It provides natural sounding text-to-speech voices (CURRENTLY AMERICAN, BRITISH and INDIAN ENGLISH ONLY), high resolution up-to-date symbols, powerful automatic conjugations, a default vocabulary of over 7000 items, advanced word prediction, full expandability and extreme ease of use.Proloquo2Go is for anyone who cannot afford spending thousands of dollars on an AAC device and yet wants a solution that is just as good if not better. SLPs, teachers and parents recommend it for children and adults with autism, cerebral palsy, down syndrome, developmental disabilities, apraxia, ALS, stroke or traumatic brain injury. "The price is so compelling," said Dan Herlihy, owner of Connective Technology Solutions, "and the software and hardware platform Proloquo2Go runs on so radically improved over current devices in its category that if not quite a paradigm shift, markedly raises the bar for accessibility, ease of use, and affordability." Proloquo2Go is a universal application that can be used on iPhone, iPod touch and iPad (without requiring the user to purchase it twice). Proloquo2Go can be used to communicate without requiring a WiFi or 3G connection. -- Educational institutions can get a 50% discount on Proloquo2Go if they purchase 20 or more licenses through Apples Volume Licensing Program for Education (only available in the US right now).

We were given a chance to try this app for free along with an IPad. After the 2 weeks, I cried when we had to return my daughter's voice. This app gave her a voice. There was no more screaming and I could understand what she needed. We took this app to her school and her teachers were able to program things they needed to know from her with only 10 minutes of me showing how to use this app. I wish this app c Awesome Voice!
