Field notes
Caregivers add photos and videos stored on the device, then choose which items appear; controls include repeat counts, a delay before replay, disabling seek controls, timed sessions, breaks, and bedtime. The communication board groups picture cards around needs such as food, drink, bathroom, and help, with choices that can be customized using household photos. The page says the beta requires an internet check at least once every three days, despite offline use otherwise, and explicitly cautions that the board is not a full AAC replacement.
