About

Easy Write and Speak

Features
Read full description

Welcome to Easy Write and Speak. The app was created from scratch with one idea in mind: to give users the option to simply write what they want, in the easiest way possible. No menus, minimum choices, no advanced keyboard options. Simply tap the letters you want to type and hear each letter as you type it. Isn't this app too oversimplistic? Probably. Who is this app for? For deep thinkers, for people who want to concentrate on one idea. Or maybe, for people who really need this. For people who need a simple app, without anything to distract them. To make it easy for them to just type what they want, to concentrate on each letter as they hear it. Although Easy Write and Speak is not a medical app, we see it as a perfect fit for people who struggle with seeing and need big letters, or for people who need to hear each letter so they can then repeat it for themselves. The app will accept up to 22 characters and will remember whatever you type, as long as you don't remove your text. We strongly believe you'll love our Easy Write and Speak app but we know we are not perfect, so if you have any suggestions or there's something wrong that you see in the app, we'd love to hear from you at contact@codingfy.com. Are you a representative of a medical institution? We are willing to work with you to try to accommodate any requests. Contact us at contact@codingfy.com. Some of the icons inside of the app are made by Vectors Market from www.flaticon.com.

This app is a simple Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) tool for minimally verbal and non-verbal children to use while playing with other children who can't understand them. It's useful when communicating with children who may not know sign language. Kids can scroll through images and phrases in the app on their iPhone, iPad, or Apple Watch and tap on them to have the app read requests aloud for other kids to hear. Phrases such as "Play with me" and "Let's go to the slide" are included.
