This is a great app for working on absurdities The visuals and set up are nice and it is easy to use I also like being able to access the settings while you play but sometimes the gears settings are covering the sentences The expressive portion is well done as well and I like the option to have right wrong or cued responses There are a few things I would like the developer to consider 1 Have the choice to auto advance or not so we can talk about the picture if we want to 2 Make the audio written cue button two separate buttons 3 The last thing I want to say is that I am not a fan of the eating a dog and dog in the microwave silly pictures because I think they are less about silly and more to do with safety inappropriate situations All of the other pictures seem appropriate for silly not silly I showed the pictures to a few other people and they also didn t like those two pictures I know I can uncheck those two in the settings which is nice but I don t think they belong I do think there is a need for an app that targets safe unsafe actions or scenarios and would love to see you guys create one Thanks for all of your hard work that you put into these apps                     Is this a silly app SLPMCA

The app s mascot reminds me of Huey from DuckTales If you download this app you should also download DuckTales Treasure of the lost lamp from the iTunes store Buy don t rent                     Life is like a hurricane Sam Obie

i am a mom of a severely affected son on the autism spectrum we love this app because it is a fun way to teach about being silly the characters are bright and fun the best way to teach is to make something so fun they do not realize they are learning BRILLIANT thank you fo creating a fun way for my son to learn                     love it Allthingsautism

My students enjoy using the app and pointing out why pictures are silly I like that I can keep data                 Silly Carie G

As an SLP working in school setting with students both in general and special education I have used this app successfully with all students The children love it and I love the ability to track data It could be much improved if some of the pics were changed such as boy drinking poison and dog in microwave These are inappropriate pics for children and should be removed I also wish that you could slow down the audio prompt on new picture as it begins rather quickly I have numerous Smarty Ears apps and love most of them Some could be improved with minor tweaks of word choices and picture choices Overall your company has addressed a need for quality apps to use in therapy in a gigantic way Please continue to update and improve and I will continue to be a loyal consumer                 Love app but needs a few pics changed Dragonfli621

This app is so entertaining for the kids The app has nice clear pictures that the children find so funny We are able to have some great discussions and participate in problem solving I like the rate of speech of the narrator and especially like that the text and auditory prompt can be turned on or off Very useful app in addressing multiple goals                 Very Entertaining Carol52Carol

Love this app It is so entertaining for the kids Great pictures too                     Love Dakota Robinson

My kids love this app and they find it hilarious and are able to have some great discussion about the scenarios I do not agree with the previous reviewer about the pictures being inappropriate These kinds of scenarios can also be good discussion on problem solving and safety issues in a not so serious avenue Keep up the amazing work Smarty Ears Can t wait for all the brand new tools you will provide for my therapy in the future                     Great App Jerry Butanda

I agree with a previous reviewer that some pictures girl drinking poison baby in oven should be removed from this app Especially given the type of population that this app targets I have many Smarty Ears apps I generally love them However I do not like the audio recording I would suggest another VoiceOver             Some pictures inappropriate AZG331

I love this app because it talks at a slow rate gives the kids a second opportunity if they are wrong and keeps track of a score Best of all it keeps the silly pics so you can talk about why they are silly                     It s not silly it s wonderful Cloverdeb

Great app with fun pictures and options to adjust prompts and reinforcements                 Easy for kids to use and fun pictures Kirsten SFL

Like all of the Smarty Ears apps                 Useful and adorable stilesbeirne

I use Is That Silly regularly with my younger students They enjoy working with the app It does an awesome job of presenting the information in both the expressive and receptive formats Love the data collection piece Wonderful app to work on pragmatic skills Keep producing high quality apps for those of us in education to use                 Is That Silly rrvjean

I have been using this app in Speech Therapy and the kids love it It s great for working on receptive and expressive language skills in a fun way                     Great Language App GatorSLP

I think this app is so cure I love it It will be a wonderful tool for my daughter                 So cute mmahs

I just purchased this app earlier this week So far my students really enjoy it I like that you can take data on both receptive receptive                 VeryBusySLP VERYBusySLP

cute graphics students enjoyed activities                     students enjoy slpjoanne

A useful app for SLPs working on such goals Pros colorful has a section asking what s silly with yes no close places to record responses Cons could use other graphics for silly not silly such as thumb up down could use an option for recording just the first response per page rather than all responses             Is that Silly Stevogl

This app is awesome All of my students love learning with this app                     Awesome app for children of all ages tn_speech_teach

Pros The graphics are nice and kids seem to enjoy using it Cons Some of the pictures are inappropriate For example the baby in the oven the child drinking poison and the dog in the microwave The developers could find a better way to make silly pictures especially considering the needs of some of the children on our caseloads         Is that silly SLP1022011

I like the app except that the data function doesn t work right If you skip a picture it counts it as wrong answer which makes the data invalid I d also like to see it prompt for the expressive explanation on a new picture rather than right after they have done the receptive task otherwise they can just repeat what they just heard on the receptive task             Nice idea but the data is off SunshineSLP

I ve been looking for an app like this Will be perfect for my students with autism Also I plan on using it with my gen Ed Students for sentence structure relaying new information and articulation carryover The pictures are clean and uncontested and the app is easy to use                     SLP Fun Trisha C.-SLP
