What is the best AI text to speech app for ALS and Parkinson's?
Rejoin is an AI text-to-speech app for people losing their speech. It listens alongside the conversation, has replies ready as the question ends, and speaks the one you tap in your own Apple Personal Voice.
It is built for progressive and acquired speech loss: ALS/MND, Parkinson's, MS, stroke dysarthria, cerebral palsy, laryngectomy. Typing to speak, your sayings board, routines and Display mode work fully offline on iPhone and iPad, and stay free forever. The AI layer that listens and drafts replies needs a connection, and it is the part you subscribe to.
How Rejoin compares
How is Rejoin different from other AAC apps?
Every text-based AAC app speaks what you type, and several do it very well. The one thing that differs is whether the app hears the question that was just asked and has replies waiting when it ends. Rejoin does. Proloquo4Text, Predictable, TD Talk, Speech Assistant AAC and Apple Live Speech do not.

How Rejoin works
Conversation moves fast.
Now you do too.
Typing every word means answering questions a minute after they've moved on. Rejoin closes that gap — without ever speaking a word you didn't choose.
Listen
Replies, ready as the question ends.
While you're in a conversation, Rejoin listens alongside you. When someone asks you something, three replies appear — in your style, about your life. Tap one and it's said. Or ignore them all and type.
Sayings
Your words, one tap away.
A board of the things you actually say — big, instant, exactly where you left them. Rejoin notices the phrases you type often and offers to add them. You approve every one.
Routines
Direct your own care.
Bedtime, mornings, transfers — routines speak each step aloud in your voice, at your pace. The person helping you hears you, not a checklist.
Display
Loud room? Show it big.
One tap fills the screen with your message and flips it to face the person across the table. Restaurants, family dinners, hospital rooms — you're still in the room.
Care
The paper logbook, retired.
An optional shared logbook for the people who help you. Two-tap logging, one-minute check-ins, and a handoff note written from the day's facts — never invented. You can turn the whole tab off.
Privacy & trust
Your voice. Your words.
Your data. Yours.
Rejoin sits in the most intimate seat technology can occupy — it speaks for you. That demands stricter rules than ordinary apps live by.

Rejoin started as one family's answer to ALS — built by a son so his dad could keep teasing his grandkids, keep calling the game, keep being himself at the table. Then we built it for every family at that table.
