Features
3 modes:
- "Listen": match an auditory stimulus (spoken word) to a picture
- "Read": match a written stimulus (printed word) to a picture
- "Listen & Read": match an auditory stimulus (spoken word) to a written word
Over 700 clear full-color photographs of functional vocabulary selected by a Speech-Language Pathologist
10 categories of nouns including animals, foods, objects, concepts, places, people, body parts and more; select which categories are targeted
Select from 2, 3, 4, or 6 photos on the screen or use the "Auto" feature to automatically adjust the field size based on performance
3 levels of difficulty adjust the relatedness of foils (semantic and phonemic) to move from Easy to Hard
Aphasia-friendly interface avoids use of professional jargon and features clear symbols for independent use by children and adults
Child-friendly mode eliminates references to alcohol and violence as well as disables links to outside sites (iTunes & social media)
Real recorded voice provides 4 choices of languages with neutral accent in slow, natural speech for easy comprehension in English (US/Canada), English (UK), Spanish, and French
Client can initiate a repetition of the stimulus as they need it in “Listen” and “Listen&Read” modes
Smooth and automatic transitions to the next set allow for multiple repetitions in far less time than it takes to select and lay out photo flash cards
Automatic scoring tracks success and progress on-screen
Results can be e-mailed in table and report-ready format so clients can keep their therapist informed of their progress for telepractice and therapists can send results to themselves for charting later, using the copy-and-paste ready format to decrease documentation time

Customer Reviews
Comprehension TherAppy
I use this app as an SLP in the schools. It’s very flexible so it can be adjusted for each student according to need and is also nice for probing receptive vocabulary skills. The pictures are high quality photographs of FUNCTIONAL vocabulary. The options for customization include difficulty, number of trials, child-friendly, and field size. Data collection is included and can be emailed to track progress. There are no longer in-app expansion packs available for verbs and adjectives...even better...since the last update, they are included! This is a nice app for SLPs in school or medical seeting.
