MyVisualRoutine Is Now on Android
It’s here. MyVisualRoutine is now available on Android.
If you’ve been waiting — and many of you have, patiently, since you first signed up on the waitlist — thank you. You can download it from Google Play today.
Why This Took a Little Longer
When MyVisualRoutine first launched on iOS, the single most common message I received went something like this:
“This looks exactly like what we need. When is it coming to Android?”
Families don’t all live in the same ecosystem. The grandparent who watches the kids two afternoons a week might have an Android phone. The respite worker, the teacher, the other parent — they’re not all on iPhones. And for a tool that’s supposed to be there when you need it, “sorry, wrong phone” is exactly the kind of gap that makes visual supports fail in real life.
So I didn’t want to rush a half-working port out the door. I wanted the Android app to feel like it belonged on Android — and to do everything the iOS version does. Thanks to the testers who jumped in early and told me what was broken, what felt off, and what they loved, it’s ready.
Everything You Get, Now on Android
This isn’t a stripped-down version. It’s the full app:
50+ activities pre-loaded from day one. No hours of setup. Breakfast, getting dressed, brushing teeth, school, playground, bedtime — they’re all there with clear, consistent images. You can start building routines in minutes.
It works offline. Because meltdowns don’t wait for WiFi. Your visual supports are there whether you’re at home, in the car, or at the grocery store.
Privacy-first design. Your family’s data stays on your device. I’m not building a business that profits from selling information about vulnerable children.
Designed for dignity. No cartoon characters that embarrass older kids and adults. Visual supports are lifelong tools for many people with autism, ADHD, Down syndrome, and developmental delays — and the design respects that.
The same choice boards, First/Then boards, and day plans that iOS families have been using are all here, working exactly the same way.
One Family, Every Device
The real win isn’t just “there’s an Android app now.” It’s that visual supports can finally follow your child across everyone’s phone.
Set up a routine once. The same clear, consistent visuals show up whether your child is with you, with a grandparent, or with a support worker — regardless of what phone is in their pocket. That consistency is the whole point. Children with communication challenges thrive on predictability, and a tool that only works on half the devices in their life can’t deliver it.
Thank You to the Testers
I want to say this plainly: the early Android testers shaped this release. You reported the bugs, flagged the rough edges, and told me when something didn’t feel right. This launch is as much yours as mine.

Every Child Deserves a Voice
I built this app because my two non-verbal boys needed it, and because the gap between “visual supports help enormously” and “actually having them on hand when it matters” was too wide.
Bringing it to Android closes that gap for a lot more families. If you know someone — a parent, a teacher, a therapist — who’s been waiting for an Android version, this is the message to forward.
Every child deserves a voice. Now it works on their phone too.
