Clicker Communicator

Description

A VOICE FOR EVERYONE

Clicker Communicator is the definitive AAC app that gives a voice to children and young people with speech and language challenges. This is the latest addition to Crick Software’s Clicker family, developed over 20 years and used worldwide.

“The app is so user friendly and easy to customize. Personally, I think it is the BEST AAC app I have seen” – Rose Duszynski, AT Specialist

“I continue to be impressed by Crick’s ability to create functional, practical, and user-friendly software/apps for students with special needs, particularly for those with complex communication needs.” – Betsy Caporale, MS, CCC-SLP-L, AT

“I love the crisp, easy-to-use interface! The thoughtfulness of features that no other AAC apps have speaks to Crick’s continued dedication to students with special needs.” – Laura Giovanetti, CAGS, CCC-SLP, ATP

GET STARTED QUICKLY

The ready-made Vocabulary Sets are carefully constructed using color-coded, research-based core words – a proven approach for providing a rich communication experience and developing language skills. The three levels, Clicker Core 1, 2, and 3, cover a wide ability range and use consistent layouts to optimize motor-mapping and enable children to progress from one level to the next.

CREATE AND EDIT IN MINUTES

Clicker Communicator works in the same intuitive way as all the Clicker Apps, enabling you to meet the particular needs of your learners by editing the ready-made Vocabulary Sets or creating your own. Personalize every last detail by adding photos, colors, and topics, and repositioning cells. And you won’t find a faster way of searching and selecting symbols anywhere!

DESIGNED FOR CHILDREN

We’ve used our 20+ years of experience in developing special needs software to create an app that includes:

  • Easy to read Sassoon font
  • Realistic children’s voices
  • Child-friendly keyboard with symbol-supported predictor
  • Research-based Vocabulary Sets at three levels
  • Free curriculum-based Vocabulary Sets on LearningGrids

USE THE SYMBOLS YOU WANT (or none at all)

Clicker Communicator comes with the complete SymbolStix library of over 24,000 symbols. If you prefer the Widgit or PCS symbol sets, both are available as in-app purchases. Additional pictures are provided by the Crick Picture Library: 2,500 curriculum pictures to support a wide range of classroom topics. Or use text-only Vocabulary Sets, supported with the child-friendly keyboard.

TALK IN CLASS

Get your learners with speech challenges taking an active vocal part in the classroom. Our free LearningGrids resources provide the opportunity to respond to teaching points, participate in discussions, and ask and answer topic-based questions. Created by our curriculum team, these free online Vocabulary Sets provide access to the vocabulary your learners will meet in their curriculum topics, and provide a natural link to literacy development.

UNIQUELY ACCESSIBLE

Clicker Communicator has a wide range of accessibility options:

  • SuperKeys – our unique access method for those who need big target areas. Just tap the cluster containing the symbol you want, and then tap the symbol in the enlarged cluster.
  • No scrolling or swiping – so every tap is accepted.
  • Switch access for one and two switches.
  • Toolbars only visible when editing – all navigation is done from the grid.
  • Favorite/Recent messages and Vocabulary Sets accessible with just two taps.

SHARE AND BACKUP

There’s a Backup Safe provided within the app, and Vocabulary Sets can be shared or backed up via email, AirDrop, Dropbox, Google Drive, or WebDAV.
