### 5/5 — Great app for visual scanning

*2012-09-07, version 1.0*

I just purchased this app and started using it with a student. He had a blast with it.  I like the various options of being able to control spacing and lines.  I'm still playing with it so I have to work with it some more.  I will definitely use this app but have a couple of thoughts.  I would like to have the option to enlarge the font/symbol.  Also..is there a way to make it more obvious when each letter/symbol has been chosen?  Another idea... How about being abound to track numerous users?

### 5/5 — Visual Attention Therapy

*2012-09-04*

I just bought this for my husband who has had a stroke and has reading, visual and attention issues. We tried it a bit today and he liked it a lot. Looks very good. It looks like there are lots of ways to vary the program. Keeps the user on his toes.

### 2/5 — ☹️

*2025-08-03*

All the symbols look exactly the same, which makes the exercise pointless. I paid for this app and expect it to work properly. Please fix this issue or provide a refund.

**Developer response:** Hi, it sounds like you're starting on Level 1 which is to practice being able to touch every item. On the Level Selection screen, you can deselect Level 1 if you don't want to do it and move to harder levels. If you're still having issues, you can contact us at support@tactustherapy.com

### 5/5 — L

*2015-01-16*

Can be frustrating for patient as iPad does not always respond to finger touch.

### 5/5 — Super!

*2014-01-28*

I am an SLP working with both children and adults. This app has been very functional for my patients experiencing memory, TBI, CVA, and/or cognitive issues. It's very handy and user friendly, even for my older 'non-computerized' adult population. Love all of these apps!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-12-04*

I currently prn at a SNF, and I often find working on attention as a common goal. This app has made working in that goal easier. This app gives a practice mode and a test mode. I often use the practice mode until the residents get the hang of what is required of them. Eventually, the residents find it to be a challenge to scan! I love this app. It makes making progress towards goals easy!

### 5/5 — Great activity!

*2013-12-03*

This is a fun and engaging app that clients/patients of all ages enjoy!  The auditory feedback helps keep the client/patient focus during the activity. The data tracking tool is very helpful as well.

### 5/5 — Great buy!

*2013-12-03*

This app has really come in handy working with CVA patients at a SNF with visual deficits. Love how you can adjust the sz of the symbols/letters.

### 5/5 — Lots of customization possible

*2012-12-12*

Visual Attention Therapy gives lots of options for customization including adjusting the spacing between symbols and the number of lines shown on screen. Emailing results helps clinicians keep records of client scores. The layout of the app is easy to use which makes independent practice easy!

### 5/5 — excellent therapy app

*2012-12-11*

Simple to use, with features that make it very useful (especially the emailing of results).  I like the Practice mode as it gives feedback to clients that they have to scan further to find the correct target.
