Children with autism can use their own voices in communication aid app - Published on 11/17/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

London based app developers Therapy Box released a major update to ChatAble allowing people to replace generic text to speech, with their own voices, or the voice of a peer. This latest release contains the innovative integration of ModelTalker. The app also includes new voices for added choice of quality voices and Skype integration to aid connectivity. ChatAble is available in a range of languages and is an essential aid for people with speech and language difficulties.

London, United Kingdom - Therapy Box is pleased to introduce ChatAble 2.0, the latest version of the popular app used around the world by children with autism and adults with aphasia. Available in a range of languages, the app is an essential aid for people with speech and language difficulties. The app provides a range of easy to use communication pages so that the child or adult using it can switch between grid pages, visual scene displays and hybrid pages.

This is an exciting advancement for children like Coco. Coco's mother Rachel explains, "I purchased ChatAble in an effort to help my daughter Coco start to talk again. This app is absolutely amazing and the possibilities seem endless. It is so customisable and easy to use. Coco is coming on so well since using the app for everyday things like requesting a drink or something particular to eat as well as repeating the word. I thoroughly recommend this as it now comes with Model Talker."

This latest release contains the innovative integration of ModelTalker, as launched last month in Predictable 4. The ModelTalker project is a long-term research and development effort from the Nemours Speech Research Laboratory at the Alfred I. duPont Hospital for Children in Delaware.

Rebecca Bright, co-founder of Therapy Box explains: "We are excited to deliver ModelTalker within our apps. For people who need ChatAble, this means they can use their own voice, which allows for a more personal communication aid. If someone is not able to use their own voice, they may be able to choose a friend or family member who shares the regional and age characteristics to help create a voice that is more relevant to them".

Tim Bunnell, developer of Nemours ModelTalker adds, "It is very gratifying to be able to provide ModelTalker voices on the ChatAble app. As a pediatric healthcare system with a significant special needs population, Nemours is always looking for ways to reach children who may benefit from new assistive technologies. It's exciting to see our research efforts go from the lab to the iPad."

New features:
* Integration of ModelTalker voices
* New voices from Nuance for added choice of quality voices
* Skype integration to aid connectivity
* Enhanced scanning features optimized for iOS8

Device Requirements:
* Compatible with iPad
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 729 MB

Pricing and Availability:
ChatAble 1.3 is $49.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Education category.

Veggoagogo: New App Release Gives Confidence to the Vegetarian Traveller - Published on 11/17/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Helsinki-based 2camels Publishing today announces the launch of Veggoagogo 1.0, a travel translation app for vegetarians, available on the iOS platform. The app addresses many of the needs that the travelling vegetarian faces on a daily basis, from locating a restaurant, choosing suitable items from the menu and more. The user simply chooses a question from Veggoagogo, then selects the appropriate language and taps the translate button.

Helsinki, Finland - Veggoagogo aims to provide the modern vegetarian traveller with an app that lends confidence to a situation that has filled vegetarians with dread for decades; ordering vegetarian food on the road. As well as defining what a vegetarian is, Veggoagogo addresses many of the needs that the travelling vegetarian faces on a daily basis, from locating a restaurant that serves vegetarian fare, to choosing suitable items from the menu, down to thanking the chef, waiter, concierge, market-stall holder or friendly local.

Veggoagogo is intuitive and easy to use. The user simply chooses a question from those offered, then selects from one of 50 languages available before tapping the translate button and being presented with their translation. The all important translation screen text has been optimised to be displayed at a distance. It can be flicked between night and day modes, making the text easy to read in all lighting conditions.

Veggoagogo enlisted the drawing talents of illustrator, Cat MacInnnes to create a range of animal icons, that add to the usability of the app, whilst maintaining its simplicity.

Users can tap the animal icons atop the translation screen and be presented with full screen versions which can be swiped and used as a visual backup to the translated message. Users are encouraged to spice up their Veggoagogo experience to match the flavour of their current destination with one of the many preset colour themes on offer.

Paul Dodson, founder of 2Camels Publishing had this to say, "Often when travelling it's hard to get across exactly what vegetarianism is. In many countries it's a loosely defined concept where vegetarian dishes may still include fish or seafood. With Veggoagogo we aimed to do two things: one, define what a vegetarian will and won't eat and two, offer a range of questions that travelling vegetarians face on a daily basis. In version 1.0 of Veggoagogo, we do this in 50 languages. Veggoagogo has been designed with simplicity and usability in mind. The interface is uncluttered and hopefully, aesthetically pleasing. All of our translations have been professionally completed by native language speakers".

Veggoagogo is the first of a number of travel translation apps designed to use the same application architecture. Local language versions of Veggoagogo are available in: English, Arabic, Chinese (Simplified), French, Hindi, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish.All text translations were completed by Translated.

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Optimized for iPhone�5, iPhone�6, and iPhone�6�Plus
* Requires iOS 7.1 or later
* 26.8 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Veggoagogo 1.0 is priced at $2.99 USD/Euro2.69 EUR (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Travel category. An Android version of Veggoagogo is currently in development. To learn more about Veggoagogo, please field first inquiries via email to Paul Dodson at the website.

Word game meets language learning in the new iOS app Mind the Gap - Published on 11/18/14

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

The German App label science-to-touch announced the release of Mind The Gap, a new word game and English language learning app. Mind The Gap focuses on a holistic approach to language. It challenges its users to reconstruct word fragments in authentic English texts. The iOS app crosses the borders of word game and language learning tool. Mind the Gap offers crossword puzzle like texts that, besides being a challenge on its own, help its user to gradually improve his or her language skills.

Munich, Germany - "Mind the Gap" is a new language learning app created by the German label science-to-touch. The app intentionally links two genres: word game and language learning app. On the one hand it is a puzzle type word game similar to popular word guessing games. The main difference: Missing words are to be guessed from their authentic context. The app offers hints, and can be played without time pressure or in an arcade mode.

On the other hand the app is designed to improve the users comprehension ability and the competence to construct popular and authentic english language patterns. The app is based on a collection of over 500 hand-selected texts coming from different areas such as science, sports, art, music, literature and many more. The texts cover trivia and interesting facts from many different areas of human culture, life and science. The main task is to fill in missing parts of words and to reconstruct the original text by this. The percentage of destroyed words varies from 30% in the entry levels to 90% in advanced levels. Mind the Gap hereby enforces an idiomatic language use as it tackles almost all potential trouble zones of language learning from grammar to vocabulary.

"The app is a father-daughter co-production that originated from the desire for training material for so called cloze-tests, which are frequently used to test and train the language abilities of students. During development of 'Mind the Gap' we made the experience that finding the right insertions for missing words sometimes requires Sherlock Holmes like reconstruction abilities and can become a really entertaining task" says Professor Richter-Gebert, one of the two developers of the iOS app. As the author of several award winning software projects designed for the general public he has become an expert in combining authentic content with a fun, relaxing or challenging user experience. In 2012 Professor Richter-Gebert launched the creative geometry drawing app "iOrnament", which is rated 5 stars on the App Store in 14 countries.

The main features of the app include:
* Word guessing in authentic english texts
* Animated hints by removing letters form the keyboard
* Huge database of 550 texts
* Interesting trivia from all parts of human culture, life and science
* Arcade mode with idioms, proverbs and common sayings
* Automatic correction of results
* Built-in access to language dictionary
* Personalized statistics of success
* Full game center integration
* Color themes
* Integrated Help functions

"Turning a serious test scenario into a fun game was the greatest challenge. We included fun elements as for example a Tetris like arcade mode in which you must reconstruct idioms, proverbs and common sayings under time pressure. You must try to survive as long as you can and crack new high scores. Working on up to seven sentences at the same time really challenges your multitasking skills" comments Angela Gebert, second year English student and co-producer of the app.

Mind the Gap combines a fresh and motivating learning environment with an effective, casual learning method for every day. Each of the topics is decorated with hand drawn sketches, that create an atmospheric entry to the specific topic. "Mind the Gap is dedicated to all language lovers looking for a challenging high quality timekiller-app and to everyone who seeks for an easy way to improve his or her English step by step" concludes the app author Professor Richter-Gebert.

Device Requirements:
* iPad, iPhone and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 6.0 or later
* 53.3 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Mind the Gap 1.1 is $1.99 USD (or equivalent amount in other currencies) and available worldwide exclusively through the iTunes App Store in the Games category.

It is a collection of projects which are aimed at interactive visualization of science. The basic philosophy behind the project is that visualization and interactivity makes science accessible, understandable and fun. The iOrnament App is the first release of Science-to-touch.
