Differences between PODD digital page sets and PODD books in simPODD

simPODD is the only app that offers electronic and paper PODD the same app.

However, please note that it is not possible to directly print the electronic page sets in simPODD. Electronic page sets and paper PODD books are completely separate in simPODD.

We worked in close collaboration with Gayle Porter, the creator of PODD. She has designed PODD books and electronic pages sets in different ways:

• In the electronic page sets there is no navigation menu that you need in the books.
• Electronic page sets are only available with 15 and 60 buttons per page.
• There is a full range of PODD books available, from 9 to 100 buttons per page, in one-page or two-page opening.

To access the PODD book section in simPODD, you need to purchase a Yearly Subscription. Then, please go into Options > Books and follow the steps on the screen to create a PODD book.

Once you have created and edited your book you can export it to a computer, review the PDF and then print it.
