About MyVoice - Tap or Type to Talk

MyVoice is an AAC (augmentative and alternative communication) app for people whose speech doesn't come easily. Tap a symbol to speak it, drag words together to build a sentence, or switch to the keyboard and type. One screen, no menus to hunt through. Everything happens on your device. No account, no cloud, no subscription. Pay once. Switch Scanning For anyone who can't reliably touch a specific spot on screen. A highlight moves across the board. One action selects it: a tap anywhere on the screen, or a press of a connected switch. Scanning works in two levels, group then item, so items are reached quickly. The board follows the highlight, so what's selected is always in view. Caregivers set the scan speed and how many times it loops in Settings. One tap exits. Core Vocabulary A board of about 80 of the words people use most: I, you, want, go, stop, more, help, not, like, what. They stay in the same positions every time, so they become second nature. Gently color-coded by word type. Tap words to build a sentence, then speak it with one tap. It's the way speech-language pathologists teach language. Smart Suggestions As you build a sentence, MyVoice offers full, natural phrases above the board. Tap one to say it instantly. Two kinds: Your tapped words, turned into a complete sentence. "Want water" becomes "I want water." Phrases you've said before, brought back when they fit what you're building. The more you use a phrase, the faster it returns. Suggestions never speak on their own. The app only says what you tap. Turn them on or off anytime with a single switch in Settings. Type to Talk Type anything and hear it spoken. As you type, suggested words and completions appear above the keyboard, drawn from your own past phrases and on-device prediction. Big, easy targets. Tap one to drop it in. Far fewer keystrokes. Speak Personal Voice: speak in a recording of your own voice, created and stored privately on your device. Built-in system voices with adjustable speed, pitch, and volume. Speaks aloud even when the phone is on silent. Symbols and personalization More than a dozen ready-made boards: Quick Talk, Emotions, Actions, Food & Drink, Family, Body, Animals, School, Places, and more. Color-coded and full of clear symbols. Save any phrase as a tile with a suggested emoji, an emoji you pick, or a real photo from your library or camera. Create, rename, recolor, and reorder your own categories. Add, edit, reorder, and delete tiles. Recents keeps recently spoken phrases one tap away. Fit the board to the person Button Size: small, medium, or large. Show or Hide Labels: symbol-only tiles for pre-readers, with more room for the picture. For families and classrooms Edit Lock: require a passcode to open Edit and Settings, so a child or student can't rearrange the board or change the voice by accident. Speaking always stays available. Forgot the code? Reset it with a deliberate 5-second hold. Your boards, tiles, and settings stay exactly as they are. Look & Read Point the camera and tap the shutter. MyVoice recognizes objects and reads printed text like menus, signs, and labels, then surfaces them as tappable cards to hear aloud. Private by design Voices, phrases, photos, and predictions stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded, and there's nothing to sign into.

What’s new

Version 4.1.0 · Updated August 4, 2026

Switch Scanning is for anyone who can't reliably touch a specific spot on screen. MyVoice moves a highlight across the board, and one action selects whatever is highlighted: a tap anywhere on the screen, or a press of a connected switch. It scans in two levels, group then item, so items are reached quickly, and the board follows the highlight so it stays in view. Turn it on in Settings, set the scan speed and how many times it loops, and exit with one tap. The new Core Vocabulary board holds about 80 of the words people use most: I, you, want, go, stop, more, help, not, like, what. They stay in the same positions every time, so they become second nature, and they're color-coded by word type. Tap words to build a sentence, then speak it with one tap. For people who type to talk, the keyboard now suggests words and completions as you go, drawn from your own past phrases and on-device prediction. The targets are large and easy to hit. Tap one to drop it in. Two new Settings fit the board to the person using it. Button Size can be small, medium, or large. Show or Hide Labels gives you bigger, symbol-only tiles for pre-readers. Edit Lock lets caregivers and teachers require a passcode to open Edit and Settings, so boards, tiles, and voices can't be changed by accident. Speaking always stays available. If you forget the code, a Forgot Passcode option resets it with a deliberate 5-second hold, and your boards, tiles, and settings stay exactly as they are. This release also cleans up the suggestion chips and the scanning highlights.
