Professional guidance helps The app itself downloads and opens easily, but its intended use — assessing and developing visual skills in children with low vision or CVI — requires a TVI or vision specialist to administer meaningfully and interpret results. Using it without professional guidance risks misapplication or missed findings.

What it is

Summary

AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026

TADPOLE Interactive Images is a free iBook app from APH designed to support visual skill assessment and development in children with visual impairments or cortical/cerebral visual impairment (CVI). The app presents high-contrast, visually simple images that can be used by teachers, vision specialists, or therapists to gauge how a child responds to and processes visual stimuli. It's a tool in a larger evaluation and intervention process — not a standalone diagnostic instrument — and works best when a teacher of the visually impaired (TVI) or vision therapist guides how results are interpreted and used. Because it's an iBook, it requires an Apple device with iBooks/Apple Books support, and it's only available on iOS/iPadOS.
