Speech, language and cognitive therapy at home, on your schedule
Constant Therapy is a speech, language, and cognitive therapy app for smartphones and tablets. The app is designed to support people recovering from stroke or other types of brain injury, or for those living with neurological conditions like Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia.
A fresh face that’s all about focus
For years, Constant Therapy has been bringing patients the latest and best brain health exercises. With the 5.0 release we have made it even better. The reimagined Constant Therapy experience is more guided, simplified and goal-oriented so patients can focus on what matters - brain health, for life. I designed a new set of goal icons as well as emojis during assessments for our users to choose their level of difficulty in specific life categories.
Adjusts as you go
Constant Therapy is built on smart technology that adjusts your program as you progress. That way you’re constantly staying challenged at the right level. So as you learn, we learn, and together we get better.
Improved usability
The new Constant Therapy still has all the same great exercises backed by research, but with a new look and feel, clearer instructions, and a new friendly voiceover.
•Made instruction space consistent
•Associated audio controls with instruction text
•Updated header hierarchy with more clarity
•Reskinned to update to current brand guidelines
(89 tasks)
•Created a true visual system for the app to follow

A bridge between iOS and Android users
Collaboration shouldn’t be limited by platform differences. With the redesign of Constant Therapy, we’ve purposefully made the core experience of iOS and Android the same so the experience can seem more like a common language.
