iPhone apps to help Autism

Hey De, from my understanding theres nothing as complex as that on the store, apps like this would often be memory consuming, if you imagine having a picture for every word in the dictionary, stuff like localised slang and words may be hugely different depending on where the app is being used. However, I'm aware of an app that is used for AAC (Alternative and Augmentative Communication) to construct sentences from pictures, so maybe some kind of reverse effect wouldn't be impossible. I was actually thinking the other day about a way to make a calculator app that is visual, because I remember finding scientific calculators in school stupidly complicated A point I made in a presentation when i was pitching my Autism app to a software company was that for children with dyslexia, any visual guides to do things would be beneficial as apposed to traditional heavy text methods e.g. bus time tables/school time tables are all full of text and usually complicated to read. I guess because conditions like these are so complex theres not really a perfect app to do everything because it would be far too big and with each user being different, you would be in a scenario were users are skipping past content that isn't relevant to them.

I can point you in the direction of some visual apps, even a chart of the top educational apps if you'd like to have a dander but you'd have to email me privately because if I'm honest certain apps are extremely exploitive of parents and I've even seen some apps sell for £100+ because parents with children in these conditions are usually granted support by the government, developers like this assume you have this kind of money to splash around which we both know is never the case and although I'd like to shield your eyes from such apps it wouldn't be fair to bash 'competition'.

The app I'm working on will hopefully provide a platform for the ability to help parents affected by a wide range of conditions as apposed to my primary focus/source of inspiration.
