Voca is a free communication app for children and adults who can't rely on speech. Tap picture buttons, build a sentence, and the tablet says it out loud. No subscription. No locked features. No hefty price tag just to be able to talk.
Free forever. Works with no internet. Built for iPad and Android.
This little board uses the same voice engine as the real app. Tap the buttons the way a child would, then hit Speak to hear the whole sentence. Sound on!
The real app has full boards for feelings, food, people and places, folders that link together, a typing keyboard, and a parent editor with a child lock. Every word gets spoken the moment it's tapped.
Start a sentence and Voca suggests what usually comes next, learned privately on the device itself. Nothing about how your child speaks ever leaves the tablet. Tap a suggestion and the whole word drops in.
Every common word comes with a friendly pictogram from the ARASAAC and Mulberry libraries, so kids who don't read yet can find the right button fast. Parents can swap in their own photos too: a real photo of grandma beats any drawing.
A communication device has one job: never go quiet.
Everything runs on the device: boards, voice, edits. Airplane mode, road trips, dead spots. Nothing changes.
A parent account keeps every board safe. A lost, broken, or wiped tablet never means starting over.
A parent PIN protects editing and settings, so exploring fingers can talk all day but never delete a board.
No trial, no tiers, nothing to unlock. Donations from families who can afford it keep the servers running.
Voca installs straight from the browser. No app store, no account with anyone but us, nothing to pay.

Voca is made for tablets and phones, where a communication device actually lives. It doesn't run on desktop computers. Accounts are created by a parent, guardian, or professional aged 18 or over; the communicator itself is used freely by any age.
Voca is built by one person, and the families using it decide what gets built. Wish for a feature, report something broken, or just say hi. Every message lands straight in my inbox and gets read.
Voca stays free for every family, everywhere. If it helps someone in your life and you're able, a small donation covers the servers and cloud storage that keep everyone's boards safe. If not, please just keep talking. That's what Voca is for.
You'll finish securely on Stripe with your amount already filled in. Voca never sees card details, and donating unlocks nothing, because there is nothing locked.
