User Reviews

SoundingBoard is praised for its deep customization and for giving nonverbal users a voice in classroom and home settings, especially with own photos and voices and branching boards. Reviewers also value the export/import feature for backups. However, repeated issues include crashes, saving/editing persistence problems, and lack of cross-device login to sync boards. Some users also cite a subpar editing UX and navigation. Overall potential is strong, pending improvements in reliability and data persistence.

Pros

Deep customization: use your own photos and voice to build branching, linked boards
Highly useful for nonverbal users and classroom/therapy settings, effectively giving a voice to students
Export/import feature helps back up boards and reduces duplication across devices
Supports multilingual/script experimentation and flexible board creation in various languages

Cons

Frequent stability issues: app crashes on startup or when adding/purchasing boards
Saving/persistence problems: edits, recordings, or newly created boards often do not save
No built-in cross-device login/sync to transfer boards between iPhone/iPad or share with others
Editing/UX drawbacks: some reviewers find the board-creation UI clunky, with small navigation elements and inconsistent icons

We like the app for use with our toddler but since I purchased a 99 cent board, the app is crashing on startup and will not open. I also wish it had large button icons for picking the boards.

The way this can be customized to make branching options of words into sentences made this perfect for our needs. Switch access features work well. Thank you for a great app

It’s a great app and my non verbal son can use it but it would be barter to be able to have a way to log in and save the boards across several platforms. Because when I add a picture now, I have to find allll the other devices and add it. No convenient.
