iInteract: Communication Board
iOS Universel / Education
iInteract is a free communication board for children with autism, apraxia, Down syndrome, and other communication needs. Tap a picture, hear the word out loud — clear, simple, and built to grow with your child.
WHO IT'S FOR
Parents, therapists, special-education teachers, and speech-language pathologists working with emerging communicators. Designed with — and used by — families of children with autism, apraxia, Down syndrome, and other communication needs.
iInteract is the result of two longtime educators (with 20+ years of special-education experience) collaborating with a software engineer to build the tool they wished they had.
— GET STARTED IN SECONDS —
Seven ready-made panels — feelings, needs, and everyday activities — are there the moment you open the app.
— MAKE IT YOUR OWN —
Fresh installs start in Customize, so you can add your own panels right away. Three ways to use the app:
• Customize — add your own panels with your own photos and recorded voice
• Configurable — hide the panels you don't use and reorder the rest
• Default — bundled panels only, nothing changes
For every picture, snap a photo, choose from your library, or import an image file — including AAC symbols you already own.
BOY OR GIRL VOICE
Record a boy voice, a girl voice, or both for every picture.
KEEP THE SCREEN ON
1, 5, or 10 minutes — or "until I leave the app" — for kids who study the board for a while.
— JUST FOR PARENTS —
PRIVATE PARENT SETTINGS
Press and hold the "iInteract" title to open settings — your child can't tap their way in, and the app returns to kid view on its own after 10 minutes. Prefer a button? Switch to a visible gear icon instead.
OPTIONAL PIN
Add a 4-digit PIN for extra protection. Forgot it? Answer your security question and the PIN clears — no need to delete and reinstall.
UNDO MISTAKES
Anything you delete waits 30 days in the Trash, ready to restore.
LOCK IT DOWN
Turn on "Lock Editor" in iOS Guided Access to freeze the gear icon with a single tap.
ALL YOUR DEVICES, IN SYNC
Set it up once. Your panels, voice recordings, PIN, and settings follow you across iPhone, iPad, and Mac.
— YOUR PRIVACY —
No data collection. No tracking. No accounts. Your panels, photos, and voice recordings stay on your device — and, if you opt in, in your private iCloud, where Apple sees only encrypted data it cannot open.

Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
A new way to add pictures.
• Choose from Files. When you add a picture to a board, you can now use one that's already saved on your device — a photo you've downloaded, or an AAC symbol you already own — not just your camera or photos. As always, everything you add stays private and on your device.
• Words under the pictures. Each picture can now show its word right underneath — a simple help for early readers and for parents learning the board. On by default; turn it off any time.
• A quick guided setup. Opening the app — or updating — now walks you through a few choices in about a minute. Your existing settings are already filled in, so nothing changes unless you want it to.
