ABOUT ELINE
It started with Tim. Tim is mentally disabled and cannot talk. He relies on a speech computer to communicate with his environment. When Tim found a new companion, Eline, it started for four weeks with her in the name of the speech computer.

PRIZE
In 2017 ElineSpreek received an award from the Digital Communications Awards in Berlin & in 2018 the app has been nominated for the Hague Innovators Challenge 2019.

What do people say about the app;
I am a speech therapist and I often have to deal with speech computers. Normally it takes me too much time and effort to get everything. Fortunately, with ElineSpreek I can effortlessly and quickly set up a new set up per user with new symbols and texts.

Your app ElineSpreek is really what I've been looking for for years for my son with autism. He's very good with an iPad and this is just a great invention. THANK YOU! Also on behalf of my son Nick.

As a supervisor, it is very good for us if we do not understand our clients. ElineSpreek is a breath of fresh air. It is very easy to use. It really makes our work more fun and a whole lot easier. Eline Speaks' really turns your iPad into a speech computer!
Marjan

The miracle of ElineSpreek. All of a sudden our son Yanik can communicate with us much better. And because he can, he is much less frustrated, we understand him.

CLOUD-based
Parents, carers and therapists can work together in the same profile. ElineSpreek is fully cloud-based, so that we can benefit from all the advantages of the cloud. Think of smart remote editing, real-time synchronization, no loss of settings data in case of iPad damage, and knowledge awareness through compiled libraries.

SYMBOL communication
Symbol for voice communication (symbols, emojis, images, photos and videos).
Stories (pictures, videos & sound recordings). Simple sentence building. natural strain

TEXT Communication
Text to speech with word prediction, on-screen keyboard to synthetic speech. Choose from natural voices.

Promising, needs update with features

There are a lot of things I like about this app, but some glaring omissions too. First, what is missing: There is no search feature- important if anyone else will be modeling use of the AAC app at home or at school, and that person needs to know where a particular word is located, or if the word exists at all. The second feature missing is the ability to assign a specific page for a button to jump to. You can create new pages very easily (and change between a handful of page button sizes interchangeably), but it appears you can’t make a button to jump to the home page, for example. You also cannot easily hide a bunch of buttons on a page at once, which is useful when first starting out exploring a device. I also was surprised to see a very basic error included- when you tap the “I” button, it announces “capital I” instead of “I”- this was easily fixed, however, by going in to edit mode and teaching it to speak another message, “eye”, so that it sounds correct when selecting “I”. Considering these issues, the lifetime one-time purchase needs to be more competitive. I do like that you get a full 30 days to trial the app as well. (I did have to use my email to create a free account to do this.) Now the pluses: there are several premade vocabulary size options to choose from- I like the 5 x9 grid the best- this has plenty of preloaded vocabulary, and adding more is a quick process-editing is very easy and intuitive - you can even embed you tube videos, your own videos from your camera roll- OR you can take a video on the fly right then and there and add it to a button, very cool. Same with pictures, audio, text, AND drawing- very few AAC apps have this capability. I LOVE the ability to search for a picture online through the internet as well. Sometimes you just want to add a nice picture of a food choice or something, and looking for a clear image of that with no background clutter is easy using this search feature. I also like how you can add a button on any page, as needed, that brings up a pop up text window- where you can write in a word via the keyboard as an additional way to communicate. It is also easy to set the background color of a button- I find it very useful, for quicker word-finding, to use color coding to distinguish between verbs, nouns, and other parts of speech. I think this app has a lot of promise, but needs to add more features to justify such a high price tag if purchasing outright.
