iPrompts®: The original picture-based prompting app for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad!
Thousands of caregivers use iPrompts® to provide visual support for those with language and behavioral challenges, including autism and ADD/ADHD. Acclaimed in news stories around the world, iPrompts® also works great with typical kids!
At $49.99, iPrompts® is hundreds of dollars less expensive than DynaVox Mayer-Johnson’s Boardmaker® v.6. And, 10% of all iPrompts® sales benefit Autism Speaks™, the nation's largest autism science and advocacy organization.
iPrompts® offers many innovative advantages over traditional Velcro®-backed picture cards:
- Create visual prompts “on-the-go,” adapting quickly as situations change. No need to spend hours creating image cards by printing, cutting and laminating.
- No bulky or stigmatizing binders or strips of images.
- Store thousands of images in your pocket. Add your own pictures to the hundreds of stock images included within iPrompts®.
- Electronically backlit images are bright and visible any time of day or night.
- Paperless and environmentally friendly.
iPrompts® includes several easy-to-use, visual prompting templates (no audio prompts or voice output) to help individuals transition from one activity to the next, understand upcoming events, make choices, and focus on the task at hand:
PICTURE SCHEDULES: Allows caregivers to create sequences of pictures, guiding those they care for through activities of any sort. Captions can be edited for each image, allowing users to create SOCIAL STORIES. Caregivers can also create simple FIRST THIS, THEN THAT picture prompts using only two images. Choose from hundreds of stock photos and illustrations provided by iPrompts®, add your own digital pictures (e.g., “on the fly” using the iPhone’s built-in camera), or add a picture from a Web-enabled search, all from right within the app!
VISUAL COUNTDOWN TIMER: Displays an image of the caregiver’s choice along with a graphical countdown timer (set to any duration). Useful for demonstrating how much time is left before the next pictured activity begins.
CHOICE PROMPTS: Lets caregivers present choices between images, empowering those who cannot vocalize their preferences. When rotated horizontally, the Choice Prompt and Picture Schedule features enlarge and orient images for display to individuals needing visual support. Multiple sets of choices may be created and saved.
IMAGE LIBRARY: Our “starter” library includes hundreds of useful illustrations and digital pictures across many categories. Additional categories and pictures may be supplied by users. Users may also duplicate or delete images, and edit their captions.
Searching the Library optionally brings up both “local” results images from the Web, which may then be saved permanently -- this puts billions of images at the fingertips of all iPrompts® caregivers!
