Considering the User’s Cognitive Capabilities
It’s important to consider the user’s current and potential
cognitive capabilities—his or her current literacy level and
emerging literacy.

Additional Considerations
When choosing a vocabulary, keep these additional
considerations in mind.
Screen orientation
Some individuals may work best with pages displayed in
landscape orientation, while others may do better in portrait
orientation.
Visual issues
Some people will work best with symbols, while others may do
better with pictures.
Customization
Each individual has unique capabilities. To accommodate these
capabilities, the system allows you to modify buttons, pages,
and settings to best suit the device user.
Customizations can be done directly on the device or by using
Chat Editor running on a computer.
