WasRealyHoping....,
Good but not great
Definitely a good app, but I wish I hadn't paid $29 for it. For $29, I thought there would be a LOT LOT more to it... Its more worth $10. There aren't nearly enough pictures or ways to put sentences together. The $29 was way too much to pay. However, I do like that you can add your own pictures, I do like that you can edit, and it does give you a decent base of pictures to start with. I really hope that free updates will include more pictures and more functionality to the app. It was a nice try though... but it does need a lower price.
knothome13,
AMAZING !!!!!
Our daughter has Angelman Syndrome and is non-verbal, this app has truely changed our lives ! She is finally able to effectively communicate with us. She knows pictures and this app allows us to download pics from our camera or pull directly from google. Her speech therapist and teacher at school say it has really helped with her progress and they love how easy it is to use. They go on and pull up pics to help her participate in class almost daily. The storyboards have been great to help with her schedules and completing task. We can also set up choice boards for her. She feels like such a big girl and I can tell she is very proud when she can use this all by herself to tell us what she wants and needs! We have used tons of devices with her over the years and this is by far the best and easiest for her, and us.
Thank you so much for making such a wonderful app and for making it so affordable. Having a child with special needs is such a financial burden, so we really appreciate such a wonderful gift. I just can't say enough about it and have recommended it to our ESE Department at school and to others we know that will benefit from it...Thank you , Thank you, Thank you

Tommy_Wedge,
Great app--a must have if your child has autism!
Thank you developers for a fantastic app! I have a number of apps downloaded on my iPad for my autistic son, and iCommunicate is by far the most useful and easy to use. My son is only 26 months old, yet he is able to enjoy the program. The add-on for the sound is a must have and extremely easy to record--hearing our voices with the pictures keeps him engaged and interested. For example, the program is so versatile that we could use the built-in function to get a google image of "Itsy Bitsy Spider", and then we used the record function to record us singing the song to him. All he has to do is touch the picture, and he is rewarded with a song! Also, the developers responded almost immediately to a concern I had, and I have no doubt that they will continue to make this program even better. I HIGHLY recommend this application--thanks developers!!!
rsu21atspecialist,
iCommunicate does the job
This app, created by Grembe, is a great tool for creating visual learning schedules, boards, and pages for learners with significant special needs. There are literally 10,000 images to search from and customize. What I like best about iCommunicate is the ease of customization for any user. Staff in my district that are working with iCommunicate report that they love being able to customize "on the go", creating incidental learning for their students as it is occurring. Plus, the ability to edit and record is extremely user-friendly and non-intimidating to novice users. All in all, a great app at a great price!
BusyMomWithTwo,
Great app
This app is great i choose this app to replace my sons pecs. Its more convenient than carrying around a pocket full of pictures. He uses this to make choices on what he wants to play with, read, and eat. I set up almost 100 pictures in no time with voice and text. Very easy to use and set up. Great response time. Wonderful and quick customer service. I would recommend this to anyone who has a child that is non verbal. My son is two years old and has Down Syndrome and it works great for us. Thank you for making this program i cant wait to see more apps.
miker1972,
Love the customizable options
This is such a great app and very user friendly. I am an SLP who uses
iCommunicate to help my non-verbal students with autism communicate with their peers and teachers at school. I like that I can upload photos from the camera, camera roll or the web. I like that I have different story board options to choose from so that I can tailor them to either my therapy session or to the student¹s whole day. My students love the task completion option so that they can check off each task as we go along.

Augmentative communication for iPad
It's great to see iCommunicate be one of the first augmentative communication apps available for the iPad. It was one of my favorites for the iPhone and iPod touch, and now it's even better for the iPad. The larger screen makes it easier for my students with motor difficulties to access their words with photo support, and custom audio (via in-app purchase). Now my students have access to a well designed and cost-effective augmentative communication tool on a full-size device.
Geek SLP,
This is a clear example of how technology is revolutionizing education
Grembe apps have make a significant contribution not only to children with special needs but also to parents and teachers who experienced on a daily basis the need for "something more". iCommunicate is an app that can have so many uses. Grembe keeps coming with some great updates. I highly recommend this app for students and teacher who need access to an easy to use app with a great deal of vocabulary.
Mgallagh,
Great app for my non-verbal son
I love the fact that I can upload my own pictures and record with my voice. The storyboards are great to talk with my son about our day or what's coming up. He just has fun looking at all the different pics and listening to the words, too. This is a great app for a great price. Very user-friendly. Can't wait to see what improvements/upgrades are in the future.
cfrancesp,
Awesome!
This app is awesome and the technical support on it is fabulous too. I was having a problem and the designer went right to work to fix it. It is so easily customizable, has tons and tons of pictures, and is easy to navigate. I seriously LOVE this app! Don't waste your money on another one. Unfortunately I bought another one first and after it didn't work bought to icommunicate. It's awesome!
