TapSpeak Button Standard for iPad

TapSpeak Button Standard for iPad modernizes the idea of a mechanical switch that records and plays messages. We have taken the idea and extended it to provide a portable, convenient, and stigma-free tool to use for basic teaching and communication tasks. Speech Language Pathologists, parents, Physical Therapists and Occupational Therapists can all make use of our line of products. TapSpeak Button is especially useful for teaching cause and effect relationships.

The only difference between TapSpeak Button Standard and TapSpeak Button Plus is that for this app (Standard) the DynaVox/Mayer-Johnson PCS library is an In App Purchase.

TapSpeak Button for iPad runs on the Apple iPad.

Features include:
• DynaVox/Mayer-Johnson PCS 4500 symbol core library included in the purchase price available as an In App Purchase.
• Photos can be used for button images.
• An expanded set of geometric symbols can be used as button images.
• PCS symbols and photos can use a geometric symbol as a background image. You can now "place" a photo on top of a button.
• Folders have been added to organize your buttons. Create folders for each student you have or for various situations.
• The button list has button thumbnail images to help identify a button in the button list.
• In portrait orientation the toolbar completely disappears leaving a clutter-free button image. Bring up the tool bar by swiping down and dismiss it by swiping up
• Touch/Tap configuration. Adjust the screen response to allow for a variable finger drift/dwell on the iPad surface.
• External switch support via RJ Cooper's iPad switch interfaces
• Shrink and move around the screen a button image to work with target acquisition and eye-hand coordination.
• Use just the button image or the whole iPad surface to activate messages.
• Optional button border
• More!
