## What is MCS Pro?

Text To Speech with Photo Assist

This app was designed to assist those who have difficulty typing into a text to speech program. The user would just simply select a photo from the left column and a clear voice would then read your phrase aloud. You can download your own photos, and create your own phrases, or choose from the many photos and phrases pre-installed for you. You can sort the phrases in the order that you feel better fits your needs. 

Let's suppose you wanted to let your caregiver know that you needed to take your pain medication. You would just simply select the photo of the prescription bottle and the phrase would be read to those intended to hear. No longer do you have to be frustrated with your inability to speak your thoughts, just simply click a photo and help is on the way. 

Young children, adults, those with disabilities, and visual impairment will benefit the most from this application. Start improving the quality of life of your loved ones now!
