Professional guidance helps The device itself is simple to use and a family member can record messages on their own. The real work is deciding what to say, how to group messages across the five levels, and how to teach use in daily routines. An SLP or ATP can make a big difference in how well the device ends up supporting communication, so professional guidance is recommended.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · October 1, 2026

The QuickTalker FeatherTouch 7 is a portable voice output device that plays back recorded messages when someone touches its membrane surface. It responds to very light touches, so it works for small fingers or limited strength. It holds 23 messages across five recording levels: three core messages stay the same on every level, and four change from level to level. That makes it easy to set up one level for the classroom, another for the bus, and another for home. The device doesn't come with symbol overlays, so you'll need to make your own, and AbleNet offers a free iPad app for that. Batteries are included.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Batteries are included, so the device can be switched on and used for recording right out of the box.
  • With a guide
    1. Record the three core messages that stay the same on every level, such as a request for help or a drink.
    2. Record the four messages for each level you plan to use, matching them to places like the classroom, bus, or home.
    3. Make and place symbol overlays so the messages are easy to find. Allow about 30-60 minutes to record messages and build the first overlay. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
  • With professional help
    A speech-language pathologist (SLP) or ATP can help choose the vocabulary for each level and plan how the device fits into daily routines. Plan on one session of about an hour.
