## Description

Tap a picture and Ausome speaks - instantly and offline. Keyguard-ready grids stay in place, while the core board and three essential categories remain free.

Ausome gives children with limited verbal speech a voice they can carry everywhere. Tap a picture - the tablet speaks. That's it. No accounts, no setup, no internet required.

MADE FOR REAL COMMUNICATION
• A core board of essential words (I want, eat, drink, help, yes, no…) the moment the app opens
• 19 categories covering feelings, health, school, family, food, play, and daily routines
• Warm, natural recorded voices (choose female or male) that speak instantly - no robotic lag
• Works 100% offline, forever. WiFi is never needed to communicate.

DESIGNED FOR KEYGUARDS: A FIRST-CLASS FEATURE
Many children need a physical keyguard to steady their hands. Ausome is built for it:
• Perfectly symmetric grids - every cell identical, every gutter equal
• Caregiver-selectable grid sizes (2×2 up to 6×7) to match your keyguard
• Positions never move: hiding or locking content leaves its space, so learned motor patterns keep working
• On-screen Back and Next buttons in fixed corner cells - navigation never requires swiping
• Orientation lock to match how your keyguard is cut

CALM BY DESIGN
• No ads, no popups, and nothing to buy anywhere a child can reach
• Locked content is quietly greyed out - a child's tap on it does nothing
• Caregiver settings sit behind a parent gate

FOR CAREGIVERS, EDUCATORS, AND SLPs
• Start small and grow: show or hide whole categories or single words
• Two picture styles: friendly Ausome art, or Mulberry Symbols - the AAC-standard set used by many therapists
• A private "words spoken this week" counter - on this device only
• Nothing is tracked, collected, or sent anywhere. No accounts. Ever.

FREE FOREVER, WITH MORE IF YOU WANT IT
The core board plus the Emotions, Restroom, and Help Please categories are free forever - your child's basic voice is never behind a paywall. Ausome Unlimited unlocks all 19 categories and every word:
• Monthly $9.99, or Annual $59.99 with a 7-day free trial
• Or a one-time Lifetime unlock - pay once, yours forever
• Family Sharing included on every option

Ausome began at a nonprofit ranch serving children with special needs, where a tablet that finally spoke for a child changed everything. It's built to be the affordable answer to dedicated speech devices that cost thousands.

You can cancel auto-renewal at any time, but this won't affect the currently active subscription period. Your iTunes Account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. Any unused portion of a free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited if you purchase a subscription to that publication.
