This didn't do what I thought it would do. I wanted a simple tool for use with video modeling with special needs students. This is NOT the app. ### 5/5 — Crashing!...now fixed *2012-11-14, version 3.51* This app has tremendous potential to be amazing. Since the latest update, it crashes when you try to import an emailed story. please fix this!!! The app is now fixed and worth every penny!!! ### 1/5 — SLP P *2012-10-19, version 3.22* Crashing every time on my iPad 2. ### 4/5 — Great app for quickly making videos for video modeling *2012-05-09, version 3.21* I first heard about this app from an iPad workshop and was really excited to try it for video modeling. I used it this morning to make a video for a student and it took me less than hour to record, choose, edit, narrate, and sequence the video clips on my iPad. When I initially tried to watch the 2 min video after I added it to the story, the app crashed. I found it was helpful to cut the long video into short 18 second clips. That took care of the crashing problem and allowed me to segment the task into small steps for my student to learn the routine or skill. Great app! ### 1/5 — Crashing..... *2012-04-21, version 3.21* Help... ### 5/5 — Eases anxiety *2012-02-24, version 3.2* Great simple to use app with our ASD child. Showing him picture stories cuts down on the anxiety level of going places with him. If he sees a picture, he knows to anticipate the event. No more meltdowns! ### 4/5 — Loves this app, but keeps crashing *2012-01-04, version 3.2* This is a fabulous app that is extremely useful in my work as a speech-language therapist. However, I have been having problems with it crashing anytime I use it with the video feature. Please help! ### 1/5 — Crashed on me *2011-07-12, version 3.12* When I was going to watch my video and then the screen went black ### 5/5 — Great for teaching social skills *2011-06-14, version 3.12* I am an SLP who uses My Pictures Talk to help my students with autism learn appropriate social skills. My students love watching themselves on video and the app serves as an incentive for good behaviors. I even create videos to show unexpected behaviors so that they can see the difference. It is very easy to customize and sometimes I will even have my students help me customize it. ### 5/5 — Superb therapy tool *2011-05-14, version 3.1* As a private practice slp, I have found endless uses for this app. I use videos for commenting and sequencing. I have tons of pics of rooms and household items for teaching vocab. I made folders for individual kids so the actions, attributes, objects and people importants for them are all in one place for practice from a speech a/o language perspective. Great, versatile, highly recommended! ## Frequently asked questions about My Pictures Talk ### What is My Pictures Talk used for?
