## What is Word Vault Pro?

*** I can't say enough wonderful comments about this app! - Sue
*** "I absolutely love this app." - Amy, SLP ***

The ultimate tool for SLPs, parents, teachers, and professionals to teach articulation, language, and social skills. Quickly find and use functional words, phrases, sentences, stories, flashcards, and audio by sound, blend, place, difficulty, or concept through easy navigation.

Word Vault Pro is easier to use than ever before and now provides you with 1800+ HD real world picture flashcards, 25+ categories with images or interactive activities, and audio for every word, phrase, sentence, story, question, and content category (over 20,000 recordings!)

If you need more than what comes in the app...no problem.

You can add your own custom words, phrases, pictures, and record your own audio for any list. Create and organize custom lists in My Vault to fit the individual needs of those you work with.

Easily create and edit client profiles and groups to maximize therapy time and practice. If you run out of time the Vault, Place, and Level of Difficulty is saved for each profile you work with, and returns you exactly to the place you left off, the next time you work with them.

Word Vaul Pro’s smart and easy to use client management and data tracking system allows you to work with up to 10 clients at a time and record data for each individual while working in different content areas of the app. Email progress data to any recipient of your choice.

The 1-touch email feature allows you to send any content (even words and lists you create) seamlessly to anyone for home practice, or you can simply invite them to download the free version of Word Vault on their iOS device.

Developed by two ASHA certified Speech Language-Pathologists Word Vault Pro makes teaching all areas of speech and language easier.


*This app is dedicated to my Mom for always believing in me, we miss you Grammy Nov. 1951 - Feb 2011, for my Dad who taught me how to work hard, for my Wife who I love and has been so supportive during this journey, and for my kids who keep me smiling.

### 1/5 — Nothing is working!

*2024-10-02, version 2.7*

I had used this app last year without any problems.  I went to use it this school year and I couldn’t get access.  I would try to sign in and it just said I had an account, but wouldn’t open my account.  I deleted my previous app and downloaded and paid for a new annual fee access.  None of the pictures will download and I found that now I have to pay separately for the games.  I get no response from app support.  May have to cancel and get a refund.  I hate to have to do this.  My students really enjoyed the app and we got so many more productions using the app :(

### 1/5 — Should’ve read the reviews

*2021-11-30, version 2.7*

I should’ve read the reviews about pictures not downloading before I paid for the pro version. That’s my fault, but am disappointed that I wasted money on an app that doesn’t work. Stick with the free version.

### 2/5 — Has Potential

*2021-10-11, version 2.7*

Was super excited at the prospect of this app. I had used the word lists from the website multiple times in therapy before purchasing. After I paid for the pro version I figured out this app doesn't do half of what I want it to. You can edit lists to some extent but it feels like you’re constantly doing “workarounds” to make the app work for you. Can’t easily edit word lists, can’t easily create your own lists by adding photos, can’t create lists of specific words from already existing word lists for one patient. All very frustrating. I have had this app for a few years and still haven’t gotten my money’s worth because of how limited I am in the functionality.

### 5/5 — Excellent resource.... with caveats

*2019-11-12, version 2.7*

An excellent course, containing useful material for speech/reading work. 

Caveat 1:  The course is geared towards American English. If you are studying/teaching British English, you will need to make the occasional adjustment because of vocabulary and cultural priorities.

If you are using the app to assist with British English pronunciation, you will also need to make a few adjustments in various places (as a student, you might want to seek informed guidance).

Caveat 2:  The course is designed for children. Some of the sample/practice phrases and sentences may need adjusting too.

### 1/5 — No custom pictures/audio on My Vault

*2019-11-07, version 2.7*

I created Christmas 2019 on my Vault. Still no custom pictures/audio!

### 3/5 — I thought I would have games

*2019-09-17, version 2.7*

The free version of this app shows a game and tools folder, which you cannot access unless you pay for the pro version, which I did, yet those folders don't exist in the expensive paid for version. I'm confused. Otherwise, the app is user friendly and has a large catalog of materials. I would have given it 5 stars if it weren't for this and my other grievances.

Additionally, the pictures don't show for all of the words.For example, when I start initial /s/, the first word on the list is 'sack' but when you do the pull down, the first picture is cereal. This is not the only example of this, either. For as much money as this app costs I expected much better.

### 3/5 — It’s ok

*2019-07-16, version 2.7*

I bought this to get an increased variety of stimuli and minimal pair practice.  I like the vocalic r and vowels section in the artic. But the vowels section (and a few others) do not come with pictures.  The minimal pair section has no pictures and is kinda useless.  And you have to download each section of pictures individually.  Overall, there are lots of useful word lists and stimuli, but it doesn’t seem worth the money without the pictures already loaded and completely missing in many sections.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2019-03-28, version 2.7*

This app keeps crashing on me. Very frustrating

### 1/5 — Glitch

*2019-02-21, version 2.7*

In middle of therapy. Phonological stops😡

### 3/5 — Still cannot access Pro pictures I had last year!

*2018-10-08, version 2.5*

I love this app, however when purchased the Pro version over a year ago, I never had a problem with the pictures coming up until this year. They just won’t download. I tried problem solving everything and I know it is not the school’s internet because I get the pictures on my phone (while I am also connected to the school’s internet.)
  I went so far as to email myself all my student’s progress, then took a huge breath and deleted the app! I re downloaded it to my iPad hoping with fingers crossed that was what it needed but to no avail. I now have the app but NO student profiles. 
I will now have to add all my students again. 
  I will say I emailed Luke, the developer for help and he got back to me with some suggestions but what he suggested still does not work. 
Very sad in Texas....
