Best speech app I’ve EVER used!

Believe my when I say have tried EVERY free or some cheap apps and there was always something in them that just sucked a bit, like it wasn’t quite right. This app is PERFECT, and I get to customise it to be all pink, nyeheheheh. So my opinion? Bite the bullet, spend the money, save yourself the hassle. Perfect for users who prefer a text based layout

Best text based AAC for external keyboard

I’ve been using proloquo4text for several years. I’ve tried many other text based AAC apps and proloquo4text still easily beats them out. I appreciate how adaptable the colors and text are, and the auto spacing helps me type faster. The predictions are reliable.

I appreciate that you can set phrases to be spoken automatically, put in the text box, or both depending on how long you hold on them.

There’s zero lag between my external keyboard and the text in the app, which sounds small but you’d be surprised how hard it is to find an app that works so smoothly!

If I had any critique it would be that I’d love to be able to rearrange the buttons on the Quick Talk menu the same way I can on the Phrases menu. I tend to sort my Quick Talk phrases based on their use/meaning so it can be a bit frustrating to have to redo the whole menu when I could just sort them.

This is still such a small complaint about a great program. I highly recommend it as a reliable text based AAC app.

Very Functional!

This AAC app is wonderful for my non-verbal son! There are so many ways to personalize it for him! And so handy to use on iPhone or iPad mini! No need to carry around a cumbersome device. Also love that I can choose a voice that is most suited to what his actual voice tone sounds like.

no emotion

The voices have no emotion in them, and there’s no way to inflict emotion such as sarcasm. The voices sound lifeless and they don’t have any expression in them, there’s no emotion or any way to inflict any either.

App Review

This app is helpful, but I am disappointed with the voice quality. It sounds very robotic and less human. The voice does not show much emotional expression like happiness, sadness, anger, or excitement. I hope future updates improve the voice to make it sound more natural and expressive.
