Bought it and after 15mins with the full version deleted and refund requested. I attempted to make my own schedule using photos I took myself while adding steps. Most wouldn't save :( Next I tried to change an image using one of the stock images, saved. That one kept reverting also. Recorded audio, but where does that play? Lastly, I couldn't rearrange the order of the steps for a schedule. 15 mins of trying and failing I realized I can probably do the same thing with PowerPoint.

Give 0 stars, limited to edit, useless for free version since not much you can do, good concept but since you very limited on fixing a schedule wouldn't even be worth a buy. Pretty much a waste of time and effort, practically useless, do yourself and download a diffrent app, can find better ones for free.

This app has potential. It is limited. Parents need access to pictures of a variety of individual task. You can upload your own picture which for some tasks like putting on shoes a child would recognize and maybe even relate better, howerever having the caricatures shoes would be more universally effective. If there were options and acess to unlimited art (different foods, clothes, places) for the variety of topics autism has. I would pay for it in a heartbeat. It has potential.

Great at making visual social stories, adding photos and voice cues. Downfall is that you cant login and share your stories on multiple devices. I have installed on my phone for on the go use, and on my sons tablet for home use, but have to create stories twice as they dont sync together.

Not happy with this app at all very limited even on the full version would not recommend requested a refund to the app developer waiting for a response

I began using this, and I stopped after 5 minutes. Most of the photos I added had their colors distorted when I added them. Worse yet, the app made that photo override the original in my gallery somehow, so I ended up losing several photos in the process.

About this app

Visual Schedules And Social Stories is a visual support app focusing on using social stories and visual schedules to improve socially appropriate behaviors in children with autism. It's a virtual visual support app to assist children with autism and communication challenges at home, school and the community. The app replaces the traditional visual supports that can be cumbersome, time consuming, costly to create and limited in function.

Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder may have difficulty with expressive language or social skills. Social Stories are a tool that teachers and parents use to teach children with autism the appropriate way to act in a social situation. While Visual Schedules helps children with autism to have a daily routine and schedule for different tasks. They also like to know what to expect during the day. Visual schedules use pictures to show students which activities they will be doing that day.
They also help students stay on-task by showing them what work they need to do before they can participate in an activity they enjoy!
Making Social Stories and Visual Schedules takes a lot of time and energy for teachers and parents who are already very busy. The time spent on laminating, gluing, and printing could be better used teaching children on how to use these great tools. And here is where Visual Schedules And Social Stories app comes in. Along with having multiple wonderful built-in Visual Schedules and Social Stories, the app also helps parents and teachers to create their own unlimited personal schedules and stories about new events or skills they are trying to teach.
