Gateway with Compass

The Compass app is created by Tobii Dynavox, a Tobii Technology Company, and the industry leader in helping connect lives through communication.

This version of Compass includes the premium Gateway pageset. Created by Dr. Joan Bruno, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Gateway is comprised of single words that can be joined together to create longer messages. Gateway has evolved over the years to reflect a variety of developmental levels, types of communicators, and changes in technology.

Compass provides a voice for individuals who cannot use their natural voice to participate in their everyday lives. Compass is the sixth generation of software from the company that you can rely on to provide a pathway to communication success.

With the ability to quickly customize your communication pages, Compass provides all individuals, no matter their age or communication level, the power to communicate with everyone who is important in their life. Gateway with Compass also includes all the content found on Tobii Dynavox devices and the Compass app, Providing the largest variety of communication content available in any AAC solution.

In addition to the exciting and dynamic communication options available at your fingertips, the Compass app uses the power of cloud technology to manage and update your communication pages anytime and anywhere. Compass seamlessly connects with your personal “myDynaVox” account which gives you access to teaching and therapy supports, the ability to share content between family, therapist, other users, and other members of the support team, as well as backup and restore your communication files. The cloud-based myDynaVox portal is a feature that is free with your purchase of Compass.
