Some Favorite Scheduling Apps

Two of my favorite scheduling apps that I often recommend are: Choiceworks and First Then Visual Schdule (FTVS). Both do similar things, but they also have some different features that are important.  I really like that both apps include a library of pictures, and ways to import pictures through your built-in camera or pictures saved on your camera roll. In addition, both apps allow you to create quick and easy schedules with the ability to record voices and incorporate text-to-speech for non readers or students that require multimodal support. Choiceworks and FTVS also have a nice visual to show the individual the completion of each task.

  •  3 social story (Companion) books for each board
FTVS
