Special Learning’s My First Voice 1 for the iPod Touch and iPhone is a highly effective app that is designed to allow children with Autism and other language disabilities quickly and effectively communicate their basic wants and needs using a highly attractive, simple to use icon based system. The app is filled with colorful and vivid photographs of everyday items that a child sees around him to facilitate easy communication and to keep a child engaged and motivated to use the device.



My First Voice 1 app provides extensive customization and reporting functions. Through its web interface, Mobile Dashboard, parents and providers can fully customize the app by uploading their own image and voice files. They can also run reports to track frequency data from the device by synchronizing the app with the mobile dashboard.



This app was developed under the guidance of Board Certified Behavior Analysts (BCBAs) and organized in a manner found to be successful in practice.



Key features of the App include:



* Highly intuitive and kid friendly interface : The interface was designed specifically for use of children with ASD. It offers very simple navigation and is colorful and intuitive, making it easy for children to learn and use without a lot of instructions.



* Variation : The App contains three different photographs of every item in each of the five main categories to allow therapists to teach generalization skills to children that are ready to learn these skills.



* Versatility : Within the four categories of food, drinks, clothing and toys, caretakers can customize the items on the device by using the enable/disable function in the "Icon Library" to select only those items that are appropriate for their child.



* App Customization. Through the "Settings" field in the "Admin" section, the app offers an abundance of customization features including:



1) Four "Voice" options;

2) Five "Themes" or backgrounds: default, aquatic, butterfly, creatures, and trucks;

3) Three "Picture Size" options: small, and large;

4) Ability to choose "Word" or "Phrase" for emotions icons;

5) Ability to enable or disable "Item Titles" which appear on top of each icon



My First Voice 1 has several important additional features:


Through Special Learning’s Mobile Dashboard, a powerful web-based portal, users can further customize the numerous features already available on the app, such as:


* Enabling users upload their own image and voice files to replace or modify the pre-loaded images


* Store and download statistical data and run queries by time and data ranges in both chart and graphic formats.


* Manage all purchased apps from Special Learning.
