MyTalkTools Mobile and Workspace are free communication tools for families living with ALS and Parkinson's - fully customizable with pictures, sounds and video.
MyTalkTools Mobile and Workspace are a set of communication tools for use by families and family members with ALS and Parkinson's. Our tools allow for communication that is completely customizable, helping users communicate with pictures, sounds and videos. MyTalkTools lets you use your own personal pictures and voices to express messages, needs and desires - easy for family members to program, and easy for your loved ones to use.
For anyone dealing with the eventual loss of their voice, but still able to speak now, MyTalkTools offers the ability to bank messages in your own voice. If a message is a daily routine like "please pass the pepper," a digital voice works fine - but for something personal and unique to you or your loved ones, say it in your own voice, with your own tone and inflection, to be used later when your voice is no longer as available. While you create those messages, we keep them stored safely in addition to on your device.
MyTalkTools offers many options, and everything - the full mobile apps and Workspace - is free.
Get MyTalkTools Mobile - the full version, not a limited edition - from the App Store or Google Play.
Watch the tutorial videos, create your user name, and download the "Adult" sample content to begin customizing.
You and other family members also get free access to Workspace, our web-based board-building tool, for remote programming.
My husband has ALS. His is bulbar onset, meaning his speech and swallowing were his first symptoms. Although his speech has changed, MyTalkTools has given him a way to keep being heard in his own voice.
I wanted to thank you for MyTalk. I have ALS and have lost my voice. I needed something that could speak for me, in a way that still felt like me.
Free on iOS, Android and the web - no credit card required.
