What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
The GoTalk Dynamic is a bundled AAC solution that pairs Attainment Company's GoTalk NOW Plus communication app with a 9th-generation iPad and a protective GoNow case, sold together as a ready-to-use package. It's designed for people who need a symbol-based, touch-screen communication system — particularly those who are newer to AAC or who benefit from a simplified, visually clear interface compared to more complex systems. Because the hardware, protective case, and app come together, families and schools don't have to source components separately or worry about compatibility. Meaningful communication with this system still requires vocabulary setup and ideally guidance from an SLP; the bundle gives you the hardware, but the app needs to be configured with the user's specific words and pages before it's truly functional.

What Setup Looks Like
- Out of the box
Power on the iPad — the GoTalk NOW Plus app is pre-installed and launchable right away for basic exploration. - With a guide
- Create or import a GoTalk NOW Plus user profile and select an appropriate page set or template for the user's communication level.
- Add personalized vocabulary, photos, and symbols relevant to the user's daily routines — allow 1-3 hours depending on complexity.
- Fit the GoNow protective case onto the iPad and configure any access method settings (touch, scanning) within the app.
- See Attainment Company's GoTalk NOW Plus documentation and tutorial videos for detailed setup instructions.
- With professional help
- A speech-language pathologist (SLP) with AAC experience should conduct a feature-match assessment to confirm GoTalk NOW Plus is appropriate for this user's communication needs and motor access.
- The SLP or an assistive technology professional (ATP) programs vocabulary organization, page structure, and access method, then trains the user, family, and caregivers — typically 2-4 sessions over several weeks.
