Good afternoon,
Our ALS clinic recently received a grant to start a loan closet for low-tech and tablet-based communication devices to provide to our mobile bulbar patients that don't want to lug around a large/heavier dedicated device. I have been doing a lot of research to "get the most bang for my buck" and was hoping for some feedback/advise from the group.
I am looking to use the Predictable app, so I need to make sure I'm purchasing a tablet that is compatible. I am more of an iPad gal myself, but know that I can get more tablets if I go with an android device. Amazon has a great price for the Fire HD 8 tablet. It looks like Predictable is compatible with this tablet, but I can't find it in writing. I am waiting to hear back from Therapy Box to confirm, but figured I'd check here as well. Has anyone used this combo?
Also, is anyone familiar with the Fire HD tablet? I want to make sure I select a good tablet. Is there a better tablet I should look into that is reasonably priced?
Thanks in advance.
