Answer in one tap
Tap YES or NO β the board shows and speaks your answer, big enough for anyone to see.
What it does
Sometimes all you need is a reliable "yes" and "no". The Yes / No board gives you two large, unmissable options so you can answer questions quickly β in a doctorβs waiting room, at the checkout counter, or during a conversation that is moving too fast. It removes the need to speak entirely and can be pointed to, tapped, or even indicated with eye gaze.

Zero typing and zero word-finding pressure
Works with pointing, tapping, or eye gaze
Ideal in medical, emergency and busy settings
The perfect companion to any other board
How to use it
- 1 Position the board where you can see it
Hold it in front of you, place it on a table, or keep it visible on your phone screen.
- 2 Let the other person ask one question at a time
A good rule to share: ask one yes/no question and wait for the answer before the next.
- 3 Indicate your answer
Point to "Yes" or "No", tap the button on screen, nod, or look at the option you choose.
- 4 Use it alongside other tools
After a "yes", you can switch to a communication board or phrase board to add more detail.
Practical tips
- Make the two options visually distinct β big letters, high contrast and clear colours help.
- Keep a printed card in your wallet for moments when your phone is out of reach.
- Agree on a signal in advance with family or carers, such as "look up for yes".
FAQ
Is a yes/no board really necessary if I have a full board?
Yes β it is faster. When a simple answer is all that is needed, finding the exact word on a full board takes effort. A two-option board is instant.
Can it be used by people who cannot point?
Absolutely. The board works with eye gaze, blinking signals, or a partner reading your eyes, which is why it is common in hospital and care settings.
Should I still answer in words if I can?
Use whatever feels right in the moment. The board exists to reduce pressure, not to take speech away from you.
