We’ve taken a further step in making Proloquo relevant to you. In the following English-speaking regions, you and your child will have access to an optimized, locally relevant selection of words:
* United States
* Australia & New Zealand
* Canada
* British Isles
Proloquo is also the first AAC app to provide an International English set of words for other countries where English is among the official languages.
Each region shares a basis but is also fully adapted to local language and culture with:
* Local spelling
* Popular foods, sports, and recreational activities
* Local animals, historical and government words
* Local historic figures in sports, arts, and society
* Locally relevant country, state, province, district names
1.5.1
2022-02-16
We regularly update and improve Proloquo. In this version we’ve made a few bigger changes and taken the opportunity to fix a couple of smaller bugs:
* When choosing a word, Proloquo will now offer a more relevant set of word forms making grammatically correct speech easier. For example, if you choose ‘close’ (verb) you will see word forms such as "closes, closed, closing". Vice versa, if you select ‘close’ (adjective) you will see word forms such as "closest, closely, closeness". This is a further step towards learning grammar.
* We have made improvements throughout the vocabulary and added words to allow better and richer communication in school situations.
* We've adjusted the button tap animation so it feels smoother.
We hope you enjoy using the app and we welcome your feedback on making Proloquo better!

2021-12-18
We regularly update and improve Proloquo.
This version includes bug fixes and performance improvements as well as a few bigger changes:
* Updated the vocabulary with (among many others) new symbols for yes and no. Introduced various changes to the symbols, buttons and folders in the fringe vocabulary.
* You can now create a folder in the purple (General) tab. This is no longer possible in the blue (Adjectives) tab.
* We’ve introduced a protection against shared vocabularies being corrupted. If a vocabulary is shared in a team and one person upgrades to the latest version of the app, the others will not be able to edit unless they update their version of the app too.
