Amy,
That is really interesting because I literally tried that app with a client today as he has been using it on his phone and it did not work. What phone do you have?
It may be a hardware issue?

Hi,
I just tried Speech Assistant on my iPhone to make a phone call and to my surprise it worked. I love that affordable TTS app so I am really pleased. Perhaps I am missing something but it seems to function fine.

As far as I know, this is currently available with Proloquo2go and Proloquo4Text. I have tried a couple other AAC apps, but they do not work - there must be some programming that needs to be done on the app side to make this work.Apparently, there were some changes in iOS 13 that now allow app developers to do this.Here is a blog post that explains it:Sincerely,
