InnerVoice: AAC for Autism7.0.7 - App Store

Their voice. Their words. More ways to connect.

InnerVoice is an augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) app for iPhone and iPad. Bring familiar boards to life with speech, find words for real moments and practice conversations. For autistic and nonspeaking communicators, families, educators and speech-language professionals.

BUILD ON THE BOARD THEY KNOW
With Full Access, photograph a paper communication board or import a board image to create an editable talking board. Review the recognized words and layout, make corrections, and save the board for everyday use. Recognition depends on image quality and board complexity.

WORDS FOR THE MOMENT
Full Access includes Scene Talk photo analysis, AI-assisted board creation and changes, image generation, and advanced voices. Use a photo to explore vocabulary for the moment, or ask for a board change in everyday language. You remain in control of the message.

CONVERSATION PRACTICE
Practice with a responsive AI conversation partner using words from the current board. Full Access cloud Chat supports conversation practice; it is not a human clinician or a substitute for professional support.

GOALS AND COMMUNICATION EVIDENCE
Full Access includes goals, communication evidence, timestamped language samples, and EASI export. Review recorded evidence with the people supporting the communicator. InnerVoice does not diagnose conditions or independently determine that a clinical goal has been met.

CHOOSE MONTHLY OR ANNUAL
Monthly Full Access is the recommended option with a lower upfront payment. Annual Full Access is billed yearly and can offer savings compared with twelve monthly payments. Both plans unlock the same premium features. The app and Apple's purchase sheet show your local price and any available introductory offer before you confirm.

Eligible subscribers can start a seven-day free trial through Apple's purchase sheet. Apple determines eligibility. After the trial, the selected subscription automatically renews at the displayed monthly or annual price unless canceled at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Subsequent renewals continue unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in Apple Account settings. Cloud features require an internet connection and are subject to usage allowances.

BASIC AND HISTORICAL LIFETIME ACCESS
You can deliberately choose Basic without subscribing. Keep saved boards, manually create and edit boards, add your own still photos, use free on-device voices, and use rudimentary local chat. Historical lifetime purchasers retain these core tools and can restore their purchase. Basic and lifetime access do not include premium AI, cloud services, advanced voices, goals, tracking, or transcript export.

YOUR BOARDS AND PRIVACY
Saved boards remain available when a subscription ends. Basic stores board work locally. Subscribers may back up boards to their own iCloud. Premium cloud features send the information needed for the requested function; see the Privacy Policy for details.

InnerVoice is a communication support tool, not a medical device. The communicator, family, and professionals retain control of goals, supports, and interpretation.

Version History InnerVoice 7.0.7

Scene Talk is easier to use while typing. Photo controls stay clear of your picture, the input stays above the keyboard, and long replies scroll within the conversation area.

Voice previews now play when you choose to hear them, instead of automatically when you change settings.

This update improves the transition to Full Access after an Apple-confirmed trial or subscription and makes usage-allowance messages clearer.

Update, open InnerVoice, and choose an available seven-day trial through Apple's purchase sheet. Apple determines eligibility and shows your local subscription price before you confirm. Updating alone does not start a trial. Core AAC remains available without a subscription, and existing lifetime purchasers retain their core tools.

New users receive Full Access to 13 natural-sounding neural voices, Chat, Scene Talk, image generation, photo-to-board, Board Mirror, personalized avatars, goal tracking, and language-sample export, subject to trial limits.

After 7 days, continue Full Access with a monthly or annual subscription. This update also improves speech playback and on-device voice fallback. 7.0.1 Aug 6 Version 7.0
