What's New in Locabulary Lite

2.0

August 29, 2011

We are excited to release Locabulary Lite version 2.0! There are a lot of new features that will allow you to be more efficient and productive. If you've already created a large library of phrases, Locabulary Lite will prepare them for our new remote backup server. With 2.0, you can restore your phrases when you change iPhones or copy them to a second iPhone or iPad! Expanded Category and Phrase Settings - Categories and phrases have been expanded to allow you to backup and save to the Locabulary server. You can also share categories with the Locabulary community, geo-tag Categories using Location Presets, and provides an upgrade path to future category/phrase images, audio file playback and new TTS voices. Locabulary will convert your old categories and phrases to the new format automatically. Location Presets - allows you to create presets for points of interest that can then be linked to a category or bank of phrases. For instance, create a "Home" location preset and link phrase categories that you use at home... create a "Work" location preset and link those phrase categories that you use at work. Business Name Locations - Use this feature for phrases that are used at multiple business locations of the same name, or "chains", like restaurants, grocery stores, etc. Remote File Storage and Sharing - allows you to backup and save all your phrase categories to a remote Locabulary server. You can either make them private which prevents others from seeing or downloading them, or make them public and share with the Locabulary community. Browse Public Phrases and download a menu from your favorite restaurant! Abbreviations - are just like abbreviations that you use in text messaging only these abbreviations are spoken in plain text. For instance, create a "cul" abbreviation with "See you later" and wherever "cul" is typed on the keyboard, "See you later" is spoken. Geo-Tagged Phrase Categories - Create Location Presets and use them in your Category Settings to pull up phrases that you use by location. Your Geo-tagged phrases in range will appear on the Nearby Tab, keeping your phrase lists shorter and easier to quickly access! Community - get involved in the Locabulary community. Share tips, tricks and advice with Twitter, Facebook or the Locabulary Community Support Site! Check out http://locabulary.com/instructions.html and learn how to use the new features!

User reviews

Always freezes

Just like the other reviews mine froze all the time. I tried it on my iPhone 6s and no luck. Not sure how they expect anyone to pay for pro when the free version doesn't even work properly.

Keeps freezing

Every few time using app freezes and need delete app and install again. Not able afford pro version and hate to save for it if this keeps messing up. Not taking chances pro version do same thing

Crashes

Does not work. Keeps crashing.

Great find

I am a retail manager and have a few customers who cannot talk. This app allows me to create my own categories to be specific to my store so I can help them faster and give them a great customer experience too.

I am very excited about this app, but I have not used it with my customers yet and will be back after they let me know how they like it.

Great app

This app is great as a start up! Many restaurants and phrases need to be added, but it's a great new app. It's crashes on me once or twice an the female voice doesn't very well, but otherwise, it's fantastic.

My mom works special Ed in high school, and this would work very well for people with autism. Would also work well for people who cannot speak for other reasons.

I can't wait for a full version, which I'm sure is being worked on. At the moment, I've been very immature with it, playing with it, but it is also a very valuable to people with different needs.
