More Ways to Communicate Than Ever We've significantly expanded the card library — Kammunicate now includes over 450 pre-built communication cards, up from 340. New cards cover social closeness ("I missed you", "How's your day?"), humour and playfulness ("Ha ha", "That's funny", "You're joking"), observations and reactions ("That's interesting", "Wow", "Really?"), physical comfort and positioning ("Move me up", "Help me sit up"), environmental control ("It's too loud", "Turn the light off"), communication repair ("That's not what I meant", "Start again"), and critical safety cards including emergency escalation. Smarter, More Natural Conversations The conversation engine has been completely expanded based on research into how people actually communicate. The suggestion system now understands commentary, humour, opinions, social closeness, and communication repair — not just needs and requests. When someone says "That's funny", the app suggests playful responses. When someone says "I missed you", it responds with warmth. Suggestions now feel like a real conversation, not a menu. Easy Read — Now Even Better The Easy Read feature has been improved and now supports scheduling. You can now create multiple Easy Read messages and set each one to appear at a specific time — perfect for morning routines, mealtimes, appointments, or any part of the day that benefits from a visual prompt. Set them up in advance and let Kammunicate handle the timing automatically.
