Tala: AAC for Autism & Apraxia
AAC for nonspeaking children
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Tala helps kids with autism, apraxia, and speech delays communicate. An AAC app for nonverbal and minimally speaking children — set up in minutes, not weeks.The first time they tell you what they want changes everything.
COMMUNICATE
Your child taps a picture card, Tala speaks. "Can I have water." "Something hurts." "I want a hug." Start with tap-to-talk, or switch to sentence building when they're ready to combine words. Icons designed to be understood at a glance — even for kids who don't read yet.
BUILT AROUND THEIR LIFE
Tell us your child's favorite foods, the people they love, what they're into. Tala builds AAC communication boards around their actual world — not a generic starter set. Add real photos of Mom, their cup, their school bag. New to AAC? We guide you step by step.
DAILY STRUCTURE
Visual schedules, first/then boards, and gentle timers show your child what's happening now and what comes next. Morning routines, mealtimes, transitions, bedtime — laid out clearly so everyone knows the plan. Less confusion, more confidence.
SOCIAL STORIES, READY IN SECONDS
Dentist tomorrow? First day of school? Describe what's coming and Tala builds a visual story to walk through it together. Prepare for what's next, before it arrives.
DESIGNED FOR CALM
Calm colors, generous spacing. Large, clear icons with distinct shapes. Works offline — in the car, the waiting room, anywhere without signal. No ads, ever. No tracking. Parent settings protected behind a PIN.
FREE FOR SLPs AND TEACHERS
Tala works at home, at school, and in the clinic. Model at home what you practice in sessions. Speech-language pathologists and teachers get full access for free — bring your whole team onto the same communication system.
