Vocable AAC

This app is so helpful for my non verbal days. Could the devs please make it possible to copy and paste text? Sometimes I want to edit a custom phrase and I have to delete the whole thing and write it out again, which is very taxing. Sometimes I type what I want to say on my notes app and if I could quickly transfer it to this it would make a huge difference. Thank you!

I’m a semi verbal autistic teenager. This app is quite good. The ability to change section names and customise phrases is good. I’ve added many of my mannerisms to make the voice feel more like me. Swearing - even mild stuff like damn, doesn’t seem to be recognised as words, though it’s pronounced. Could be more inclusive of swearing - being non verbal doesn't mean you have to be polite. Only issues are there is only one voice option, which is quite feminine, and the aac doesn’t seem to understand acronyms or punctuation. Write ‘uhm’ they say U-H-M, write adhd and it pronounces it adjhid. Lol. But for a completely free app, with no in app purchases or annoying pop ups, really good.

To the developers thank you so so much. This app has not only been great for communication when I have non verbal episodes with my handy dandy autism and selective mutism but I also use this a lot wether school, work or public situations. The app is easy to navigate and I appreciate the no ads. The only thing that I wish could be added is grouping inside categories! Please and thank you for giving me the ability to speak and to be heard in moments I cannot.

You wrote a review saying that the “move closer to device” alert kept showing up and you couldn’t get rid of it. I’m a seperate user that just downloaded the app and I temporarily had the same issue. I solved it by going into the app settings, then “Selection Mode” then next to Head Tracking I slid the slider to the off position. I hope this helps, loving the app so far.

Why the flashing red notification saying I should be closer to my device? Is there any way I can turn this off?

Thank you for making a free AAC app💜 I struggle with speaking sometimes and other aac apps are far too expensive.

The first thing I wanted to enter was my birthdate because that’s a standard question before seeing a doctor but there’s no option for number access in the keyboard so it has to be typed with words!

this is an amazing app! The only things i got bothered with were the voice and the slow typing. i suggest for this app have different voice types like for male and gender neutral and different types of voices in general because the default woman voice is pretty annoying and repetitive

I would give this five stars if the keyboard to type was the same as the standard keyboard and if there was a male voice option. Otherwise it’s perfect!

Hello! I Have Used Vocable For About 2-3 Months. I Have 2 Recommendations That I Think Could Improve The Overall Function Of This App. Recommendation One, Keyboard Options. I Understand That The Keyboard Used In This App Is Mainly Targeted For Both Younger Audiences And People Who Find It More Difficult To Read And Spell. I Think It Should Be Made Possible To Toggle To A Users Phone Used Keyboard To Make The App More Inclusive. As A Neurodivergent Teen And On The Older Side Of Your Audience, I Find The Apps Current Keyboard Very Difficult To Use. Other Reviewers Of My Age Range Also Have Mentioned How Frustrating The Keyboard Is To Use Due To How Slow It Is. I’m Not Saying Remove The Original Keyboard Entirely, I Am Simply Saying To Make It Possible To Use My Current Phone Keyboard As Well. My Last Recommendation Would Be The Ability To Re-Order Your Set Phrases, That Way You Can Order The Most Used Phrases To Be At The Top Of The List In A Category While The Least Used Phrases Can Be Moved To The End Of The List. This Is All I Wanted To Touch On, I Really Hope You Take My Review Into Consideration.
