Pictalk Buddy already offers a great new update. Attention, here are the sequences. Sequences are an essential tool for people with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD). This can include autism spectrum disorders (ASD), trisomy 21, Angelman syndrome, and other disabilities that affect independence. Sequences show the steps to follow for brushing teeth, for example, or setting the table. Here is an example provided by ARASAAC.

Teeth Brushing Routines

Sequences contribute to greater independence and help to perform tasks alone. We quickly understood, with Pablo, our little brother who has trisomy 21, that combining sequences with his agenda is essential. Indeed, sequences are contextual and can depend on the place or time of day.

Pictalk AAC now integrates sequences that can be placed in events. For example, in the "eat" event, you can combine it with the sequence "wash your hands" and the sequence "set the table." Once completed, the sequence appears as validated.

It is also possible to view its sequences independently of the event in the agenda:

We hope that sequences will assist you in your caregiver work and enhance the independence of the people you support.
