Read full description

Softly Speech (softly) is a private daily journal for parents tracking a child's stuttering severity, intended to be used alongside a qualified speech-language pathologist. Each evening, log a single severity score from 0 to 10 for the day. Over time, softly turns those scores into a weekly report and a long-term progress chart you can bring to your therapy sessions. What you can do: • Tap a day on the weekly grid to log a 0 to 10 severity score • Add free-text notes per week for context, observations, or things to ask your therapist • See a weekly report with averages, highs, lows, and a per-day breakdown • Track progress over weeks and months on a severity chart • Spot patterns: weekday vs. weekend, best and worst days, recent trend • Set a daily reminder at the time that fits your routine • Use the app in English or Svenska Important: softly is a personal journal, not a medical device. It does not provide diagnosis, treatment, or clinical guidance. Use it only under the supervision of a qualified speech-language pathologist. Decisions about your child's care belong with your therapist.
