### 5/5 — This is easily the best AAC app for anyone wanting to

*2016-11-28, version 1.5.79*

This is easily the best AAC app for anyone wanting to bang out lots of communication very efficiently!

ALS has taken my voice, but I'm still able to use my hands fairly well. This app is designed and optimized for conversational efficiency.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2016-02-23, version 1.5.75*

Great for anyone with trouble speaking such as ALS patients.
