About Tecla Access
Tecla is a set of tools that provides access to mobile devices, such as smartphones and tablets, for those who are unable to manipulate them due to disease or disability.

The Tecla App is an input method that enables external switch access to Android. It integrates tightly with the operating system enabling access to most of its functions.
Tecla supports wireless control of Android, via an on-screen keyboard, directly from a powered wheelchair or standard ability switches connected to a Tecla Shield:

Simple to set up and use with sip'n'puff, easy to understand manuals and if you’re having trouble setting up then there are instructions on their website. I'm a C3-C4 quadriplegic and can only use one switch, and this works perfect. I think that it's great that they're always evolving and helping us disabled stay up to date with technology. The only con is knowing if it will or wont work with your device without trying it out. But their forum about compatible devices is growing! Thank you Tecla! Cody Ackert

Tecla Access has allowed me to finally to use a cell phone. Until now I had to rely on others to make calls, write emails and texts. This has given me the power to call who I want when I want and the peace of mind knowing I can call for help.
