Description
Spubble is aimed at assisting individuals with verbal communication issues, by allowing them to communicate using a unique and intuitive interface.
It allows the user to "speak" individual words, simply by tapping on them, and it allows for complete phrase creation by dragging the word icons to a speech bubble (or "spubble") at the top of the screen. These icons can also be removed from the spubble simply by dragging them out. The entire phrase can be heard by tapping the green "play" button to the right of the "spubble". Tapping the red "home" button on the bottom of the screen takes the user back to the main categories screen.
Spubble Lite provides 5 categories with up to 150 words:
Food
People
Places
Numbers
General (Yes, No, Thank You, You're Welcome, Left, Right, Forward, Backward, etc.)

Updates to Spubble's word library and functionality will be released frequently.
Future updates will include:
A library consisting of up to 20 categories and 3000 words
User created icons (iPhone camera to create icon images, text-to-speech software to create audio)
Device to device communication using the Spubble interface

Customer Reviews
Great app
Easy and simple to use, but need to expand the library.
Genius idea
I love this app and look forward to future updates in functionality. Great job on the icons and overall design too!
AT consultant
I think this app has great potential. It is a good start for someone new to using alternative communication methods. I would like to see the addition of the ability to add words, phrases, and pictures. At this point there is no way to edit any portion of the menu
