Description
Predictable is a multi-award winning text-to-speech app for people with conditions such as ALS/MND, autism, cerebral palsy, Down's syndrome, and more. It aims to make it easier and quicker to communicate, using a range of access methods, rate enhancement features and customisation options.
Word Prediction
Using smart word prediction technology, the app makes speaking out a text-based message easy. Predictable learns from your pattern of use and predicts what you will type next, making typing easier and more efficient.
Phases and categories
Save and organise phrases that you need quick access to in a simple grid format. Further customise your phrases by adding symbols, images, audio recordings, links and more.
Shortcuts
Choose from a wide range of useful and exciting features such as notes, share, translate, chatGPT and draw to customise your keyboard screen to include features that you want to use. Attach these to keyboard keys, hot corners, head tracking gestures or external keyboard shortcuts. The possibilities are endless!

Ratings and Reviews
Awesome app
BiggMike here, as a professional content creator, digital designer for years, this is the tool I must have. I’ve been battling ALS since 2012. I can no longer walk, talk, use my hands or even breathe on my own.
This tool is my one and only tool to communicate with the world. You can even download your voice banking software. It has everything I need to easily communicate.
What a perfect app.
The ALS Experience - come see what the fuss is all about. (Facebook)

Thanks BigMike for the feedback which I will pass on to the team.
DOESN’T ALLOW USERS IN - PLEASE FIX PASSWORD ISSUE
Predictable is a fantastic app, and has become a really essential tool. Somehow, the current version doesn’t allow users in. No luck asking for a link to reset your password either. The app, as well as the website will tell you it has successfully sent an email, but nothing arrives.
Why why why? Such an easy fix. Your paid users have to use the app in “Guest Mode.” Honestly, it’s almost cruel to have an app that’s so good that users have come to depend on it, and then somehow let a glitch lock them out. There are other reviews here that also seem to be struggling with password issues.
Please fix this.

Good afternoon,
Thank you for your feedback. Could you send your user email address to support@therapy-box.co.uk please so that we can help you login? Your user account might have encountered a migration issue between Predictable 5 and Predictable 6 database, we can fix it easily if you send us the concerned email address.
Kind regards,
Gabrielle
Great AAC solution, responsive team
I found this app to be a great solution for individuals who communicate primarily through typing. The interface is intuitive and offers some nice customizable options. It allows for preprogrammed messages for efficiency when necessary. The developers have been supportive and very responsive to questions.
