Proloquo2Go AAC 4+

The Proloquo2Go app on my son device is the best app you can get,with my son having Down Syndrome & Kleinfelter Syndrome it’s a double whammy when it comes to speech as both disabilities have speech problems and this device with the app helps my son a lot I’m able to add things like taking a picture of his mom,dad ,brothers and sister with there names you can take your own pictures and add them and pick a voice to go with it ,I even added our phone number to our pictures and added our address ,you can also delete items on there you know they will or may not use which I have done I’ve also added certain favorite snacks my son likes,foods,people and so on its very easy to use once you get the hang of we’re what goes and what each item is under you can even pick the amount of pictures you want on ease grid and the size as well ,I am so glad my sons speech therapist she took care of all the paper work for my sons insurance to cover his device ,the device also comes with a strong rugged case with a stand which opens and closes and alphas a strong handle and 2 different length straps so you can wear the device with the app across your body so you don’t loose it,I highly recommend this device with the proloquo2go app for all kids and adults with Speech problems it has helped my son a lot he doesn’t get frustrated no more when you cannot understand what he says or to others.

My son has Autism and is nonverbal and this app is how he communicates with us and his therapists! We used a Velcro pecs book but it’s hard to continuously make card with Velcro, so his bcba suggested looking into a device. We went with an iPad and bought this app for it, so the iPad is only used for speaking. I love the app because you can customized buttons with irl photos or photos from google instead of drawings, the pictures that the app has though are great and we use about 70% of them! He is 1 year into using the app full time and has made so much growth! The app seems confusing at first glance, but once you get use to it it’s easier to navigate. There was a period where my child would be confused where things are on there, but after letting him just explore the buttons and push whatever he wants he has found buttons I didn’t even know existed ha! The app is geared toward growing with whoever is using it. I’m so thanking for proloquotogo!
The price is steep, and it was a hard pill to swallow having to drop that much on an app, but I promise it’s worth it seeing your child be able to communicate!!

as somebody who uses AAC mostly full time I have been really enjoying proloquo2go. there are a lot of ways to personalize your AAC. this includes voices, display, layout, colors, what the app speaks to give some examples. it is very customizeable which i like a lot. there is also a history function and typing function which i really like a lot! that sort of leads to some of the issues i have. there is a big learning curve in navigation and learning how to customize things was very difficult and frustrating for me, even having prior experience with picture based apps. so i wouldn't reccomend to first time AAC users especially if you aren't full-time. the new voices update sounds weird too. there's a grating breathy quality to them that's been really bothering me and i think it ironically has made some of the voices less clear sounding. there's now weird blip sounds on some words/noises that are startling. for the most part though, really solid selection of voices. that's another thing i've really liked a lot. overall a very good AAC. i would reccommend something less complex to first time AAC users, but if you have more experience and want to upgrade to something more robust proloquo2go is a very good choice.

Hi and thank you for not only the high rating you have given the app but also for taking the time to provide such a comprehensive review. With so many options to customize, we understand it can be a lot when you are first setting up the app. We have tried to make the setup process as simple as possible for new users and the less you customise the default layout, the simpler it is. We also have lots of free resources in the Support section of our website which give illustrated step by step instructions for many of these processes. These can also be accessed within the app Options. The new voices are the neural voice updates which are supposed to make the voices sound more lifelike. We licence these voices from Acapela and we are passing feedback on to them. Thank you again for your positive and detailed review and please know you can email us with questions or feedback any time at support@assistiveware.com.
