What is TouchChat HD - AAC? Description of TouchChat HD - AAC 3007 chars
TouchChat is a full-featured Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) solution for individuals who have difficulty using their natural voice. TouchChat is designed for individuals with Autism, Down Syndrome, ALS, apraxia, stroke, or other conditions that affect a person's ability to use natural speech.
TouchChat gives an individual the ability to choose a vocabulary file which consists of pages and buttons that contain words, phrases, sentences, and other functions. Messages are spoken with a built-in voice synthesizer or by playing a recorded message. Various synthesized and custom voice options are available, allowing the user to choose a voice that fits their own personality.
Various vocabulary files are included in English, French, and Spanish. Visit our website for a full list of options.
The Upgrade Store provides additional in-app purchases, including the WordPower® series of AAC vocabularies designed by Nancy Inman. WordPower is a word-based vocabulary that allows for easy and intuitive communication and is available in English, Spanish, and French. The Upgrade Store also provides English vocabularies files (Gateway©, Pixon®60 and Talk About AAC), language packs including vocabulary files and synthesized voices (Hebrew and Arabic), services, and symbol libraries.
Vocabulary files within TouchChat are fully customizable, including pages, grid layout, buttons, messages, and symbols. Select from over 45 button actions and nearly 40,000 Symbolstix® symbols* when creating new buttons. You can also choose to use an existing image or take a photo with the built-in camera. Additionally, gestures can be used to navigate to new pages, speak messages, etc.
*Please note: PCS© symbols can only be used in TouchChat after an in-app purchase is completed.
Button activation timing can be adjusted to meet the needs and capabilities of the user. Adjustments include button dwell time and button release time. Buttons can also be configured to activate on release.
Additional access methods such as scanning, head tracking, and eye tracking may be available based on device model and may require an additional hardware purchase.
Text generated with TouchChat can be shared on social media or via iMessage® and email using a wireless connection. Generate a message, push on the text window, and choose a service. Additionally, text can be copied to/from TouchChat and other applications so it can be spoken out loud.
Users can program buttons to play audio files such as music from the media library or videos from the device or a YouTube™ link.
Once programming is complete, vocabulary files can be imported and exported through AirDrop, email, iTunes® file sharing, DropBox™ or Google Drive™. TouchChat also enables users to subscribe to iShare and store custom files for safe keeping (not available to customers residing in the European Union).

TouchChat HD - AAC Pros
✓ Good alternative to Proloquo2Go. For now...I've had TouchChat since it's initial release. It has DEFINITELY gotten more solid as time has gone by and it is finally stable enough where I would feel comfortable recommending it. Still, I can't help feel like something is missing and, at the end of the day, I recommend P2Go nine out of ten times. The Pros: - Extremely customizable - can change individual background cells, assign actions to buttons, modify font (size, color, placement), put buttons wherever you want - Modest price point (cheaper than Proloquo2Go and Speak4Yourself) - Made by a reputable company who has a long history of making AAC devices. - Has fixed a LOT of bugs in recent versions and now, finally, appears stable. - Comes with several pre-done vocab sets (although, truth be told, I always start from scratch anyway, so having vocab sets included doesn't mean a whole lot to me…) The Cons: - Quality of the SymbolStix icons is bafflingly bad! Especially compared to Proloquo2Go, the SymbolStix simply don't look great in any version of TouchChat - Having to purchase separate versions for iPad and iPod (unless you want to scale up the iPod version) is unfortunate, especially when many families have both iPods and iPads. - SO many options to customize may turn people off. - Addition of WordPower vocab doubles the price of the app. it's worth noting that one of TouchChat's greatest advantages over Proloquo2Go (it's ability to be customized) will be neutralized once Proloquo2Go 2.0 comes out. At that time, one of the most convincing reasons to select TouchChat will now be eliminated..Version: 1.2.2
✓ Great appLove this app. Very functional and usable. I would recommend this app as a communication tool, however it freezes and needs to be shut down and rebooted every hour or so, this is very frustrating for the child! Would love it if there was an option to have the sentence spoken as a whole in the users recorded voice instead of the robot/automated voice..Version: 1.4.6
✓ TouchChat HD - AAC Positive ReviewsTouchChat HD - AAC Cons
✗ Not worth the moneyDisappointed with this purchase as it only works on the iPad. For the price there are better apps out there that only cost a little more that are compatable across mutiple devices and have way better reviews. Also the lack of the picture in addition to the word going up into the sentence strip is a major drawback. When I did deal with Customer Service they were less than helpful..Version: 1.3.3
✗ Good app / terrible policyWe use this app on our daughters iPad, it works pretty well. I wanted to add the app to my phone for a more mobile option and the company wants another $300 for the iPhone app... What a joke! I can't recommend this app - use ProLo, at least their app works on both iPad and iPhone and they don't try to charge you twice. I gave the company the opportunity to make it right and their support and answers were a joke, they tried to blame Apple. In the very least, if you purchased the $300 iPad app, they should offer a credit for the same iPhone app..Version: 1.4.4
