The NivoTouch app
NivoTouch is built so a person can communicate without creating an account. We do not run a NivoTouch cloud for vocabulary, photos, or recordings. What you add on the board stays on that tablet.
On the device, NivoTouch stores:
- Pages, words, people, phrases, favorites, and recents
- Photos you choose for a person
- Short recordings attached to a word
- Voice, keyboard, and access settings
- A caregiver PIN, kept in the device secret store
Local data is encrypted on the tablet. The PIN only locks caregiver tools. It is not a password you type to open a backup.
The app may ask for:
- Photos, to show a person on the board
- The microphone, to record a short clip for a word
- Device speech, to speak a message
- In-app purchases through Google Play on Android tablets (and Apple when that listing is live)
Backup and restore is a Pro feature. A backup is an encrypted file on the tablet. You choose where that file is kept. NivoTouch does not upload it.
If more than one person uses the same tablet, Pro can keep separate communicators on that device. Those profiles are not stored with us.

You can read about NivoTouch without sending us anything. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell information from this site.
If you use the contact page, we receive the name, email, topic, and message you enter so we can reply. We keep that message only as long as we need it to answer you, or until you ask us to delete it.
The contact page includes a check to reduce automated spam. That check is processed by the provider that supplies it. We do not use it to build a marketing list.
Children and families
NivoTouch is often used with children and other people who need support to communicate. The app does not send their vocabulary, photos, or recordings to this website. Please do not send health records or photos of a communicator through the contact page.
Who else is involved
Apple and Google will process purchases if you buy a plan on the tablet. The company that hosts this website stores the contact messages we receive. We do not share those messages for advertising.
Your choices
On the tablet, you can delete vocabulary, photos, recordings, and the app itself. That removes NivoTouch data from that device. We cannot reach into a tablet from here.
