Special educators, speech language pathologists and occupational therapists have found Able AAC a proven communication solution for children and adults who can access the iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. Educators see it as a cost-effective solution for special education. Users love Able AAC because it is not only powerful, but it runs on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad platform and makes their children look cool.
Able is currently available in 3 recorded English Accents, one adult US male, one adult female and one US child voice. Several English Acapela voice engine options are available as a simple inapp purchase for all interfaces plus Type and Speak We expect to have all 20 languages supported by Acapela voice engines by the first half of 2013.
