AeroText

AeroText™ is an Android™ application that allows users to text message through an Android phone using their PRC-Saltillo device and a Bluetooth connection. A user can text message using the vocabulary and access method on their device.

**Due to the wide variety of Android phones and operating systems, PRC-Saltillo is unable to guarantee functionality with a specific phone or operating system version. We recommend testing your specific phone/ current operating system prior to relying on AeroText for texting through your AAC device.
