What it is
SymboTalk is an augmentative and alternative communication system for communicating through symbols on boards. Selecting symbols can produce spoken output and build a sentence that can also be spoken. Users can create symbols or choose from an online library of more than 60,000 images, including ARASAAC, Mulberry, and Sclera symbols. Boards can include sub-boards and different grid options. Profiles let editors configure boards for users, who can use a limited-access “me” mode. The system is designed for people whose physical or mental condition makes speaking difficult, including people with autism, Down syndrome, ALS, apraxia, or stroke. SymboTalk is available on Android and the web, and the Android app supports offline use. Core app features are free; sharing, synchronization, and backup through cloud features are paid. The app listing also describes a ChatGPT integration and an AI Assistant that can generate full boards. Google Play reports that the developer declares no data shared with third parties, but the app may collect personal information, app information and performance, and device or other IDs; it also reports that data is not encrypted and cannot be deleted.
