“Users can open Proloquo2Go and begin to use it for effective communication immediately.” – Susan Berkowitz, MS-SLP, AAC Consultant.
Proloquo2Go is one of the few AAC apps that covers all users, from beginning to advanced communicators, while catering for a wide range of fine-motor, visual and cognitive skills
Our health app review: This app is simple and works really well. It is an excellent tool for AAC. We have found that for some of our patients the AAC options available have been really expensive. This has worked just as well and is a fraction of the cost of some of the other systems available. It works best for those patients with AAC needs who are the more communicative end of the spectrum. We have also found it useful as a rehabilitation or therapy tool.

A useful app but expensive. Patients need to have good language and cognitive skills to be able to use this app. I have often used this app as a therapy activity rather than a communication tool.
