Price is what the vendor listed when last checked. Confirm it with the vendor before buying.

Setup with instructions The device itself is simple, and a family member can set it up with the instructions in about half an hour. Getting real benefit takes some thought, though. Someone has to choose which messages and pictures to use and record them clearly. Because of that, guided setup fits better than fully self-serve.

What it is

Summary

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

The Talkbook Four is a portable communication aid that holds four separate one-message talkers in a folder. Each talker (a GoTalk One) has a large, colorful PLAY button and a picture display, and you record up to 10 seconds of speech on it by sliding a switch on the back to RECORD. That makes it a good fit for someone who needs a few spoken choices or a short sequence of steps, such as a routine, in one place. The vinyl folder has clear pockets for the four talkers plus one large visual cue, and it opens flat to about 13.6 by 6.6 inches. Batteries are included. Each talker only holds one message, so you'll re-record whenever a message needs to change.

What setup looks like

  • Out of the box
    Batteries are included, so each talker is ready to use once the picture display is in place.
  • With a guide
    1. Slide each picture display into the covered frame on its GoTalk One.
    2. Slide the switch on the back to RECORD, press PLAY, and speak your message (up to 10 seconds). Then slide the switch back and press PLAY to check it.
    3. Place the four talkers in the folder's clear pockets and add the visual cue if you're using one. Plan about 15-30 minutes to record and arrange the messages for the person using it.
