SafeStim

This sensory app supports stimming for people with autism through interactive physical, visual, and audio tools.

SafeStim is a calming sensory app designed for children, parents, and individuals with autism or other special needs.

Whether at home, in the car, at school, or out in public, SafeStim provides a portable and accessible environment for self-regulation and relaxation using only an iPhone or iPad. The app includes three different forms of sensory stimulation:

Visual Stimulation:

Tap the screen to create colorful circles with soothing pulse animations. This simple activity encourages focus and visual engagement.

Audible Stimulation: Listen to built-in calming sounds, including rain, birds, and gentle water ambience to help create a peaceful environment.

Physical Stimulation: Interact with a realistic virtual zipper designed to mimic the satisfying motion of tactile fidget objects.
