About Us

Sensory App House creates software tools and apps for learning support, coordination ,relaxation, early learner art, communication and speech therapy. Our apps can be used by professional therapists and educators to help people with visual, reading, speech development and sensory issues.

Our app store apps have been mostly for free, and we are delighted to have had over 8 million downloads over the years. Thanks for your support!

We have a strong understanding of disabilities and difficulties, and make apps to help assist, even in the smallest of ways. Many of the cause and effect and communication apps are fully switch accessible.

Sensory Readable, Sensory Scribe and Sensory Boards are the latest software releases from Sensory App House Ltd and are the creation of Paul Blenkhorn, Emeritus Professor of Assistive Technology at Manchester University. Paul, the creator of ClaroRead in 2004, Paul also developed the first Windows Narrator tool for Microsoft, which helps blind users access Windows using speech.

We develop for many platforms - iPads/iPhones, Chromebooks, Android, Web Apps, Windows and Mac. Please contact us about licensing and partnerships.

Sensory App House was founded by Professor Paul Blenkhorn and Dave Stevens, who also both co-founded reading and writing assistive software specialist Claro Software Ltd.
