## What is SmallTalk Phonemes?

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2020-10-06, version 4.4*

The app works well but the videos for some of the sounds include a schwa sound after the phoneme. “Buh” for /b/ and “duh” for /d/ etc. I wish these had been produced without the schwa.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-07-11, version 4.1*

Recent update fixed the glitches!

Lingraphica apps are great for patients with aphasia or a multitude of speech disorders. Their tech support is amazing. And if your patient has long standing communication issues, you should try a communication device. They will let you try them at no cost (unbelievable but true). I’ve had patient’s speech improve just by using the device but also it’s a great AAC device for adults.

### 1/5 — Stopped working?

*2020-06-28, version 4.1*

Was fine with previous version, new one doesn’t even get to the list of phonemes...

### 1/5 — Glitchy!!

*2019-12-23, version 3.4*

Everytime I click a sound, the app immediately crashes.. can't view any videos either. Please fix!

### 3/5 — Glitchy

*2019-09-30, version 3.4*

App closes after each phoneme video. Otherwise love the program. Would like some CV, CVC, CVCV progression

### 1/5 — Not working

*2019-07-31*

Videos aren’t working and it keeps shutting down. Such a shame it’s not working anymore because it was a great app.

### 3/5 — Please update

*2017-12-11, version 3.4*

Since Apple has updated the os, the app is super glitchy. Please make them compatible

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2014-12-25, version 3.2*

I use this with my grandchild as does her speech therapist. It had an early bug but now works perfectly. Thank you

### 2/5 — Freeze

*2014-12-06, version 3.1*

This is a good app if it didn't freeze all the time ,very frustrating for stroke patients .
Please fix it .would rate it 5 star if working but only 2 now .

### 4/5 — No frills

*2014-08-21, version 3.1*

Provides some helpful visual support for each sound.
