offers training/education to clinicians, parents and anyone interested in learning more. ** Learner accounts can be accessed through iPads/iPhones that allow for the latest iOS updates. Linggo Coach accounts can be accessed on any iOS mobile device. ## Key features - Intuitive interface with context-aware word suggestions - Extensive library of over 4000 words and images - Customizable Language Trees for sentence structure development - Generative phrase and sentence creation - Quick Chat for functional communication - Transition to Text for sight word learning - Transition to Speak to encourage vocalization ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **Subscriptions** | Subscription | Price | Period | | --- | --- | --- | | Pro Plan (Monthly) | $7.99 | per month | | Pro Plan (Annually) | $79.99 | per year | | Linggo Pro | $154.99 | per year | **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Buyout | $249.99 | one-time | ## Recent user reviews (9 of 9) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/linggo-learner/id1502143444/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Not a free app *2024-07-13, version 1.3.30* $7.99 month ### 5/5 — Best app for communication *2023-06-01, version 1.3.12* I have been using Linggo for a while and gotten a chance to explore many of its features. I am truly amazed by this application’s capabilities and the impact it can have on individuals with impaired speech. ### 4/5 — Needs some improvements *2023-05-24, version 1.3.12* I love this app. It’s design and user friendly interface makes it my go to AAC app. However the app runs into frequent bugs where the app freezes and it won’t let you edit anything without logging out and logging back in. This happens very often and it’s really annoying. ### 5/5 — Fantastic new AAC app. *2023-05-19, version 1.3.12* Linggo has changed the game in AAC. It’s user-friendly, for both professionals teaching it and learners learning to communicate. We have had at least 6 kids in the last year or so use this app and it is typically my first choice when looking at a high-tech option. We usually show them this app and some other common ones to figure out which they like best, and every time, they choose Linggo. This design makes it easier for the learner to communicate as all of their typical wants/needs/messages pop up in the associated folders instead of having to memorize their location. It also has many options on how to communicate something: quick chat, language free and free form. To get it set up and learn how to operate the different functions, the Linggo team was extremely helpful and very responsive whenever we have questions. Highly recommend you give this app a try, it is so simple and backed by peer reviewed articles. ### 5/5 — Awesome Individualized AAC platform *2023-02-22, version 1.3.8* Linggo Learner app let’s me build communication with my learner at his pace while also allowing me to track all the progress as the coach. It’s easy to set up and use and provides my learners with confidence in getting their needs met! Well done! ### 5/5 — Finally! An SGD made FOR autistic users! *2022-05-18, version 1.2.3* I have worked with a variety of low and high tech AAC platforms with my autistic clients over the past 10+ years. This is the first high tech platform that I feel truly caters to the specific needs of autistic learners. The symbol fading features and time delay are two functions I’ve never seen before and are absolute game changers for promoting literacy and providing opportunities to increase vocal speech production. The Coach app. streamlines data collection and guides data based decisions. Bravo Linggo! I’m literally telling EVERYONE about this app. ### 5/5 — Fantastic application *2022-04-14* As a BCBA I am using this application to help teach functional communication to some of my learners. The application is fantastic! In its design they have applied research which is incredible. I can’t wait to see what my learners can achieve with this. Thanks to Ling and Jane for offering our clinic training on the app! ### 5/5 — Yields incredible results. *2021-02-25, version 1.0.3* I am a behaviour therapist who has been using Linggo for approximately a year now. My client started with a low-tech version and has now transitioned to the high-tech version. Not only have we seen a huge reduction in challenging behaviour due to my client now having a functional way to communicate, we have also observed an increase in spontaneous utterances that were not taught directly. We have had such success with Linggo that I am now recommending it to another one of my clients who is ready to get started with an AAC. Keep it up team Linggo, you are doing incredible things! ### 5/5 — Game changer *2021-01-24, version 1.0.2* Linggo has been a game changer for my family. We are so happy that we chose this AAC over the many others available. My lovely autistic toddler uses the app very naturally to communicate. She has learned to value her AAC voice and proudly carries her AAC with her everywhere she goes. We are so proud of how far she has come and looking forward to seeing how far she continues to grow with Linggo. Thank you Linggo! ## Frequently asked questions about Linggo Learner ### What is Linggo Learner's learning methodology?
