Apps


      • Reading Apps
          • Even after remediating our kids’ dyslexia with research-based reading methods (LINK) some of our kids still prefer to be able to listen to text. Some people just learn better auditorily. This category of app includes a variety of what is known as text-to-speech because they literally take the text and convert it to sound – reading aloud to the listener.
          • Apps that read text aloud, especially those that highlight words as they go make reading a more pleasant and more productive experience. There are also apps that can read PDF documents aloud, apps that convert pictures of text to readable text through optical character recognition (OCR),
      • ClaroPDF
        • Since PDF files are essentially images of documents, they present a problem for basic text-to-speech technology. ClaroPDF is an app that can recognize image text and read it aloud with synchronized highlighting. Unlike most OCR apps, it preserves the formatting of the original document. Includes text-to-speech with synchronized highlighting, annotation tools, ability to add audio and video notes, and Dropbox integration. $6.99
      • Google Play Books
        • This is a great e-book app for Android devices because it integrates with the operating system’s TalkBack accessibility feature in order to provide continuous text-to-speech with synchronized highlighting. It should be noted that Google Play Books is also available for iOS devices, but that version lacks the “Read Aloud” feature present in the Android app. Includes integrated text-to-speech (“Read Aloud”) with synchronized highlighting, and annotation tools. FREE
      • Learning Ally
        • Learning Ally is an affordable source for human-narrated audio books.

      • Writing Apps
        • Many students with dyslexia also struggle with writing or dysgraphia. Dysgraphia can be caused by motor issues, vision issues, or a variety of processing issues. Writing apps can utilize word prediction, dictation, contextual spelling and grammar checking, and word retrieval tools to make the writing process easier.
      • Ginger Page
        • Sometimes, traditional spell-checkers do not catch every error in a piece of writing, such as when students use incorrect homonyms.

It also has a unique rephrasing tool that suggests better word choices for a piece of writing.

      • SnapType Pro
          • Workbooks and photocopied worksheets can be problematic for students with dyslexia. During normal OCR (Optical Character Recognition), the formatting is often lost for fill-in-the-blank and matching exercises, a problem that makes it difficult to use AT to insert answers. SnapType solves that problem by giving users the ability to overlay text boxes on photos of worksheets. Students can then use a keyboard to place their responses in the correct spaces. $4.99
      • Co:Writer
        • One of the best tools to use for spelling assistance is word prediction. Co:Writer lets students practice their knowledge of phonics while providing an important accommodation.

It bases its predictions on the context of particular sentences and on how well students sound out words they cannot spell correctly. $19.99
