Add custom images to your schedules by using the iPhone’s built in camera, the built in Internet image feature or download images from your personal computer and save onto the “camera roll” album for future use in other schedules.
Voice can be recorded and a message added to the images to help further reinforce schedule and to aid with receptive and expressive language acquisition. |
This option allows the user to go into the settings feature of the iPhone and enable a “checklist option”. User can now touch a small white check at the corner of an image that will then place a larger check on the image and fade the image. |
