App Description

****I like that this app includes so many different activity choices and different levels. One thing that this app includes that most do not is background noise. This is great for working on a student's ability to focus on a task and ignore distractions. (Simply Speech)****
****Comprehension Aphasia is a great app for anyone working on improving their auditory processing/receptive language abilities. It's a comprehensive app that allows you to work on so much, while increasing cognitive and linguistic complexity. (Carrie's Speech Corner)****

The Comprehension Aphasia app was created by a certified speech and language pathologist for adults and children, and it focuses on auditory comprehension of increasingly longer and complex yes-no- questions and directions with the ability to turn on background noise.
