Mela AAC
A voice for every child
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
A calm, simple voice for every child. Tap a picture, Mela speaks. Free, no ads, no account.
Mela is a free, fully on-device communication app (AAC) for people who don't speak — autistic children, and anyone who finds talking hard. Tap a picture, and Mela says it out loud.
• 100% free — no ads, no accounts, no subscriptions, ever.
• Private by design — nothing leaves the device. No tracking, no cloud.
• A calm, fixed board that grows with your child, so buttons stay where muscle memory expects them.
• Speak with Apple Personal Voice or built-in voices.
• Add your own words and photos.
• Visual scenes — tap parts of a real photo to talk about it.
• Switch scanning for switch access.
• A parent lock keeps settings safe from little hands.
• Works fully offline.
Mela was made to give every child a voice. Free, forever.
