Visual Impact Pro provides easy step-by-step multimedia instructions for use by anyone needing a simple support to perform daily tasks of all kinds. Make a grilled cheese sandwich by yourself, learn important personal skills for applying for a job, or how to take your own blood pressure at home! Visual Impact Pro also lets you create your own custom step by step task instructions for any activity by adding pictures from your iPad photo library or taking new photos as you build the task steps. You can also record your own verbal instructions to go along with each step. You can edit any multimedia task instructions that you have previously created to personalize the learning activities with new pictures, additional steps, or new audio instructions. (Creating custom video based task instructions is not currently supported but will be in a future update to the app.)

Visual Impact Pro provides a researched-based, self-paced and self-directed learning tool for acquiring and reinforcing skills necessary for achieving independence across life activity domains, including education, employment, independent living, recreation and transition.



Visual Impact utilizes the AbleLink Instructional Media Standard (AIMS), AbleLink's award-winning step-by-step multimedia training system which applies universal design principles to provide accessible multimodal instruction using visual and auditory media. AbleLink Technologies is a leader in developing practical tools for daily living for persons with intellectual/developmental disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, short-term memory loss, and age-related cognition issues. Anyone who needs support for learning and maintaining skills necessary for daily living can benefit from Visual Impact Pro's ease of use.



After instructional task sets are created with Visual Impact Pro, they are available on the app's home screen for immediate use. Each set of task instructions contains visual and auditory prompts with an easy to navigate interface for following the step-by-step instructions in a self-directed manner. You can choose which tasks to show and which ones to hide on the Visual Impact display to customize your task library for different users who may be sharing the same device. Task sets can also be recycled when no longer needed to free up space in your local task library.

Customizing Visual Impact:

An important feature of any program designed to be used by users representing a wide range of cognitive abilities is the ability to modify the user interface to meet the specific needs of the individual. Many customization options are available in Visual Impact to modify the user interface to meet the needs of the learner.
