Description
Attainment has been making augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) tools for 25 years. Our experience is front and center in GoTalk NOW, a flexible, easy-to-use, yet powerful app for people who have difficulty speaking.
NOW combines the simplicity of GoTalks (Attainment’s popular original AAC device) 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 NOW from other AAC apps.
The new NOW offers three styles of communication pages: Standard, Express, and Scenes. In Standard pages, the action occurs when the location is pressed. In Express pages, recorded or text-to-speech messages build in a speech bar and play in sequence when the bar is pressed. Scene pages are built around a single photo or image. When you arrange invisible hotspots over people or objects in the photo, the hotspots play speech, music, or videos! Feel free to mix and match pages within a communication book.
Create 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 via Dropbox or any Mac/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 is a full-feature scanning app!
Features:
• Choose 1, 2, 4, 9, 16, 25 or 36 locations per page.
• Use images from your iPad camera, photo library, or the Imagine Symbol set.
• Search the Internet in-app for the perfect image or icon.
• Purchase SymbolStix or Widgit Symbols libraries in-app.
• Crop, scale, or rotate an image using your fingers.
• Combine multiple images in a single communication location.
• Color pages, borders, and text with any hue.
• Move and size text with your fingers so it feels just right.
• Record your voice or use our free text-to-speech voice.
• Buy higher quality voices for only 99 cents each, available in over 20 languages.
• Add spoken labels (auditory cues) to any button. Great for scanning, guiding visually impaired users, and identifying any new or difficult vocabulary.
• Trim videos in-app, and play them from any communication location.
• Select our alternate video interface to pause or exit the video easily.
• Link songs from your playlist to any communication location and control them with Pause/Play, Next, and Previous.
• Include a core vocabulary button for extra quick access to important messages.
• Create multimedia social stories and step-by-step instruction layouts by linking pages with an after action.
• Share complete communication books via WiFi with any iPad user who has NOW.
• Back up communication books via Dropbox or to any Mac or PC for safekeeping.
• Store and share interactive templates (each including speech, video, text, and jump to links) on our online gallery for free.
• Download and edit premade templates from Attainment’s collection on the public gallery, also free.
• Email links to your templates to parents and colleagues, who can open the template on their iPad by tapping on the link.
• Print and save communication book layouts via PDFs.
• Access Now with single or two-switch scanning.

Great Communication App!
We purchased GoTalkNow to replace another app we had , which was really expensive and clunky to use. I was able to make multiple screens that my son can use at both school and home.I have also made starter pages for his teachers as well, REALLY easy to use. He ad his teachers no longer have to navigate through page after page of icons. I also like that you can link video to the buttons for reinforcement. You can set it up so kids can't just click out of the app as well, how great is that!?! Oh, and they are out of Wisconsin and have VERY helpful tech support, VERY helpful…. Can't stress how happy we are with it.

We have a 4 year old non-verbal son with Autism and the GoTalk Now app has finally allowed him to communicate his wants and needs with us. He uses the PECS system at school but refused to use it at home. When we purchased the iPad we immediately began looking for communication apps. The thing we loved the most about the GoTalk Now app was that we started with a blank slate. Although it takes time to customize the app, it is worth it. We can add and/or delete things as needed which is great. It's a great app for a decent price. We are very pleased with it and it's wonderful to finally be able to communicate with our son.

Great Communication App
The only complaint I have is that going from 4 buttons to 9 is too much. I wish there were options for 6 buttons! Otherwise this is a fantastic app for communication! It has made it so much easier for my daughter to communicate what she wants or how she feels with just simple touching! And I love the feature of being able to add anyone's voice to it! Highly recommend this app for anyone with kids who have problems communicating in any way!

Drains battery without warning
While the app is great and helps my son tremendously, we are finding that this app has a serious flaw. Every few days, without warning, the app will suddenly consume the iPad battery.
We use an iPad exclusively for GoTalkNow and turn on Guided Access so it is the only app that can be used. Every now and then, the iPad battery drains at an incredible rate, with this app being the only thing on. These drains always occur when the iPad is not in use. Looking at the battery plot from the past 24 hours shows a drop from 75% to 0 in the span of about 4 hours each time, starting with a sudden spike in GoTalkNow activity. This often occurs in the middle of the night!
For a $100 app, this flaw is quite infuriating...

Seeing these bad reviews upset me. Contact the company, they have been so helpful. All of the bad reviews areactually due to your settings, they will help you to get the app working the way you want it to. They are very understanding people. Don't just give bad reviews before trying to figure out a solution. This app has been a God-sent to my son and our family. I hope many of you contact the company and understand the app as we have. Great App!

Go Talk Now
We are pleased with the ease of editing the buttons. So far, no glitches and it is intuitive. The built in symbol library is extensive and there is a direct link to Google images if you want to pull from the web (when wifi available). Simple yet not too limited (up to 25 buttons per page with linking pages possible).
2q31Mom,
Updated version gone bad. Help
The app is awesome but the only reason why I gave it one star is because I purchased GoTalk for my son 3 years ago, an update was done on my app and I saw the new downloads available so I downloaded the 36 core words and added to my book BUT now I lost all of my sons original pictures and text to voice. Every time I open the app it only takes me directly to the core words and I can’t even edit any pages. I’m so upset because this wasn’t a cheap app and now how in the world can my son communicate. If anyone can offer help on how to reverse this to my original app I would be most appreciative.
Shellie's Mom,
Love it!!! Thank you for the improvements!!!!
I love the ten second debounce time. This is the best app ever. Thank you for listening to parents of the users and making improvements. I also love the 2 button option.

Update is terrible
The July 25th update has been a nightmare for using this app with scanning. It worked fine until the update. I called tech support for the app and the tech person said it was the switch I was using (RJ Cooper) and not the app. I was about ready to get a new switch when I decided to test it on one of my client's device who still hadn't done the update. It worked perfectly so obviously it is not the switch, it IS the update as I had suspected. I'm so angry that I can't go back to the previous version on my device! Please fix this horrible update!!
Happy Lali,
I love it BUT,

I wouldn’t like to lost everything I did , if this is fixed it really deserves 5 stars, everything else is perfect;)
