About

Electrique

Read full description

Sensory Electrique is a pure sensory stimulation app, for assisting basic communication with somebody struggling with speech and communication. It can also be used within visual and touch development and visual sensory response. If you are familiar with our popular app Electra, then Electrique will be familiar. Electrique (and all Sensory App House apps) do not contain advertising or collect any information from the users. Electrique is a multi touch or tap effects app, which generates the lively stimulating spark. It is also a great way to create a controlled spark effect for video. Electrique can also be keyboard or bluetooth switch controlled, with 1,2,3,4 controlling the effects, 5 hiding the buttons, and a screen tap anchoring the spark. Electrique also supports the XBox controller or Microsoft Adaptive Controlle. A crosshair will appear, and can be moved with the thumbstick or DPad and the spark can be reset by hitting A. B, X and Y control other app effects. Any questions please contact support@sensoryapphouse.com or www.facebook.com/sensoryapphouse
