One of our iPad users really likes her Sharkk speaker but it’s not the best option for someone who is still ambulatory.  

See below for a few that are on my list to try.  All available on Amazon (of course)

Hi Julia,

I'm excited to see what others may have found too. 

 

By the way, I got to meet some of your talented colleagues at the ALSA Clinical Conference. What a great team you have at Cedars!

I am currently working with a bulbar onset, ambulatory individual with ALS who uses Predictable text-to-speech app on his iPhone.  His wife is asking for recommendations for a small, portable bluetooth speaker that could help boost the volume of the speech output.

 

Any ideas/recommedations from the AAC hive? 😊
