MyGame Puzzle, our new app

mypuzzle

MyGame Puzzle is the fourth application of “MyGame” family. In “MyGame” apps we intend to create cognitive stimulation game generators, so you can create and play these activities but always adapting them to the end user. This application allows you to create two types of puzzles and play to solve them.

This application makes possible to create two types of puzzles ranging from size 2×2 until size 6×5, with the images that the user desire. The app also offers the possibility to set hints in the game and to limit play time. Finally, it also allows some basic gamification by grouping puzzles in complex sets if desired. It is available in Spanish, English, German, French, Italian and Galician.

We’ve uploaded this new app MyGame Puzzle to Google Play and our web:

Here you can have a look at several screenshots of the app.

SetTime, a new app

SetTime Logo

SetTime offers a set of highly configurable time counters for people with special needs such as Autism Spectrum Disorder.

This application is mainly intended for kids and adults with special needs such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, but can be used by anyone who wants to have a nice set of counters.

This application allows to create five different types of time counters for kids and adults with special needs such as Autism Spectrum Disorder in order to make them understand the concept of time, i.e. know how much time an activity takes or how much time is left for an activity.

The counters types are: analog, progress, hourglass, bars and tasks. All counters are highly configurable, as well as the aspect appearence of the whole app.

It includes an always-on-screen mode, so the application is always visible. To exit this mode, the user must press simultaneously the volume down button and the left up corner of the screen.

We are back

At last, after a summer break in which we have completed a harsh and complicated hosting moving, we are back. It wouldn’t have been possible without the precious help and support of Iñaki, the best web designer and administrator anyone could dream of.

Of course, there is still a lot of work to be done so we are very thankful for your patience. Thank you ever so much for being there.

MyGame Sequences, our new app

MYGAME SEQUENCES DESORDEN

MyGame Sequences is the third application of “MyGame” family. In “MyGame” apps we intend to create cognitive stimulation game generators, so you can create and play these activities but always adapting them to the end user. This application allows you to create sequences of actions, very much like the ones needed to teach children within the Austistic Spectrum. You can also play  and to sort them out, thus, learning their order.

This application makes possible to create sequences ranging from 2 to 7 images and to enrich them with text and audio. The app also offers the possibility to set hints in the game and to limit play time. Finally, it also allows some basic gamification by grouping games in complex sets if dessired. It is available in Spanish, English, German, French, Italian and Galician.

To remove a sequence you have to do it from an Android file explorer, removing the adequate folder inside the game folder “MyGameSequences”.

We’ve uploaded this new app MyGame Sequences to Google Play and our web:

PictoTalk, instant messaging using pictograms!

PictoTalk_logo

PictoTalk is an instant messaging application based on pictograms. It allows communication by using Picts (signs that schematically represent a symbol, real object or figure) as well as text. So far our communication boards needed the presence of the person you wanted to communicate with, so he/she could hear the message. Thanks to PictoTalk we take a step further! By sending the pictograms using Internet, this application allows a person to communicate, using an Android phone or tablet, with anyone in the world by means of pictograms. It is available in Spanish, English, German, French and Italian.

For communication, it is necessary to choose our own user name, and add the person we want to communicate with by using their username. From that moment them both can communicate using Picts or text. The application allows to listen to the Picts and texts, both sent as well as received.

PictoTalk is highly configurable. For the selection of the Picts used to communicate it uses PictoDroid Lite v3.0, so it is very easy to modify the board: adding, deleting, changing, renaming… Picts. It is also possible to configure it to use other Picts and even real images.

PictoTalk does not encrypt messages, so it is advisable not to send sensible data such as passwords and credit card numbers.

In PictoTalk there cannot be two users with the same name, if you try to pick a name that is already selected, it is not permitted. If you need to delete an account, please contact us via email.

You can try PictoTalk by adding the “accegalresponde” account. This account will not answer questions, just simply answer random pictograms and text as an example and it will disappear in a few days.

PictoTalk may not work in some corporate WiFi networks (companies, administrations, universities, etc.). For security reasons these networks do not allow access to certain Internet addresses, due to this PictoTalk will not work on these networks despite not being a harmful application. Try using the application with your mobile data connection or with another WiFi.
