I asked the makers of Porloquo2Go whether anybody has any experience of using this software on the iPhone to conduct a phone call. This is what they say:

"Let me answer that question. I know that some of our beta testers used Proloquo2Go for phone conversations. There are a few things to know:

1. It is not perfect, but seems to work reasonably well.

2. Make sure you have your speaker volume high

3. You need to first start the call, then turn on Speaker phone on the iPhone and then launch Proloquo2Go

4. You should hold your phone such that it bounces off the speaker sound of your body, a table, or whatever is around. How well your communication partner at the other end of the line understands you is affected by how you hold your phone. If you just hold it in mid-air the voice will not be heard that clearly, but if you bounce it off something (say your body by holding the phone in front of you at a slight angle) it works pretty well. some home experimentation is probably good to find the best way for you to hold your phone.

5. I do not expect it to work very well in noise environments at either end of the phone line, but maybe some people who have used it in practice can chime in here.
