Do I need a prescription or doctor's order to buy a speech tablet?

No. Gus Communication Devices sells AAC speech tablets directly to consumers with no prescription, no physician's order, no speech evaluation, and no pre-approval required. You can order today and receive your device in 3 to 4 business days. This is a major advantage over going through insurance, which can take months and require multiple evaluations.

What is the best AAC device for a non-verbal child?

For children and adults who are nonverbal or minimally verbal, we recommend the Samsung 8.7 inch Speech Tablet Bundle at $499.99 as the best entry-level option, or the Samsung 11 inch Speech Tablet Bundle at $699.99 for best overall value. Both include TalkTablet PRO pre-installed with 15 SLP-designed vocabulary sets, over 30,000 SymbolStix symbols, and customizable button pages ready to use out of the box.

What is the best AAC device for an adult who has lost speech?

For adults who have lost the ability to speak, we strongly recommend the Samsung 11 inch Speech Tablet Bundle at $699.99. The larger screen makes button selection easier for adults with motor challenges. TalkTablet PRO includes vocabulary sets designed for adults to express needs, feelings, and everyday phrases. No prescription or speech-language pathologist evaluation is required to order.

Are speech tablets HSA or FSA eligible?

Yes. AAC speech tablets purchased from Gus Communication Devices are generally HSA and FSA eligible as assistive communication devices for qualified medical purposes. We recommend confirming with your plan administrator before purchase.

Does Gus Communication Devices accept insurance?

We sell directly to consumers at consumer prices and do not bill insurance directly. Our devices are priced $499 to $999, compared to $4,000 to $8,000 for traditional dedicated AAC devices billed through insurance. Many customers find it faster and cheaper to pay directly. We accept HSA and FSA cards, Shop Pay 0% financing for 12 months, and all major credit cards. No insurance authorization or Medicare pre-approval is needed.

How long does shipping take?

Most orders ship within 1 business day and are delivered in 3 to 4 business days via free shipping. We ship to all 50 US states. No sales tax is charged outside of Arizona.

What is TalkTablet PRO and is it included with the speech tablets?

TalkTablet PRO is an award-winning AAC app developed by Gus Communication Devices. It is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and is included free with all Samsung bundle purchases pre-installed (a $250 value). It features over 30,000 SymbolStix symbols, 15 SLP-designed vocabulary sets, customizable button pages from 1 to 144 buttons per page, offline use with no internet required, and supports Android, iOS, Windows, and Chromebook.

How do your prices compare to traditional AAC devices like Tobii Dynavox?

Our speech tablet bundles range from $499.99 to $999.99 and include the tablet, AAC app, and protective case. Traditional dedicated AAC devices such as those from Tobii Dynavox or PRC-Saltillo typically cost $4,000 to $8,000 when purchased through insurance channels, and often require a speech evaluation, physician prescription, and months of waiting. We offer the same communication capability at consumer electronics pricing with no delays.

How Much Is Proloquo2Go? Price, Platforms, and Lower-Cost Alternatives

October 6, 2026

How Much Is Proloquo2Go?

Proloquo2Go, the symbol-based AAC app from AssistiveWare, is a one-time purchase of $249.99 in the Apple App Store. There is no monthly subscription. You buy it once and it stays on that Apple ID.

The app price is only part of the picture. Proloquo2Go runs on Apple devices only. There is no Android, Windows, or Chromebook version, so the real cost of a working Proloquo2Go setup depends on the iPad you put it on.

The Real Cost of a Working Proloquo2Go Setup

Here is what families typically spend to get communicating with Proloquo2Go:

Proloquo2Go app: $249.99 (one-time)
iPad: roughly $350–$800 depending on model and storage
Protective case and screen protector: $40–$100
Realistic total if purchased separately: about $650–$1,150

AssistiveWare periodically discounts Proloquo2Go, often around Autism Acceptance Month (April) and AAC Awareness Month (October). If you are not in a hurry, check their promotions before buying.

Does Insurance Pay for Proloquo2Go?

Usually not. Most insurers, including Medicare and Medicaid, will not cover an app installed on a general-use iPad, because the tablet can run non-communication apps and falls outside the Durable Medical Equipment (DME) definition. Families who choose Proloquo2Go on an iPad generally pay out of pocket. HSA and FSA funds can often be used, which makes the purchase more tax-efficient.

For school-age children, a district can provide an iPad with Proloquo2Go when AAC is written into the student's IEP.

Proloquo2Go Compared to Other AAC Apps

Proloquo2Go: $249.99, Apple only
LAMP Words for Life: $299.99, Apple only
TouchChat HD: $150–$300, Apple only
TalkTablet PRO: $199.99, Apple and Android

If your family already owns a Samsung or other Android tablet, Proloquo2Go is not an option without buying an iPad. TalkTablet PRO runs on both platforms, which can save several hundred dollars in hardware.

Buying Proloquo2Go as a Ready-to-Use Speech Tablet

Setting up an iPad, an Apple ID, an app purchase, and a case takes time. A pre-configured speech tablet arrives ready to use. Speech Tablets by Gus Communication Devices offers an 11" Apple speech tablet with your choice of Proloquo2Go, TouchChat, or LAMP Words for Life for $999, including a protective case with screen protector, free FedEx shipping, no sales tax outside Arizona, HSA/FSA eligibility, and 0% financing for 12 months.

If budget matters more than a specific app, Samsung-based speech tablets with TalkTablet PRO preinstalled start at $499 (8.7") and $699 (11"), and ship within 24 hours.

Is Proloquo2Go Worth $249.99?

Proloquo2Go is a well-established, widely used AAC app, and many speech-language pathologists know it well. If your SLP or school team already uses it, staying consistent between home and school has real value. If you are starting fresh, are on Android, or are watching costs, compare it with other symbol-based apps before you commit.
