If you are looking for a Word Prediction App that: Supports student writing fluency. Offers a list of words that will learn as the student types. Allows for word lists to be loaded. Includes a variety of pre-set word lists Is evidence-based. And the list goes on. If you are looking for these elements - CoWriter has it. Use it with my son with Down syndrome as well as middle school kids with a variety of needs and has enhanced the quantity of what they write while also impacting the quality based on their subsequent review.

Once you have an account, this app is awesome for people who benefit from word predication or speech to text for writing support. I like most the fact that you can toggle between this app on an iPad and the app within Google Chrome and your work is saved. I do not always have access to Google Chrome on my laptop but in those situations, I have access to my iPad. The tools are always somewhere convenient. O! I also like how I can have the text read back to me.
