Developer: Talk For Me Limited
First release : 13 Dec 2012
App size: 17.29 Mb
A multi-purpose communication tool that allows people communicate their needs by using images that they take with their iPhone and sentences they type in which are then spoken in over 20 languages.
The App can be completely customized to the needs of the individual and can be setup to contain relevant user defined groups of pictures and sentences which can be vocalized and translated into a number of languages.
Users of this App include those who regularly travel to other countries and people who have speech/learning difficulties.
The basic idea is that the user can add as many pictures and sentences as they wish and organize them into relevant groups. The user can then call on this vast library of content to communicate their message to another person. They do this by clicking on an item which consists of a picture and a sentence and pressing the Talk button. This sentence is then spoken for the benefit of the listener. The user can choose different languages to repeat the sentence depending on geographic location.
