iConverse 2.0 Update is available
May 13, 2009

On May 5th, 2009 Apple approved the new 2.0 version of the iconverse software. If you have previously purchased iConverse, you will currently be able to download the upgrade for free through the upgrade section of the App Store on your device. If you don’t already own iConverse the application can be downloaded for $9.99 through the App Store.

The 2.0 version of iConverse now comes with the ability to make custom buttons that include an audible sentence stating the meaning of the icon. You can now customize the iConverse ACC software for any use that you need; vocabulary, word recognition, wants and needs. In addition the 6 original icons are still available under the common buttons tag to communicate basic needs.

For more information on how to download, change settings and make custom buttons you can find video tutorials on the About iConverse section of this page.

Ian Walden holds a Master's Degree in Special Education and a Bachelor's Degree in Communication. He has been working in the special needs community for over 8 years. He currently works in a community based teaching program in a public high school where his students are constantly interacting with the general population. As a teacher, Ian saw there was a need for his students to have a communication device that would be very basic, affordable, and easily transported. With this type of device, his students would be able to interact in community settings such as malls, grocery stores, hospitals, etc., with very little outside assistance.
