Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can cause social impairments as well as the limit the potential for the individual to achieve independence (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2013). The use of technology to support learning in individuals with ASD has been well documented, however gaps exist in the pedagogical approaches that are being used. Future research opportunities into the pedagogical implications of this app are highlighted.
