    Proloquo2Go doesn’t kind for user. It is difficult for my son who is high-functioning autism and even his father who has Ph.D. in rocket science.
    My son is now trying a new app, called Voice4u.($29.99) http://v.sv4u.net/
    All you have to do is just swipe the screen, and since there aren’t so many levels through each choice, it’s really easy to use.
