TippyTalk is an Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) app for people of all ages who have trouble speaking due to aphasia, nonverbal autism, stroke, apraxia, down syndrome, ALS and other speech and language disorders. Using TippyTalk, non-verbal and speech-impaired persons use pictorial prompts to send messages to friends and family on their mobile phones. They then respond with video, pictures, audio or text to be read aloud. TippyTalk is also a text-to-speech (TTS) app as messages can be read aloud to anyone in the room with them. TippyTalk is unique, affordable, and easy-to-use. A Manager (usually a parent or other family member) customizes the app with illustrations of the TippyTalker's favorite things, such as restaurants, toys, places, pets, foods, and activities. The TippyTalker selects illustrations to create a simple sentence. TippyTalk gives non-verbal or speech-impaired persons of all ages ("TippyTalkers") two-way communication with the world! The TIPPYTALK COMMUNITY mode is for the parent/family member helping the TippyTalker AND for the invited friends and family of the TippyTalker. The TIPPYTALKER mode is for the non-verbal or speech-impaired person. IF YOU WILL BE HELPING A TIPPYTALKER WITH THE APP, YOU ARE A MANAGER. To get started, download the free TippyTalk Mobile app. You might want to have the app on two devices: your own device and the TippyTalker’s. Purchase a subscription, set up the TippyTalker, then invite friends and family. After the app is set up: – Managers customize TippyTalker for the preferences of the TippyTalker. – Managers invite friends and family to the TippyTalker's Community. – On the iPad, tablet and now even on mobile phones, TippyTalkers create a simple sentence by selecting illustrations. These become a written message read aloud OR sent to a TippyTalker's private community member. – Community Members respond with text, video, or audio. *IF YOU HAVE BEEN INVITED TO MESSAGE WITH A TIPPYTALKER, YOU ARE A COMMUNITY MEMBER. Download this free TippyTalk Mobile app. You will be able to use this app upon accepting an invitation from a TippyTalk Manager. Receive and respond to messages on your smartphone. Send video, pictures, audio or text to be read aloud.
