Using My Words to Ask For What I Want Social Story

So not worth the $3. You can't add different desired items to the ones there your stuck with the 9 they give you. It should be free. I'm rather upset with the making of this app.

Pictures don't speak when you click on them. Disappointed

This app is geared toward children on the Autism spectrum, but could in theory be used by anyone with speech delays. Social stories can be a wonderful tool for encouraging communication, unfortunately this app is way too complex to be effective. Children with speech and/or comprehension issues respond much better to short direct instructions or phrases, and this app is far too wordy. The sentences are much too long and for someone like my son who has very little language, it's far too confusing. He couldn't follow it and therefore it didn't hold his attention. He's 4 and understands most of what is being said to him, as long as it's direct. He does very well with most social stories and tends to enjoy them. This may be useful for some situations, but not for ours. Rather misleading and disappointing. This app should be geared toward older children who aren't as far behind in areas of communication.

This simple app works if you haven't upgraded to IOS6 yet, otherwise it only half works. You get the story audio if you have it set to Read to Me, but you don't get the visual cartoons. So it's useless at this point until they fix it. Try the new Ablenet app- it's free.

We paid for this app and it does not work! This is the 3rd one we purchased and all 3 different apps won't work! Scam?

Love the app for our son

This app did not work when I went to the use my words screen. I like the story depictions but it easily allows you to turn the page without finishing the words on the page. There are no return to home, back, or repeat buttons which are helpful when you want to start over. Autistic children need repetition to learn. I don't recommend purchasing the app. It needs a lot of work to make it worth the purchase.
