As much speech therapy as you want, when you want it
Stroke or brain injury can have a major impact on your ability to communicate through speaking, writing, reading and understanding. This can be devastating for everyone, including family and friends.
Fortunately, therapy can help.
Research has shown that speech therapy for aphasia is most effective when it is carried out intensively, 4-5 times a week. It’s also most effective when it’s personally tailored to your needs.
But even if you’re lucky enough to be receiving speech therapy, it’s unusual to be able to access this much face-to-face therapy. Cuespeak provides a tool to enable you to access unlimited amounts of therapy designed by specialist Speech and Language Therapists and configurable very precisely to your own needs.
You can even make personalised exercises to work on your own vocabulary, such as names of family, friends and significant places.
Anyone with reasonable vision and hearing can use Cuespeak. The touchscreen interface is highly intuitive, and no experience of computers is necessary. Cuespeak is designed to cater for the needs of everyone, even those with severe communication difficulties.
Ideally Cuespeak should be configured by an experienced Speech-Language professional, but there is a lot of help available within the app to select appropriate exercises if you do not have professional support. Find out more
You will need an Apple iPad or iPhone running iOS 12 or greater. A WiFi internet connection is highly recommended.
– Cuespeak contains all therapy modules “under one roof”, reducing the need for complex navigation.
– Cuespeak moves beyond dry “picture naming” activities to a more dynamic “question and answer” approach that has more in common with everyday interactive language use.
– Cuespeak is constantly updated with fresh material, including material about current world events, keeping the therapy experience in the here and now.
– Cuespeak is by far the most configurable app available, allowing the content to be adjusted very specifically to individual need.
– Cuespeak allows you to create your own personalised exercises to work on material of personal relevance such as names of family, friends and significant places.
You’ll get the most out of Cuespeak if it’s been configured correctly to your particular needs, ideally with the expertise of an experienced speech-language professional. However, we recognise that not everyone can access such help. We have therefore included help within the app to allow non-professionals to select approriate exercises as well as create personalised ones. If you intend to use Cuespeak without professional support, we highly recommend reading the user manual.
Yes, there is an increasing body of evidence that apps can contribute very significantly to the process of recovery from acquired speech and language difficulties.

What Home Users are saying about Cuespeak
This app is just what we have been looking for to improve aphasia and limited speech. It’s easy to set up and self explanatory…. I totally recommend this.
After a year of being recommended lots of apps for aphasia we found Cuespeak and what a great app it is. Now my husband uses it every day and still finds it helpful. This week an update did not load on our old ipad but after contacting the app makers it was resolved and I received fantastic customer service.
Cuespeak is an absolutely amazing app! I am an American using this app with my daughter who is 6 with a brain injury diagnosis, even though this app was made for adults in the UK, I can already tell it is going to be a game changer for her. It is both simple to use and engaging for her without being overwhelming. Seriously, I can see this app being expanded and used for therapy not just with aphasia and brain injury patients, but also people with learning differences like dyslexia. There are so many possibilities here! Thank you to the developers of this app! I will be telling all my followers on social media!
Excellent app. Very user-friendly and versatile. It allows the user to tailor exercises to individual needs, and as progress is made. The built-in tutorials for the exercises make it perfect for independent use and it’s clear that aphasia and the challenges that people with aphasia face are well understood.
A great resource to address Mom’s aphasia and something she can do independently.
I just wanted to thank you for your marvellous program. My husband has an ABI, has severe aphasia but, has not lost his intelligence. Your program stimulates his interest – there is no dumbing down. Keep up the good work.
We love the humour in Cuespeak, and the canny way that you get my husband to engage. The latest clip of Trump using Twitter allows us to talk about other social media platforms and the question on Covid, not allowing children to attend school again, stimulated conversation. I also get a real chuckle at your comments on wrong answers.
We really, really appreciate Cuespeak.
