RadSounds is the world's greatest cause/effect music program for special needs learners. You can customize your playlist by recording or singing new music to your iPad, importing from your iPad's music library, or use the many great songs that we provide, from many types. There is Momentary mode, where the music plays for only the time you hold your finger on the iPad, Timed mode, where the music plays for a specified number of seconds upon each activation, or an advanced mode where the user chooses songs by cycling through their playlist. RadSounds is *switch-friendly*, that is, for those with physical challenges, a switch (or button) can be plugged into our iPad Switch Interface for cordless access to switch-friendly apps.
