Picture Communication System, iPhone-Sized

iPACSApp a Day: Up on this second day of my special-needs app-a-(week)day January is another app that has received a rave reader review: iPACS. Wrote SusanA about the $9.99 picture communication system from AdastraSoft: "iPACS is great. You can use the camera or download pictures from the Internet combined with label and voice to create a great communication system. There are 6 images per page to choose from. The images are quite small which is challenging visually and motorically, but it's easy enough to open up one image and have it cover the entire screen. I use one image with my son to show him what we are doing or have him choose something and he simply runs his finger down the screen to activate the voice. It's great because we always have something with us to help with communication." If you've used iPACS, fill out a review form to add your own take -- or to share another app we should know about.
