What users are saying

1. If you are aware of this issue, help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Love the program.This is a great app lots of icons to edit for your child and you can change almost everythingFound it complicated and limiting, wasn't what I was looking for but I'm sure its helpful for others.This app is clunky and keeps moving things around when I try to edit.

2. It has no universal core words such as "this, it, put, here, there, mine" etc., which makes actually forming sentences very difficult without extensive editingWish there were a way to make the options bigger! Very hard to navigate on a phone with a non verbal, special needs child trying to use it to communicate.Hi app is great.. I'm facing a small issue in recording.

3. One small change I would like to see is the addition of realistic children's voices since it's being used for a child.The app was great and then problems opening.

4. I am not able to play back the recorded voice.. i want to use my own voice for symbols rather than system generatedI use this app as a very capable backup for my daughter's Tobii communication device.

5. Taking away all functionality after a lot of effort and time being put into making the perfect boardsThis is an awesome app that is customizable for each user even down to two choices at a time with real pictures.

6. Tried contacting them and never heard back.Was a great tool untill it started glitching amd won't let me delete tiles anymore.

7. Content created on one device does not show up fully on the other (seemingly random).

8. It creates placeholder items (you can tell something is there but you cant select or edit it).

9. I'm running into a problem when I sync the content between two devices.

10. It works great.

11. Now it won't stay open long enough to use app.
