Personalized Guide Toolkit The MyGuide app is a customizable content management system designed for neurodiverse users and the people who support them. Myguide users build, schedule, and play interactive multimedia guides about any topic or subject, such as activities, tasks, choices, experiences, rules, social interactions, assignments, medications, references, etc. Each account includes a robust multimedia toolkit to build, copy, personalize, schedule, and play guides that present information at the right time and in the right format, and encourage user feedback about what they are doing, thinking, and feeling. Guides and their automatically generated reports of utilization data and responses are stored in a private personal library. Users can share access to their private library, their toolkit, and their reports with other authenticated myguide accounts. Users can also access guide samples and templates from a published catalog of guides developed by clinicians, organizations, and other users. Guides consist of one or more screens that make up one or more sequences, or groups of screens. Guide building tools offer plugins to customize each page with information, prompts, instructions, questions, response options, and more with digital resources like text, images, GIFs, audio, and video that can be customized for size, font, position, and visual effects. Actions can be programmed for any screen or plugin, including visual effects, text-to-speech, go to screen, go to website, add data to report, make media visible or invisible, and more.

Visual Day helps parents, caregivers, and teachers turn everyday routines into clear, calm, visual steps. Built for children who thrive with predictability — including autistic kids, ADHD, and early learners — it makes "what's happening now and what's next" easy to see. THREE KINDS OF BOARDS • Visual Schedules — lay out a full routine step by step, and check tasks off as you go. • First-Then — the simplest way to show "first we do this, then you get that." • Token Boards — earn tokens toward a reward to build motivation and follow-through. DESIGNED FOR REAL FAMILIES • Kid Mode — a full-screen, distraction-free view with big touch targets, made for little hands. • Hundreds of clear symbols built in plus your own photos (all private -- even we do not store them). • Drag to reorder tasks, set optional countdown timers, and add gentle routine reminders. • Optional voice output reads tasks and rewards aloud. • Celebrate finishing with satisfying confetti. TRACK PROGRESS • See streaks and completions over time to spot what's working. • Manage boards for multiple children from one place. PRINT & GO • Export any board as a clean PDF to cut, laminate, and reuse — perfect for the fridge, classroom, or on the go. WORKS EVERYWHERE • Universal app for iPhone and iPad. Your boards sync to your account so they're ready on every device. Visual Day is a supportive tool for building routines and independence. It is not a medical or therapeutic device. PRIVACY & SECURITY Your family's data stays yours. Boards and progress are tied to your private account and synced over encrypted connections — never sold, with no third-party advertising. Any photos you add are used only on your device and are never uploaded to our servers — they stay with you. Creating a child profile requires your consent, in line with COPPA and GDPR. SUBSCRIPTION Visual Day is free to use with up to 3 boards and 3 children — including all three board types, Kid Mode, reminders, and timers. Upgrade to Visual Day Pro for unlimited boards & children, PDF export, and advanced progress tracking. • Price: $9.99/$39.99 per month/year, billed through your Apple ID. • Your subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://visual-day.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://visual-day.com/privacy Questions or feedback?

Visual Day's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 10 days vs monthly). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
