LetMeTalk and Avaz’s AAC apps have some key differences. LetMeTalk is free and easy to get started, making it ideal for affordability and simplicity. In contrast, Avaz offers more advanced features like behavior supports and natural voices, making it great for early communication and family sharing. In the table below, we’ll compare features like pricing, vocabulary, and ease of use to help you decide which AAC app is best for your needs.
LetMeTalk |
Avaz |
|
|---|---|---|
| Good for Early Communication |
Not ideal for users who have no foundation of language.
|
Avaz can be customized for most learners who have little language skills established.
|
| Affordable Pricing |
The app is free. However, there is no support included and the quality of the application is low and is not recommended by speech therapists.
|
Offers a 14-day free trial with limited functionality, after which users must choose to subscribe for a lifetime ($200).
|
| Easy to Get Started |
All the video tutorials on the associated website are in Spanish, and little support is offered.
|
Estimated time: 15 minutes It's easy to get started with the free trial, but it's because there is little customization allowed until fully purchased.
|
| Easy Parent Modeling |
Very little power is given to parents to interact with their child's new language. They would need to download the app on their own phone and point everything out, or take the device away from the user.
|
There's a function called Avaz live that allows therapists to remotely connect to the app during teletherapy sessions and model externally on the user's app.
|
| Incentives to Practice |
No incentives to practice LetMeTalk, and many users get frustrated with the interface and no longer look forward to practicing.
|
Avaz offers no rewards to users for praciticing language.
|
| Natural Voices and Language Availability |
16 languages are available, but there are very few voices to choose from. There also seems to be a consistent glitch where the sound does not play when tapping words.
|
Available in English US, English AU, French, Sinhala, as well as 6 Indian languages: Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Kannada, Marathi, Telugu.
|
| Customer Support |
Very little support offered in English or in real-time. When clicking "support" in the app, users are taken to an "error" page.
|
Avaz does have a customer support number and email, but it is an Indian number, so accessibility is not always ideal for international users.
|
| Motor Planning |
No clear organization or strategy to helping users learn language consistently.
|
While Avaz is more about picture communication, there is an option for users to enable the Page-Up and Page-Down keys instead of scrolling for users who learn best through motor planning.
|
| Simplicity of the Screen |
The image-to-text size ratio is confusing to users and makes it difficult to read.
|
The screen is color coded and simpler than many AAC apps, the "home" button is very small and the distinction between folders and words is not clear.
|
| Reminders to Practice |
No reminders to practice AAC included with your purchase.
|
Reminders to practice are not included with Avaz' software.
|
| Image and Symbol Quality |
LetMeTalk uses 9000 pictograms of ARASAAC.
|
Avaz uses 15,000 pictures from Symbolstix.
|
| Fun Games to Build Skills |
There are no games in LetMeTalk that help AAC users improve their finger dexterity.
|
While the Avaz app does not have any built-in games, it does have information on its website about games that can be helpful in motivating and building skills of AAC users.
|
| Affordable Dedicated a Device Option |

|
None offered.
