Fluent AAC is the perfect app for people who have difficulty using their natural voice. Designed for children & adults with Autism, Down Syndrome, ALS, apraxia, stroke, or other conditions that affect a person's ability to use natural speech. From the first time you open the app, a few taps are all it takes to start talking to the world. Just tap the picture of the desired item / action / question /etc. So simple, but so powerful. You can say anything! From basic needs to a whole phrase. Step-by-step tutorials are available when you download the app. You will receive tutorials made by industry leaders. We will explain everything you need to know. The app is fully customizable and can be utilized to build language skills and grow with a person's communication, supporting both beginning and advanced communicators. Fluent AAC fits into the category of assistive technology known as Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). Words are gradually revealed, helping users learn new words and their location as their communication expands. Fluent AAC offers no limit on language development with a 3,000+ fringe word vocabulary and customizable vocabulary levels. You have full access to the user's education program, can review the user's progress, check the reports and configure the vocabulary. Since Fluent AAC is designed by speech therapists, the app can be used with inner peace by people of all ages having difficulties in communication. Studies show that: - Individuals who used an AAC app improved their social communication by 100%. - It has been observed that AAC training therapy increases users' potential and improves their behavior. - Using an AAC app is one of the easiest and fastest ways to communicate. - Users can grow from single words to full sentences.

App is nice, but customer service/support greatly lacking

My initial interactions with customer service before my subscription was pleasant. They even offered me a discount to purchase. After subscribing, I came across issues and other questions that I tried to email/chat about. Emailing was a waste of time, as this was never addressed after weeks and multiple attempts. And chat I did get response but it was extremely sporadic with minimal follow up almost as if this company is comprised of 2-3 individuals running the entire operation. There’s also been a ‘coming soon’ for the Fluent Pro (lots of improvements/updates) that seems like it may actually never come anytime soon. The initial response I got was a certain date and when I tried reaching out was told it was delayed another month and several months later still not available (not a huge issue, but worth mentioning). The app itself is good when it works, but does lag and freeze quite often. I prefer the symbols and images much more than touchchat, but I’m contemplating spending the money to go to touchchat instead because the fluidity and support.

This is the communication app we have been looking for! Finally we are able to focus on what matters (communication) rather than having to figure out how the underlying technology works. Super useful and more affordable than any other AAC app we have tried in the past!
