Details

GoTalk NOW Music pageThe GoTalk NOW combines the simplicity of GoTalks with the dynamic capabilities of an iPad. GoTalk NOW has all the essentials of an effective AAC app, like adjustable page layouts, customizable navigation, recorded and text-to-speech capabilities, and an included symbol set. But we sweated the details to create unique and compelling features that clearly separate the NOW from other AAC apps.

The new NOW offers three styles of communication pages: Standard, Express, and Scene. In Standard Pages, the action occurs when the location is pressed. Recorded or text-to-speech messages build in a speech bar in Express Pages, and play in sequence when the bar is pressed. Scene Pages are built around a single photo or image. You arrange visible or invisible Hot Spots over people or objects in the image, and these Hot Spots can play speech, music or videos! Feel free to mix and match page styles within a communication book.

GoTalk NOW Multiple Page MenueImagine creating as many communication books as you need, each with unique settings and unlimited pages. Then share these books with other users via WiFi, and back them up for safekeeping on any Mac or PC. Envision the impact of blending video, music and jump-to actions among your pages. How cool is it to have your own private online galley to store and save your templates (up to five communication pages) for free, and to email these templates to parents and colleagues?

Plus, GoTalk NOW offers SymbolStix or Widgit Symbols Libraries as in-app purchases!
