WORD PREDICTION
Using a smart word prediction technology, the app makes speaking out a text-based message easy. Predictable learns from your pattern of use and predicts what you will type in your next message. It aims to make typing easier and more efficient.
PHRASES
Save phrases that you need quick access to - for appointments, school or work. You can edit them and add new ones that you might find useful. Use the phrases with or without symbols, depending on what you find easier. It is possible to attach videos, images and message banked files. You can arrange the phrases in a grid set-up which may support earlier AAC users.
