Description
Multi-award winning app for people with speech disabilities who need a sleek, simple and smart way to communicate! Predictable speaks out the messages you type using your favourite from a selection of keyboard layouts (including 10 key keyboard, Apple’s own iOS keyboard, or any keyboard extension from the app store also works). Intelligent word prediction, which learns an individual’s pattern of use, makes communication even faster. Use Nuance voices, record your own voice saying familiar phrases or use your voice banked ModelTalker voice.
Save phrases in the phrase bank for quick access; add items to Favourites and set up the features for a more personalised experience. Switch accessible; people with significant physical disabilities can still work the app using one or two switches. Now in it’s 5th major iteration, with all new features and appearance.
“A company to watch in the future. Again, I like what they stand for and that the heart of their business is the desire to help people and their families be able to communicate with one another. Impressive awards and impressive company! Like that the heart of their business is the desire to help people who no longer have a voice to do so.” Sir Richard Branson, founder of Virgin Group.
