Visuals2Go Reviews

If Visuals2Go is meant to help with speech, then the user should NOT be limited to two sentence words. Thankfully I’m only on the mild side of the spectrum (asd)

Allows me to talk to my son on my iPad but doesn’t acknowledge any subscription on your phone. I paid $60 dollars for the year. Hmmm...

Not useful for adults or people who want grammatically correct sentences.

The free version doesn't let you use enough to be able to tell if the person will be able to utilize it. For example I can't even see what the choice board is. Also double tapping is a hard skill for many people who need this kind of device.

It serves its purpose but the default voice doesn’t annunciate certain syllables like the letter R so I was hoping to change it. Keeps crashing when I open voice settings.

We use Visuals2Go, got monthly subscription for my 8 yo autistic son, the down part of it is the glider option which is recently added, it is so frustrating, even not touched pictures get so large that 4 pictures occupy whole I pad screen, I have emailed twice but no response wish they had option to lock the glider.

I'm so glad to find Visuals2Go! I am able to make text or picture cards, with simple font, my own photos, and record in my child's voice. I am able to save them in different folders, for example, IEP sight word list, Family, clothing, etc. It seems consistent with DownSEd principles, so it is fantastic for concrete visual learners such as children with T21. I haven't yet tried emailing or printing cards, so I can't yet speak to that. If I had to recommend an improvement, I like to see the "edit" function improved so that the word remains in the same order instead of being sent to the bottom of the list.

I wish the words within the sentences would become large as they are being touched or said in order the represent their visual significance in a stronger way. Little kids can only se that larger representation as you are choice making in the categories. It’s beautiful the way each word becomes large and isolated. It stimulates the visual brain. Unfortunately the demand for that is not carried through on the actual collected idea in the sentence.

Ok, I do like this for my son, but I wish it had more choices, especially for the sentence starters. He is verbal, but is learning to name more emotions, and knows a lot more, and does more activities, than are listed here.

I use Visuals2Go for PECS for my low-verbal son on the Autism Spectrum. I really enjoy the customization that you can create your own pictures with audio clips and written words. I use Visuals2Go to print picture checklists, schedules, picture (with words!) labels for toy bins, you name it. I wish Visuals2Go had more built in pictures, which is why did not give it a 5 star. It does require a bit of legwork at first; as you have to develop a 'library' of pictures that are meaningful to you and for those you use the system with.
Again, I really love that you can take photos, use pictures stored on the device and save your own audio clips. After all, everyone on the spectrum is different.

I appreciate Visuals2Go so much!!! It is well worth the price! It is extremely easy to use and I love that recording of the word or phrase is available for the pictures. I have two sons on the spectrum with one still nonverbal. Visuals2Go has allowed me to give him a voice! He is so happier seeing all the icons and options to choose from to express what he needs or wants. Many have commended me on making personal icons for him rather than using only the typical PECS icons and he loves it too. It continues to be a useful tool as new words or items come to mind. I love the air print feature as I have used it to print many times. Visuals2Go is also useful if I do not have the book with me because I can still open Visuals2Go and have him choose. Love, love, love Visuals2Go!!!

I’m an early intervention (birth-3) Speech-Language Pathologist. I decided to try Visuals2Go with a family I was working with because the little boy has autism and was blowing me away with his ability to use low tech AAC options. Within a week of introducing him to this app, he was using it to make requests! I was so impressed by how quickly he was able to start using it to effectively communicate! The support was also fantastic. We emailed questions and were responded to very quickly. Visuals2Go developer himself set up a zoom call with us to assist us further and show us some other ways to use Visuals2Go which we didn’t think of (ex: making choice boards, using first/then language, visual aids, etc.)

I like Visuals2Go

My kitty can tell me what he wants and I can even tap it for him!

This is an amazing app for all walks of life and especially for children with disabilities. Visuals2Go has great visuals in all different sizes. Get it and worth it. Great for labeling.

Visuals2Go is excellent for teaching young children language. We use it to teach young children that you have to “give to get.” Communication for our students has greatly improved. Visuals2Go is great for PECS.

Visuals2Go is a great for making your own symbols and you can also use them to make your own photos and you can also create a photo book. The cool thing is that it's very versatile and I would strongly recommend Visuals2Go to anyone who likes to make their own photos or their own symbols.

Visuals2Go is good, but by no means great. They have good visuals, but not enough topics. They also don’t have the ability to turn off scrolling, which often makes it difficult for individuals with low motor control to choose the correct picture. Also, Visuals2Go keeps crashing after I have updated it.

I am a PT Student, and we had an assignment to look up an application for assistive technology. this app is what I chose! This application was extremely simple to use, and had step by step instructions in multiple places if something could not be figured out. The basics of the free app were still extremely helpful, useful, and relevant for every day activities. The sentences were easy to form, but also easy to edit. The communication device is easy enough for a child to learn, or an adult with a learning disability to use. Visuals2Go could be very beneficial to clients that have trouble communicating l, and could open lots of doors to social interaction in many ways.

I am so impressed with the customer service and dedication. I actually contacted the company, because my daughters favorite food item was not on Visuals2Go . They added it, but you needed a subscription. I emailed them a second time, and asked if they could add it for individual (one time) purchase, since we are just trying Visuals2Go out at this time.
They actually honored that request as well. I am blown away by how much they care, to respond so quickly, and then honor 2 requests. Especially when they could have just told me I needed to subscribe, but they were sympathetic to the fact I’m trying different things out to see what works for my daughter.
I really recommend trying Visuals2Go.
