StoryRetriever
Autism & AAC, Clinic to Home
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Create a visual story in minutes, share it with one tap, and it stays in sync on every family device. Free to start.
StoryRetriever helps Speech-Language Pathologists and families
create personalized visual stories for children with autism,
developmental delays, and communication challenges, then share them
instantly, so what works in the clinic works at home too.
Most visual stories never leave the professional's office.
StoryRetriever changes that. A professional creates a story during
a session, shares it with one tap, and the family is using it at
home the same day. No printing. No emailing PDFs. No lost pages.
FOR FAMILIES
Prepare your child for haircuts, doctor visits, new schools, and
any moment that needs a little extra support. Add photos from your
camera roll, record your own voice on any page, and build something
that feels like your family. Stories work completely offline once
downloaded, so no Wi-Fi is needed when it matters most. The free
tier includes one child profile and [FREE STORY COUNT], fully
functional with no time limit.
FOR PROFESSIONALS
Build reusable templates with fill-in-the-blank placeholders like
[CHILD_NAME] or [PLACE], then share finished stories at the
permission level that makes sense: view only, edit, or edit and
share. Your Professional Dashboard shows which families are
engaging with what you've sent. Collaborate with colleagues and
publish your best templates to the community Marketplace.
COMMUNICATION BOARDS, TOO
Picture-based boards support daily routines, choices, and greetings
alongside your stories. Build your own grids or start from
ready-made boards in the Marketplace.
A FEW THINGS WORTH KNOWING
- Branching "Choose Your Own Adventure" stories for decision-making
practice
- Multiple images per page with flexible grid layouts
- Custom backgrounds: solid colors, gradients, or your own photos
- Child profiles that track age and birthdays automatically

more As a pediatric speech therapist, I use social stories daily, and this app has completely streamlined the process. I love being able to personalize stories with a child’s name and photos to increase engagement and comprehension. It’s user-friendly, visually appealing, and helps translate complex social expectations into concrete, predictable information for kids.

StoryRetriever is a super user friendly way to be able to create storybooks and photo boards for your kiddos! Having the ability to create, share, receive, and edit the stories helps so much with adaptability to the child’s needs and learning process.

3.14.3 Jul 29
We've been in the story editor this week.
Not adding big new features, just making sure the experience of actually building a story feels as smooth as it should. If you've ever hit a snag mid-session with a family, or noticed something feel slightly off when editing pages, this update is for you.
Bug fixes aren't glamorous, but they matter. The story editor is the heart of StoryRetriever, and we want every tap, every page turn, every photo placement to feel effortless. A clunky editor breaks the moment. A smooth one gets out of the way and lets the story do its job.
We're committed to getting the small things right, because the families using these stories are counting on them to work exactly when they need them most.
