Cuespeak vs Speech Blubs

Cuespeak is a rehabilitation app for people with aphasia and apraxia of speech, intended for practice at home or in a clinic. It runs on iOS and macOS and provides 14 configurable therapy modules with ready-made exercises and templates for personalised content. Sessions can address word finding, reading, writing, understanding words and sentences, spoken word production, sentence construction, and asking or answering questions. More than 15,000 videos break words and sentences into words, syllables, and sounds. Users can record and replay attempts, create exercises about themselves, and request videos for unavailable names or places. Cuespeak Clinician lets speech and language therapists send sessions and updates remotely and receive usage data and results. Clinician tools include progress tracking and custom activities. Home pricing starts at £9.99 per month with a 14-day trial; there is no free plan. Offline access is unavailable, and speech recognition uses Apple’s Siri system.

Speech Blubs is a speech-learning app for children ages 1–8. It uses video modeling: children watch other children say words and imitate them. More than 1,500 activities cover speech practice, speech sounds, language skills, face filters, stickers, and different developmental stages. The maker describes the app for children with speech delay, Down syndrome, apraxia, or autism, and says it supplements professional speech therapy rather than replacing it. One subscription covers a family, with multiple child profiles in one account. The maker says there are no ads or links leading children out of the app, and that content is age-appropriate for ages 1–8. Some activities work offline after download, though internet access is recommended for the best experience and all features. It runs on iOS and Android, not Kindle or Amazon Fire tablets. Plans include $14.99 a month, $59.99 a year with a 7-day trial, and $29.98 a year for the listed one-time offer.
