Professional guidance helps The software installs easily, but it only helps when paired with a switch that fits the learner and is placed well. A therapist or AT specialist can choose the switch, set the starting level and plan the next steps in switch skills. A family could manage alone, but results are usually better with professional input.

What it is

Summary

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

Switch Skills is a Windows program of game-style activities that help someone practice pressing a switch at the right moment. In activities like Racing Cars, Catch the Crocs and Soccer Shoot, the learner presses to race, catch or kick when the timing is right. Bright graphics and audio feedback make it usable for learners with low vision. The program tracks performance, and you can raise the difficulty as skills grow. A related Scanning title builds early scanning and choice-making skills. It is software only, so you will need a switch the learner can use and a way to connect it to the computer.

Getting it

Try before you buy

Devices like this are often available to borrow through your state's AT Act program — typically free or low-cost — so you can try it before buying or pursuing funding.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Install the program on a Windows computer once the delivery arrives by email (about 2-3 working days).
  • With a guide
    1. Connect the learner's switch to the computer and check that a press starts and controls the activities.
    2. Try a few activities and adjust the difficulty settings to a level the learner can succeed at. Plan about 30 minutes.
  • With professional help
    An OT, SLP or AT specialist can help choose the right switch and body position and set a starting difficulty. They can also decide when to move from timing activities to scanning. See manufacturer support resources for detailed instructions.
