Parkinson’s Speech Aid for Android

9 things about Parkinson’s Speech Aid

1. The use of this effect while speaking has been shown to improve speech in people who stutter or those who struggle with speech issues from other conditions such as Parkinson’s, Autism, Tourette’s and others.

2. The Parkinson’s Speech Aid app was developed and designed to recreate the ‘choral speech effect’, by replaying the user’s speech with a slight delay and change in pitch.

3. Parkinson’s Speech Aid was developed with several user-friendly features, including a recording function to record your resultant fluent speech.

4. Please be aware that this app is strictly to be used for personal use, so that you can experience Altered Auditory Feedback and to help determine if you may be susceptible to the fluency-enhancing effects of choral speech.

5. Choral speech is when one or more people are speaking in unison with each other at the same time.

6. This app will allow the user to speak in unison with themselves (at a slight delay and change in pitch) which will reduce the rate of speaking and thereby reduce the number of repetitions.

7. We also strongly recommend the involvement of a Speech-Language Pathologist for any fluency treatment program.

8. Recorded files are automatically saved and can then be emailed via your mail account on your iOs device.

9. Since there are many factors which affect fluency, your results may vary.
