Ratings and Reviews
Very useful app
A novel way to carry out pacing therapy. Great for helping dysarthria patients slow their rate of reading and say each syllable/word more clearly
Developer Response ,
Thank you for your review. We're very pleased that you find Speech Pacesetter useful for your patients with dysarthria.
Update has caused glitches
Since the new update, I am unable to highlight individual syllables using my own texts. Before the update I was able to, but now it randomly highlights text and doesn’t work as intended. Please fix this!! It was such a good app before.
Developer Response ,
Hello, apologies for the late reply. We've updated the app since January and it does now highlight each syllable in the user's own texts. Please let us know if you are still having issues. You can contact us via email lorraine@aptus-slt.com Best Wishes.
Really useful
This app is so simple to understand and really useful. You can change the speed to suit your needs and can even load your own text into it. The only app I could find that works as well cost £100+ on PC
