This app is an indispensible tool in my speech-language therapy sessions. It grabs my students' attention like nothing else I have ever tried. The app allows us to refine the students' clarity and language structure before recording. To hear the finished conversation, minus the prompting and cues, is a wonderful experience for the children, their parents and myself. My students are so excited to use this app and ask to do one conversation after the other. Carryover of learned skills has already been witnessed after a couple sessions!

This app is the best one yet!! I have used it with a few students with ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) along with students with language impairments. I used it mostly with grades 1-2, but also tried it with some high school students. The high school students liked it just as much as the little ones did! This app is helpful for many of my students AND THEY LOVE USING THE APP!!! They love to listen to their own voices. Even more, they love that someone is having a conversation with them! One student said "is that real?" I love all of the different photo themes. I find this app helpful for general vocabulary development as well as conversation skills. I even find it useful for my students with articulation impairments who are working on sentence production. The different levels are helpful. Some students need the multiple choices of level one. Other students are ready for open-ended conversation turns. It is so interesting to compare the responses of my students with ASD to students who do not have difficulty with conversation. I will definitely be using this app often! Kudos to this app developer for all of his "Builder" apps!!

I bought this on Sunday and used it right away on Monday with a 4th grade student who has high functioning autism. The conversational choices are excellent. The students must discriminate between very subtle differences that are difficult to teach and which can negatively or positively impact a conversation. The choices offer opportunities to discuss with students what makes one response OK and another one not OK. The pictures of real kids doing real activities, and the great kid voices make the conversations so believable and natural. It's very helpful for the students to hear their own voices as a part of a well-executed conversation. This is a "must-have" app for anyone who wants to help a child with conversational skills!

As an SLP, I'm constantly searching for appropriate apps to recommend for my clients and to use in speech/language therapy. The Mobile Education Store apps are some of the best that I have used in the past two years since purchasing my iPhone. This new one is especially pertinent to those with Asperger's Syndrome or anyone who has difficulty with conversational skills. It is easy to use, it has an excellent information page and is most enjoyable for students of all ages. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!

I'm an slp in the schools, and it doesn't get much better than this! I could hear the cogs clicking when i did this with my students. Great pictures, voices, and topics. Age appropriate for kids 5-11ish, I'm looking forward to more expanded to the older age groups!

I have two kids with autism. I can't say enough good things about these apps. The newest is my favorite. Knowing what to say in a conversation is so hard for kids with autism. I also like the fact that unlike a lot of special needs apps this one is helpful and affordable. Keep up the great work!

This application is amazing. My daughter is verbal, but she has struggled to understand how to converse with her peers, and this application is teaching her how conversations should flow in a visual format. In the short time we have played, she has already made great improvement in her understanding of what to say and when to say it. She loves the record feature and hearing the entire conversation played back to her with her voice interlaced with the person she is talking to. Conversations are such an important part of life, and this application is helping her in an immeasurable way.

I've been using this app with my mild-mod SDC students. I love this app. First off, it teaches turn taking in conversation. This is great because some of my students will continue to talk without waiting for their communication partner to even respond. It provides the students with visual feedback and carrier phrases to use during the conversation. It also gives clues on when the student should transition into another topic. I love that I am able to save the conversations and even email them to the parents if I wanted to. Great job with this new app.Shonia Porter, M.A., CCC-SLP

I am a special education teacher and I've been using this app with a student who struggles with social interactions. This has worked well with him. He loves recording his own voice and listening to the conversation. This has has been great, not only for the social stories, but to also have a dialog with this student. I especially like that I can use it for more than one student and customize it to fit specific areas of need. I would ask that you add audio for those students who cannot read the sentences themselves. This will allow for independent review and repetition.Some suggestions for future modules: how to order food, make a 911 call, make a regular telephone call, how to ask for directions.

I love your new app. Turn taking and reciprocal conversations are difficult and this makes it easier. This is intuitive and a great way to practice peer interaction in an engaging way. The children's voices are exceptional and the pictures are of real life scenarios. The ability to save conversations and email them is a great way to reinforce skills from home to school. This is a nice addition to my other Builder apps. I like the ability to add other conversational modules to the standard module. Any plans to add your own pictures and/or make a version for older students?
