LetMeTalk

What LetMeTalk is

LetMeTalk is a free AAC app for arranging images into sentences and communicating them with voice output. It includes more than 9,000 images from ARASAAC, and users can create unlimited categories, add images, or take photos with a device camera. Vocabulary profiles can be saved, with several profiles kept on one device; users can switch between them and share profiles with other devices. The listing names 18 supported languages, including English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese, Arabic, and Russian. The app can be used without an internet connection or mobile contract. It is listed for Android and iOS, with iPhone and iPad also named as supported devices. The listing says it is suitable for people with conditions including autism spectrum disorder, aphasia, speech apraxia, articulation or phonological disorder, ALS, MND, cerebral palsy, and Down syndrome. Tutorials are available through LetMeTalk support. Apple’s listing says the developer has not provided privacy-practice or data-handling details to Apple. The Android app was removed from Google Play on December 15, 2021 and is no longer available there.
