What is already known on the subject There are a few (as far as is known, three) applications developed in English for cognitive-communication disorders due to dementia. What this study adds to the existing literature In this study, for the first time in Turkish, mobile-compatible software has been developed for both cognitive and communication disorders that is specific to individuals with AD and can be used by individuals at all stages of the disease. The effects of the application we developed on the cognitive-communication skills of individuals with AD were shown in a randomised controlled trial. What are the potential or actual clinical implications of this work? Using the app can help people with all stages of AD keep their cognitive and communication skills and have a better prognosis in terms of cognitive-communication skills, especially grammar and orientation.
