Typical price range, not a vendor quote. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Professional guidance helps The device itself is simple to record on and press. But it works best when someone plans which messages and symbols to use and how the person will reach the buttons or switches. A speech-language pathologist or ATP can make that much more effective, though a family can start on their own.

What it is

Summary

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

The iTalk2 with Levels is a talking device with big, colored buttons that each play back a message you record. It has up to 12 messages across three levels and about 6 minutes of total recording time. Dual amplified speakers help messages carry in noisy rooms. The buttons have clear snap caps that hold picture symbols, so each message is easy to recognize. You can plug in external switches (sold separately) so someone can play messages without pressing the buttons, and the toy/appliance outputs let it trigger toys or other devices. The product page describes the four-button iTalk4 model, so confirm the button count for this exact model before ordering.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Record a message for each button and press to play it back.
  • With a guide
    1. Slide picture symbols under the clear snap caps so each button shows what it says.
    2. Record messages on each level and practice moving between levels. Expect 30 to 60 minutes. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
  • With professional help
    1. A speech-language pathologist or ATP can help choose the messages, symbols, and number of levels to fit the person's communication needs.
    2. If using external switches or a mounting arm, an OT or ATP can help find the right switch type and a comfortable position.
