Review Highlights
“The development of this app took into account many educational, communication, and technical factors…. a great option for beginning a comprehensive visual support program for communication for individuals with special needs. The apps support communication at all levels and there is potential for the apps to meet all current and future communication needs. The apps are fairly easy to use technically and are fully customizable so they can work for a variety of ages and levels.”.
