Just to let anyone know that is interested, after booking voice surgery in South Korea, I started to think of easy ways to communicate when not allowed to speak. So being a geek, searched the apple App Store to see if there was a helpful app out there that could talk for me. Everything I found were in all honesty, not that useful, so I developed my own app. I have now added it to the Apple App Store for iOS devices, but due to the amount of work, decided to charge for it.

But...  As a developer, I am able to send up to 100 people a code for the app so they can download it free of charge, so anyone on here that has an iPhone and has surgery coming up, feel free to pm me and I will send you a code so you can download it free of charge.  The code as far as I am aware needs to be put in on iTunes on a computer.

Please only ask for a code if you have surgery booked, as I am limited by Apple to 100.  I would also welcome any feedback on improvements etc.  The link to the app is https://appsto.re/gb/mTXt4.i

i love this kind of app. i used it before after surgery. perfect tool

I installed this one:

Is it any good or are there better ones? It seems descent, one can store sentences or words on buttons or type and it has a rather ok text-to-speech engine if one installs the recommended hich quality voice in the language needed. I hope it will help me around in February.

Looks like it does pretty much the same job I used mine all the time when I couldn't speak - so an app is definitely the way ahead...
