Clicker Communicator PCS vs Oggy AAC

A VOICE FOR EVERYONE Clicker Communicator is the definitive AAC app that gives a voice to children and young people with speech and language challenges. This is the latest addition to Crick Software’s Clicker family, developed over 20 years and used worldwide. "The app is so user friendly and easy to customize. Personally, I think it is the BEST AAC app I have seen" - Rose Duszynski, AT Specialist “I love the crisp, easy-to-use interface! The thoughtfulness of features that no other AAC apps have speaks to Crick's continued dedication to students with special needs.” - Laura Giovanetti, CAGS, CCC-SLP, ATP GET STARTED QUICKLY The ready-made Vocabulary Sets are carefully constructed using color-coded, research-based core words - a proven approach for providing a rich communication experience and developing language skills. The three levels, Clicker Core 1, 2, and 3, cover a wide ability range and use consistent layouts to optimize motor-mapping and enable children to progress from one level to the next. CREATE AND EDIT IN MINUTES Clicker Communicator works in the same intuitive way as all the Clicker Apps, enabling you to meet the particular needs of your learners by editing the ready-made Vocabulary Sets or creating your own. Personalize every last detail by adding photos, colors, and topics, and repositioning cells. And you won’t find a faster way of searching and selecting symbols anywhere! DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN We’ve used our 20+ years of experience in developing special needs software to create an app that includes: • Easy to read Sassoon font • Realistic children’s voices • Child-friendly keyboard with symbol-supported predictor • Research-based Vocabulary Sets at three levels • Free curriculum-based Vocabulary Sets on LearningGrids PCS SYMBOLS INCLUDED This app comes with the complete PCS symbols library (SymbolStix and Widgit versions of Clicker Communicator are available as separate apps in the App Store). If you wish to use a combination of the sets above you MUST purchase the SymbolStix version of the app (in which these sets are available at an additional cost), as you cannot purchase additional sets for this version. Additional pictures are provided by the CrickPix Library: 3,500 curriculum pictures to support a wide range of classroom topics. TALK IN CLASS Get your learners with speech challenges taking an active vocal part in the classroom. Our free LearningGrids resources provide the opportunity to respond to teaching points, participate in discussions, and ask and answer topic-based questions. These sets provide access to the vocabulary your learners will meet in their curriculum topics, and provide a natural link to literacy development. UNIQUELY ACCESSIBLE Clicker Communicator has a wide range of accessibility options: • SuperKeys – our unique access method for those who need big target areas. Just tap the cluster containing the symbol you want, and then tap the symbol in the enlarged cluster. • No scrolling or swiping – so every tap is accepted. • Switch access for one and two switches. • Toolbars only visible when editing – all navigation is done from the grid. • Favorite/Recent messages and Vocabulary Sets accessible with just two taps. SHARE AND BACKUP There’s a Backup Safe provided within the app, and Vocabulary Sets can be shared or backed up via email, AirDrop, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, or WebDAV.

Oggy turns your iPhone or iPad into a simple speech board. Tap a button, "I want water," "All done," "I love you" and Oggy says it out loud. That's the whole idea, and it works in seconds. Or build out entire sentences by tapping word buttons. Two modes for two separate needs. It's built for parents, caregivers, and speech-language pathologists who want something fast to set up, easy to learn, and respectful of privacy — without paying the $200+ that traditional AAC apps charge. BUILD A BOARD YOUR WAY Add up to 12 buttons in the free tier — unlock unlimited buttons and a pre-built core board with a $9.99/year subscription. Each button speaks whatever phrase you choose, with the symbol of your choice: a photo from your library, a quick camera shot, or any emoji from your keyboard. Pick a color, arrange the grid the way that makes sense, and rearrange anytime with a long-press and drag. VOICES THAT FIT YOUR FAMILY Choose from the natural voices already on your device, then fine-tune speech rate and pitch with simple sliders until the cadence feels right. Preview any voice before you set it. GENUINELY PRIVATE Everything stays on the device. No accounts, no sign-up, no cloud upload, no analytics, no ads. Buttons, photos, and settings are stored locally. Oggy never phones home — what your family says is nobody else's business. PARENTAL CONTROLS BUILT IN A PIN-protected lock keeps the settings out of small hands, so taps during real conversations never rearrange the board by accident. Unlock with Face ID or Touch ID where supported, with the PIN always available as a fallback. SIMPLE, FAIR PRICING Start free with up to 12 buttons and every core feature — all the voices, full customization, and parental controls. When you're ready for more, unlock unlimited buttons and all future features for $9.99/year. That's a fraction of what traditional AAC apps charge, and it keeps Oggy free of ads and data harvesting. BUILT BY SOMEONE WHO CARES Oggy is made and maintained by a solo developer focused on making communication tools that families can actually afford. Your subscription funds ongoing updates and new features. MORE ON THE WAY Multiple boards (one per child or context — "morning routine," "at school"), predictive next words, cloud backup to move between devices, and additional voices. Every future feature is included with your subscription. MADE FOR • Parents and caregivers of nonverbal or minimally verbal children • Speech-language pathologists and AAC specialists • Adults who use AAC for any reason • Anyone who needs a fast, simple way to say prepared phrases out loud FREE VS.
