What we think

Yes, once downloaded you are not required to create an account, or sign in to use the app.
Yes, the game can be used as a reward or in a motivating way but it can also provide opportunities for an individual with Autism to make “smart guesses”. The app only slowly reveals visual clues, requiring you to guess the image. Literacy skills can be developed as the individual is required to spell out the word. Some of the more challenging pictures, also require the individual to understand word relations.

Yes, it can be used for a variety of age ranges. There are requirements for the user to be able to read, but can be suitable for emerging readers. The user also requires the ability to navigate use of an app.

The app can be used for both recreational and learning purposes. The app provides opportunity to increase vocabulary related to Christmas, and targets both literacy and language skills.
The app is quite comprehensive given it a free app. However, it could improve by providing a How-To-Play page to support people who are using the app for the first time.
