Austin Assessment app

A fun and simple card matching game that is also a screening tool for cerebral visual impairment (CVI) related visual issues. Two versions of the app are available with different packages: one for families and personal use, one for professionals.

The Austin Assessment Family App

The Austin Assessment Family App is for individuals and families. Download for free from the App Store and purchase one screening test at a time via in-app purchases. Once one screening has been purchased, unlimited access to the game mode will also become available. This is fun and may help the child get better at dealing with visual complexity. Note that you should only use game mode after the child has completed the screening test, as this can invalidate the result.

The Austin AssessmentFamily app can only be used on the iPhone or iPad you downloaded it onto.

The Austin Assessment Work App

The Austin Assessment Work App has been developed for both individual professionals and teams screening multiple children. The package includes use on multiple devices by multiple professionals if needed.  

Along with the screenings, you get corresponding reports and access to the online Austin Assessment hub, which displays all screenings. On the hub, you can search for individual screenings and export data as a .CSV file.

The Austin Assessment Work App can be downloaded for free from the App Store.

Accuracy of results

Validation and age

The Austin Assessment has been validated for children aged 5-18. If you want to assess a child under 5, you will only be provided with their results from the screening. Similarly, if you’re over 18 and want to complete the screening, please note that it hasn’t been validated for adults yet.

Game mode

Note that you should only use game mode after the child has completed the screening, as this can invalidate the result.
