App Profile: SwitchTrainer

SwitchTrainer is an application designed to learn how to use one or two switches. The target groups are children with physical impairments or a learning disability.

SwitchTrainer for iPad is available in 2 versions:
- SwitchTrainer: Only a limited number of exercises can be used. An In-App Purchase is required to use all exercises.
- SwitchTrainer PRO: All exercises can be used without limitation.

The aim of the application – apart from having fun – is to automatize the use of one or two switches to finally be able to use 2-switch-scanning. The exercises offer a range of different possibilities to learn, train and implement the use of two switches. Self-initiative and learning by doing are key components rather than reacting to given tasks and solving of exercises.
