Martine Meijers shares her experience of introducing Proloquo2Go with a child's voice for her son. 

Everyone communicates. Communicating with others gives us connection and control in our lives. There are many ways to communicate - with facial expression, gestures, and with words and sentences. A key factor to successful communication is having language. Language gives us the words and ways to share our own thoughts and ideas, desires and wishes. 

With this update, we’re making it super easy to share your vocabulary with other devices. To do this, we’ve added AirDrop options for buttons, folders, and entire backups.

In Proloquo2Go 6, we’re implementing one of the oldest and most popular feature requests: adding audio recordings to buttons to replace text to speech. We think the range and customization this feature will allow you to add to the vocabulary will make it a great addition to the app.

In this version of the app, we’ve added extra volume options to Tools. Not only will you be able to adjust the volume on screen, we’ve also added a shout function.

An app like Proloquo2Go depends on symbols that are clear, identifiable, and relevant. This is important in getting an AAC learner engaged and interested in the system. It’s also necessary to provide all of our users with vocabulary that recognizes their daily life.
