THE GAME
This unique speech therapy app is a full-length video game that will help support speech communication, fluency, naturalness, and mindfulness for people who stutter.
Stay Motivated - Helper characters in the game listen to your speech, provide immediate feedback on stuttering moments, and use scaffolding to teach new concepts. Scaffolding is used by speech and language pathologists to help people learn stuttering strategies incrementally. This increases motivation and helps build consistency in speech therapy practice.
Use Your Own Voice - Our speech recognition engine has been trained to respond to many types of responses, speaking styles, and stuttering patterns. Fluent speech, communication style, and naturalness of speech are really what the helpers are listening for in this stuttering therapy tool.
See Your Results - When you speak during the gameplay, your speech production is displayed in easy-to-read graphs. We visualize your gameplay and show how many words were successfully produced without stuttering and ones that are challenging.
Automatic Reporting - For teachers, parents, speech therapists, or you, we automatically generate reports which you can see in the game or send to yourself in a beautiful pdf. This gives a snapshot of your stuttering therapy performance and shows all the words and techniques you spoke correctly or which ones needed some extra help.
Story Mode & Practice Mode - Story Mode takes you on a journey through the world, while in Practice Mode you can practice any individual sound or sound combinations with flexible options - set specific target counts, choose word quantities, or define your preferred session duration. The control is entirely yours.
The Science - In each part of the stuttering therapy game, press the pause button and you will see the 'Science' button. A small video will appear to explain the reason behind your practice. Not to mention all the tips and facts about stuttering that are always on display.

Best speech game ever!
Oh my gosh, as a busy mom, I hardly have time to breathe let alone write reviews. But I had to take a minute to share how much my daughter and I love Fluency Friends! My daughter has made amazing progress so far and I can tell she’s feeling better about speaking. She used to be really nervous with her stuttering and would always be self conscious about her stutter. This game app has turned what would be practice/homework into something that's fun and engaging. My daughter typically gets 15 minutes of practice in a therapy session but with this app, she sometimes plays for a whole hour. I think the game portion was done with a lot of heart. I can see her face light up with the characters and she loves the story so far. The app also have these reports that have been such a game changer for us. It's helpful to have an easy look at how she's been progressing and share them with our speech therapist. Honestly, I'm blown away by how much this app has helped us in such a short amount of time. I’m so thankful that I found out about this app on Instagram. If you're a busy parent like me, I highly recommend giving it a try!

Thank you so much for giving our speech therapy app a try! We are very happy to hear that your daughter has made such progress playing the game and hope she continues to feel better about speaking. We designed Stutter Stars with the understanding that there are some limitations to a speech therapy session and wanted to expand the opportunity for practice. We want to provide speech therapy techniques as tools for users of our app so that they can be equipped and empowered to become better communicators. We greatly appreciate your review and recommendation of Stutter Stars!
This really helps with stuttering
Wow this app is amazing! I was a bit skeptical about the speech therapy techniques at first, but my mind was blown after just trying the first island. It’s really surprising how much progress I manage to get in a day. I was charmed by the game part that I forgot I was practicing. The subscription is worth it, I highly recommend this to anyone who have difficulties with stuttering

Greatly appreciate your review and thank you for playing our speech therapy game! When we designed our app for stuttering support, we wanted to make sure that we provided the tools and techniques that are part of speech therapy, but in a really fun way. Happy to hear that you have made progress with Stutter Stars! Hope you have a chance to explore all the other islands so that you can continue to learn and practice other speech therapy techniques.
Sound in the game is preventing me from progressing.
I get to the wave session with the penguin and the background noise of the waves crashing in the game is being picked up as noise and won’t present the phrase I’m required to say to progress. The three dots just linger there and the red talk bubble is flashing. I’ve tried to turn off all background noise in the app in the options. The crashing wave sound is still there. I’ve also submitted a ticket. How to fix? I paid for the month and my daughter is enjoying the game and we would really like to continue but unfortunately can’t.

Dear MichelleT31, My deepest apologies. I understand how frustrating this feels. Fortunately the three dots was a bug that has since been resolved. Please reach out to erich@sayitlabs.com and I will be more than happy to get you and your daughter back on track. Sincerely, The Stutter Stars team
