Acapela My-Own-Voice now included at no additional cost with qualifying TD Devices

Starting July 14, anyone with a dedicated Tobii Dynavox AAC device* can access the Acapela My-Own-Voice (MOV) voice banking software license completely free of cost. This gives AAC users and their families timely and personalized voice banking without the need to secure separate funding. 

More choice, more personalization 

Alongside a wide range of pre-made synthetic voices included with their device, AAC users have the option to create a voice by recording their own or a donor's voice. This supports a more personal communication experience while giving them greater choice in how they sound.  

Helping children find a voice that feels like theirs 

Pre-made voices may not always reflect a child's personality or sense of identity. A donor voice recorded by a sibling, parent, relative, or family friend can provide a voice that feels more familiar. This can encourage confidence and participation in everyday interactions.  

Voice preservation for people with ALS 

For people with ALS, voice banking offers the opportunity to preserve a voice ahead of significant speech changes. With MOV, users can create a personalized voice by recording 50 short phrases, and have it ready to use when their device arrives. If using their own voice is not possible, they can create a custom voice using recordings from a family member or friend.  

Available on-device from anywhere 

MOV voices are stored directly on-device, providing communication that doesn’t rely on the cloud. Together with secure data handling and seamless compatibility across TD software, AAC users can communicate with confidence using a voice that is always available and uniquely theirs.
