A voice for
everyone.
Anan turns symbols into speech — an offline-first AAC app for people who find speaking hard. The communicator’s voice is free and never locks.
Try the live board just below — tap a word and Anan speaks it aloud.
Say it, and it’s heard.
This is the real thing — tap words, press Speak, and change the look without a tile ever moving. Turn on switch-scanning to drive it by ear.
Real Anan symbols (Mulberry set) and category colours. In the app you can also choose Built-in, Classic, Bold and Soft symbol styles — and no tile ever moves when you switch.
Free & offline
Installs on any phone, tablet, Chromebook or computer and works with no internet. Cost should never be the reason someone has no voice — for the communicator, Anan is free forever.
Private insights
See which words are used most, and how vocabulary grows over time in tap-through trend charts — to guide vocabulary, never to test the person. Always calculated on the device.
NDIS-ready reports, built in
Organises what was recorded — usage counts, goal notes, vocabulary change — into a plan-review structure the treating clinician completes and signs.
Your words & language
Add family names, foods and places — and words in your home language, First Nations or CALD vernacular, with custom pronunciation.
Six free symbol sets
Choose how words look — the original Anan Built-in set, three complete 207-symbol styles (Classic, Bold and Soft), or the 2,903-symbol open Mulberry library — and switch the look any time without a single tile moving. Every set is free.
Grammar that grows
Press and hold a word for its forms — eat → eating / ate, dog → dogs, big → bigger / biggest / very big. Single words become real sentences, with only the forms Anan is sure of.
Six symbol sets. All free.
Same word, your look — switch any time, and no tile ever moves. Here’s eat in each set.

See Anan in motion.
A first tap, a first word out loud. This is what it looks like when a voice arrives — nothing reshuffles, the message is simply spoken.

Some voices don’t begin with sound.
They begin with a tap.

The voice is free. Forever.
Boards, speaking, typing, switch access and “I need…” never cost anything and are never locked. Optional carer & clinician tools start at A$6.99/week, with a 14-day free trial of those tools.
Anan is an accessibility tool, not a medical device and not NDIS-endorsed. Supports may be funded where reasonable and necessary — talk to your planner or support coordinator.
