Our verdict on First Then Visual Schedule HD

First Then Visual Schedule HD is an iPhone and iPad app for parents, teachers, therapists and adults who benefit from visual supports. It creates first-then boards, visual schedules, task analyses, social stories, choice boards and video models. The vendor identifies developmental disabilities including autism among the populations that may benefit. Its scope suits people who need one mobile workspace for preparing structured visual guidance rather than a tool centered on academic practice or AAC.

The app’s standout strength is the depth of its schedule-building tools. Users can customize schedules with photos from multiple sources and recorded sound, set timers for an entire schedule or individual steps, and choose among five viewing formats, including checklist and drag-and-drop modes. Steps can be edited, moved, deleted, hidden or saved as templates. Choice boards with two to eight choices and video clips for modeling can be attached directly to schedule steps, while stock images and 10,000 Smarty Ears symbols provide starting materials. Schedules can also be printed or shared by email.

Its ecosystem fit is practical for Apple-centered workflows: the listed integrations are iCloud, Dropbox and AirDrop, and deployment is mobile on iOS. Support channels are email and community. The trade-offs are a paid model without a free plan, iOS-only availability, and no AAC support in the category specification. Choose it if detailed visual schedules, step timers, social stories and embedded choices or videos are central to your work. Consider another autism learning app if you need AAC features, non-iOS access or academic practice capabilities.
