MyComms vs Sandpit Talk

Clear communication starts with MyComms - an inclusive visual support app made for everyday life.

Whether you’re a parent, teacher, therapist or support worker, MyComms makes it easy to personalise supports for the people you care about. Features that support comprehension, regulation and independence: • Create daily visual schedules - structure routines across home, school, work, or community settings to support transitions and reduce overwhelm • Step-by-step task breakdowns - simplify routines for teeth brushing or preparing a meal • Weekly calendars – preview and plan the week with visual clarity • Choice boards – empower users to express preferences, emotions and ideas • Over 100+ pre-made templates – download and edit to reflect your own routines and preferences • Use your own photos – real images make communication more personal and age-appropriate • Uses your own home language when creating visuals • Easy sharing and exporting – download as PDFs or share via email, text or social media • Custom profile – great for professionals or families Made for people with: • Autism / Autistic identity • ADHD • Intellectual disability (Down syndrome, fragile X, etc.) • Acquired disability (stroke, brain injury, dementia) • Language processing or comprehension differences • Executive functioning challenges • Anxiety Who uses MyComms? • Parents, families and carers • Speech-Language Pathologists and Occupation Therapists • Teachers and early childhood educators • Behaviour support practitioners • Disability support workers • Aged care workers • Anyone seeking accessible communication tools Why choose MyComms? • Because visuals support more than communication - they build confidence, clarity and inclusion. • MyComms supports receptive communication, comprehension and executive functioning by making abstract concepts visible and routines more predictable. • Users can personalise visual supports using real photos that reflect their culture, community and everyday life. • Clinician-built.

Got an inclusion challenge on your mind? Let's have a chat. Sandpit Talk is a space for educators to think through a classroom inclusion challenge with pixel Craig — an AI companion built on the inclusive-education approach of Craig Smith, creator of The Universal Sandpit and educator with 20+ years experience working with neurodivergent students. Describe what's happening in your classroom and have a real back-and-forth: pixel Craig listens first, asks the questions a trusted colleague would ask, and offers practical, evidence-informed strategies for Australian classrooms — always strengths-based, always neurodiversity-affirming. Then, when you're ready, one tap turns your conversation into a simple five-step implementation plan you can start this week. Every plan includes a "look for" sign so you know each step is working. FEATURES • A genuine conversation — not a form. Pixel Craig reflects, asks, and suggests, grounded in strengths-first, environment-first practice • Five-step plans built from your actual conversation, ordered so step one can start tomorrow • My Plans — every plan saved on your device, ready to revisit • Share any plan as a PDF to colleagues, leadership, or your own records • Private by design: no accounts, no analytics, conversations never stored, and Craig never sees your conversations or plans • Designed for iPhone and iPad, with full VoiceOver and Dynamic Type support Sandpit Talk supports — never replaces — your professional judgement, your school's processes, and the team around your student. From The Universal Sandpit, used by thousands of educators worldwide.
