This app gives you a sample of the professional rehab and special education app: Visual Attention TherAppy. Visual Attention Therapy provides systematic and customizable practice to train the eyes and brain to move correctly. Developed for stroke survivors and people with dyslexia by a Speech-Language Pathologist, Visual Attention TherAppy offers 2 modes:
- Test – check if there’s a problem in scanning or attention
- Practice – move left to right, finding 1 or 2 targets in order
Set Practice to Left, None, or Right to turn on/off a bright signal at the edge of the screen to draw attention to the neglected side of space. Customize the signal to match the training program already in place (red line, yellow line, flashing).
There are 12 settings of spacing/size to customize the app for the level of the user to provide between 24 & 228 items on the screen available in the full app. The Lite version offers 1 size/spacing setting to get you started.
Email results of the test (indicates which quadrant is most often neglected) and practice to track progress over time for both speed and accuracy.
**This LITE version restricts Test and Practice modes to 1 level and 1 size to allow you to experience how the full app works. It is a fully functional app for this 1 level and size, allowing you to try 1 or 2 targets and access emails.***
