Symbol-It™ turns any iOS device into a speech-to-symbol translator by using the leading AAC symbol systems. Never before has it been possible to translate verbal speech to picture symbols at the speed of conversation.

We have sign language translators that provide a way for the signer to be able to learn sign language within their natural environment, but to date we have not had a way to speak in picture symbols in real time, in complete sentences, in all environments, for all different reasons, by all communication partners… until Symbol-It!

Symbol-It was designed to give you, the communication partner, a way to make language visible while engaging your symbol speaker. You speak verbally AND in picture symbols simultaneously so that the developing communicator sees the symbols and hears your speech simultaneously.

Symbol-It is changing the conversation when it comes to AAC, putting a solution for speaking in picture symbols directly into the hands of families, friends, and therapists to better communicate with the symbol speakers in their lives. For the development of language in AAC, Symbol-It is an essential tool. When the goal is to immerse your symbol speaker to improve language outcomes, then the solution is to Symbol-It.

Symbol Display options allow for the display to be customized to the needs of the symbol speaker. These include:
• Symbol Size - choose between small, medium, large, and extra large symbol sizes and adjust the spacing between symbols to adjust readability
• Show Words - display text for words that do not have a symbol in a particular symbol system
• Color Coding - visually distinguish the parts of speech using the Modified Fitzgerald color coding system

Symbol System options include the industry leaders, including:
• LAMP Words for Life® and UNITY® by Semantic Compaction/Prentke Romich
• SymbolStix®
• Smarty Symbols™

Align the symbol system to match your symbol speaker’s speech generating device symbols and/or classroom curriculum symbols. Each symbol system includes many vocabulary levels. Consider using the full version of the symbol system for the greatest representation of speech in symbols.
