Go Talk Now is an easily programmable communication app for sure Updating buttons is quick and there are video guides to show how to s of creating books even a free lite version to trial it What I really I love is how this app can be more than just a traditional communication app GTN can be used to reinforce learning new skills or to offer motivating rewards by inserting short video clips from the iPad camera roll GTN gives a nonverbal individual the opportunity to tell others about an activity through a unique communication book you create for the activity I easily create communication books of different themes that show our teenager the how to s of her in various activities by storing a short video clip Watching herself in an activity is rewarding and reinforces skills I created an entertainment book of music video downloads to watch while on the treadmill to motivate her workouts Attainment Co has a few YouTube videos sharing creative uses for GTN as well as details of creating books steps to back up communication books using a GTN in a community outing situation to mini golf and then tell other about the activity etc On my wish list for GTN is an easier way to backup communication books of more than 5 pages at a time for an iPad 2 Attainment Co Is usually pretty responsive when a glitch occurs after OS updates I found a new feature that I like of being able to crop icon images                     Communication tool but awesome for social Modeling skills rjs2kate'smom
I have thoroughly enjoyed learning and continue learning how to incorporate the Go Talk Now with a range of AT students in the public school setting Originally I had download Go Talk Now when it was in version 3 5 11 November 2012 and have seen many helpful additions in its features to make this product a worthy purchase for non verbal students children with emerging verbal skills and students with apraxia The programming process is very accessible for both new therapists and experienced therapists who have developed communication systems with other devices More importantly Go Talk Now s user manual and help guide is structured well to navigate through If you are looking for an app with high quality speech generating capabilities for students on the spectrum GTN also has video modeling features Probably the most beneficial feature for our kids needing high quality video replays of actions that we want them to remember This company has really set up their settings page well for those who need to locate different control features For my student s with cerebral palsy I like to use the touch up activation feature for buttons My experience is that kids with less control in hand coordination shaky placement while pointing at smaller icons are able to better trigger icons without as many misfires when the icons activate at the release of the touch up movement rather than with the touch down activation feature Thumbs up to the Go Talk Company for making sure this feature got programmed into their software If misfiring selections icons next to the desired word is an ongoing discouragement that one of your kids is experiencing I also suggest looking at the debounce feature housed under the accessibility area With this you can set duration lengths i g how long it takes before another icon to be triggered before selecting another button Another feature is the company s addition to support upcoming scanning devices while deciding if you want to direct your scan direct via left right rows or by up down column At my school we are able to incorporate the Bluetooth Switch it has 6 ports by using the space and enter ports to scan through icons I have not yet practice this with the predictive keyboard page but I hope that it will easy scan through with QWERTY efficiently Keep up the good work Attainment Company                     Great purchase for therapists using speech generating devices SLP Nic
Great uncomplicated easy to use customizable AAC program with good clear voices extra relatively minimal purchase easy set up and organization and somewhat limited upload to private public galleries of single or multiple sets up to five pages of your boards Go Talk s easy facility for choosing internet images to supplement each button on a board does not limit the DATA size of any of its internet images Although you may easily resize an enormous image to fit on a button it remains densely data rich Create boards full of these images and they will either take forever to upload to mail or transfer to the Gallery or occasionally crash It s wonderful to have a resident facility for accessing net images however an improvement might be continued access to find pictures the excellent resident Go Talk library is missing with a self limiting picture data size utility One must be careful of overloading this excellent program with e g too many voices too many pictures etc In my experience with Go Talk library images and a smaller data load the program s boards transfer quickly and efficiently AAC is inherently clunky and for moderate users this is wonderful program which with a little creative thinking even inspires novel therapeutic scenarios I m an SLP relatively inexperienced with AAC And this program is my own educational opportunity so I am very pleased with it Thanks to Attainment for creating it                     Excellent Program With Solvable Problem NewfSLP
Cannot even open It keeps crashing now     Not great anymore sarahelizabeth11
The July 25th update has been a nightmare for using this app with scanning It worked fine until the update I called tech support for the app and the tech person said it was the switch I was using RJ Cooper and not the app I was about ready to get a new switch when I decided to test it on one of my client s device who still hadn t done the update It worked perfectly so obviously it is not the switch it IS the update as I had suspected I m so angry that I can t go back to the previous version on my device Please fix this horrible update     Update is terrible MCO SLP
I love the ten second debounce time This is the best app ever Thank you for listening to parents of the users and making improvements I also love the 2 button option                     Love it Thank you for the improvements Shellie's Mom
The only complaint I have is that going from 4 buttons to 9 is too much I wish there were options for 6 buttons Otherwise this is a fantastic app for communication It has made it so much easier for my daughter to communicate what she wants or how she feels with just simple touching And I love the feature of being able to add anyone s voice to it Highly recommend this app for anyone with kids who have problems communicating in any way                     Great Communication App Spitfire918
We purchased GoTalkNow to replace another app we had which was really expensive and clunky to use I was able to make multiple screens that my son can use at both school and home I have also made starter pages for his teachers as well REALLY easy to use He ad his teachers no longer have to navigate through page after page of icons I also like that you can link video to the buttons for reinforcement You can set it up so kids can t just click out of the app as well how great is that Oh and they are out of Wisconsin and have VERY helpful tech support VERY helpful Can t stress how happy we are with it                     Great Communication App clevelandkid
Great app Wish there were more online templates though but with a little time and effort involved in the creation process this device works amazingly for our non verbal clients                     Awesome Debbie's RM
Seeing these bad reviews upset me Contact the company they have been so helpful All of the bad reviews areactually due to your settings they will help you to get the app working the way you want it to They are very understanding people Don t just give bad reviews before trying to figure out a solution This app has been a God sent to my son and our family I hope many of you contact the company and understand the app as we have Great App                     parent mom2jax
I am the Father of a severely disabled Child I was told that this program is unbeatable to aid in learning perhaps if it worked After getting our Money and the developer reads these reviews I am assuming that the developer might fix this I can t even import a photo from my Library without crashing this Software Strange thing is The FREE Version works Limited but it at least works So to the Developer when customers give you Big Money and this isn t cheap at 80 00 try making the paid one work too Until a fix we simply suffer and look for alternatives And Yes I have the Newest iPad fully loaded and updated Fix you mistakes     Just like the other reviewers say Meerupps

I am an SLP that works with preschoolers with special needs and my facility was excited to download this app since we are getting many more children needing the use of visual communication and AAC devices There has been an influx of parents purchasing iPads for their children especially ones with Autism Being that I m on of the more tech savvy SLPs at our facility the staff looked to me to really test out the product I was really excited to use an app that is similar to the Go Talk 9 and 20 devices but I have come to find out that the app itself keeps glitching and getting stuck on the one page that I started to create I can no longer navigate to the Home Page or any other page for that matter When I press the buttons the page flashes as if to proceed with the command but instead it stays on that page and allows me to go no where else And like I said I can t even get back to the home page I say this again because I feel it needs to be reiterated YES I have deleted the app off my device MULTIPLE times and reinstalled it MULTIPLE times and I am able to use it fine once or twice and then the problem happens all over again each time This is extremely frustrating I have also restored the iPad to its original settings and STILL had the same problem What s even worse for me though is that I have sent an e mail to Attainment Company asking for some troubleshooting advice and have yet to hear ANY sort of response back I have emailed other companies and have never waited longer than a day or two to receive a real person response I am very disappointed that this company isn t taking more of a proactive role in helping their customers out ESPECIALLY since their customers are either parents of children with special needs or professionals working in the field that truly need and could benefit from their product Still waiting on a response Hopefully this review will spark their interest and finally motivate them to help me and my facility and provide some useful information         Would like it IF it worked Katg73

We have a 4 year old non verbal son with Autism and the GoTalk Now app has finally allowed him to communicate his wants and needs with us He uses the PECS system at school but refused to use it at home When we purchased the iPad we immediately began looking for communication apps The thing we loved the most about the GoTalk Now app was that we started with a blank slate Although it takes time to customize the app it is worth it We can add and or delete things as needed which is great It s a great app for a decent price We are very pleased with it and it s wonderful to finally be able to communicate with our son                     A God Send ChristieLou79
We are pleased with the ease of editing the buttons So far no glitches and it is intuitive The built in symbol library is extensive and there is a direct link to Google images if you want to pull from the web when wifi available Simple yet not too limited up to 25 buttons per page with linking pages possible                     Go Talk Now AT Megan
