Amazing app. The best free app of this type for people who don't use words to speak. I love how every picture card has editable text. I also love how each picture card is voiced.
★★★★★Percy Felts· Oct 10, 2021
I have only recently started exploring the app, but I really like it so far. It is different from the other AAC app I use because it is folder/category based while my other AAC app is motor planning based. I like the text to speech option and the ability to choose from different templates. I also like the ability to make my own symbols. I love the voice options.

I am a beginner AAC user. Twinkl is perfect for getting a handle on AAC while I am new to it!
★★★★★Cee Jae· Oct 11, 2025
As a high Masking autistic trying out other alternative ways to communicate, this is absolutely incredible and so thorough. The only downfall is that you can only use it in landscape. I find it awkward to type landscape on a phone. Other than that, it's a fantastic app so far!!!

Saying this is an old version and needs updating but no update available. Very frustrating as we use this app for my non-verbal son
★★☆☆☆Lori· Dec 1, 2023
Love the app, but I am unable to use the app. It is saying I am using an old version 2.4.2 and need to upgrade. However, I have not seen a newer version in the app store. Help
