***Try it for FREE by downloading Language Therapy Lite***

This app has 4 parts:
1) Naming Practice: 400+ pictured nouns with an evidence-based cueing hierarchy and optional self-scoring, with the option to add your own photos and cues. The app records which cue was used to get the correct answer and produces a score report for email. Use different cues within Naming Practice to target confrontation naming, responsive naming, phrase completion, repetition, and oral reading.

2) Describe: 580+ pictures with 4-6 semantic & 4 phonemic question prompts for semantic feature analysis, phonological components analysis, and expanding expression skills. You can add your own words and select from 25 prompts to go with them. Icons representing questions prompting for information about the appearance, category, function, shape, size, colour, taste, location and more surround each picture. Target sound knowledge by hearing prompts for first and last sound, rhyming words, and syllables.

3) Naming Test: a set presentation of 30 pictures with scoring and a report. This is a non-standardised test intended for screening a person's ability to name common items. It contains common and less common items of the categories contained in this app. A perfect screener!

4) Flashcards: 700+ clear, full-colour pictures including verbs and adjectives; touch to hear the spoken word or see the printed word with the ability to add your own pictures. Use the verb pictures to create sentences or implement response elaboration training.

Features:
*Real recorded male voice provides a neutral accent in 5 languages with slow, natural speech for easy comprehension
*Limit words by syllable length to just practice the short ones or target the longer ones - perfect for apraxia
*Database controls let you turn each word on or off within the app, so you can customise even further
*Tap is the only motion required - no dragging, swiping or pinching needed for new users and those with motor impairment

NO in-app purchase and NO collection or sharing of private information.

Ratings and reviews

An absolutely wonderful program. I purchased it for supplemental speech therapy for my wife who had a severe stroke, which seriously effected her ability to speak and recognize written words. The flexibility of this program is perfect. She can choose to hear and see descriptive cue words simultaneously. This alone has advanced her skills 10 fold ! Not to mention her favorite part, which is adding her own favorite photos along with text and auditory cues ! Outstanding feature ! She absolutely loves the program and how it empowers her to work at her leisure, focusing on the skills which she needs, but cannot fit into the 2 Speech therapy sessions allowed weekly. I highly recommend this app. For the price, we couldn't be happier.

It says will be installed shortly. That was 9 days ago and still nothing installed.

Great addition to our at home therapy curriculum. Hoping that Conversation Therapy for android is available soon.
