TD Snap
- TD Snap is a Windows “UWP” app, meaning it doesn’t quite have the same folder and file structure as other software, and launching in the methods that Grid 3 uses isn’t quite so straightforward. Before it was updated to TD Snap, there was a ‘friendly’ name that could be used to make this slightly easier. That’s no longer the case.
- Use Grid’s “Start program” command, set it to launch Windows File Explorer
- Ensure it is set to “Start new” – otherwise you’ll end up with just a File Explorer window
- In the argument have this exact text: shell:appsfolder\TobiiDynavox.Snap_626b2w651dr5w!App
Please see below video on how to set this up –

Changing Pronunciations in TD Snap
If TD Snap is pronouncing a word wrong, you can teach the correct pronunciation. You often need to do this with names of places and people.
- Go to Settings
- Go to User tab
- Scroll down to Pronunciation Exceptions and click the arrow
- Click add pronunciation exception
- Type the word with correct spelling, then type how it sounds
- Click done and exit out of settings
If the pronunciation is still incorrect you need to check the voices that are added to this set of pronunciation exceptions.
- Go to Settings, User tab
- Scroll down to language specific voices and click on the arrow
- Check the voice you are using is on the list, if not click on add voice for another language
- Choose the Language (usually English United States) and the voice you are using.
- Exit Settings

Here’s a quick video from TD UK Alice explaining how to do this by creating a “cancel visit” button:
A person can view their own data through their myTD account. They can choose to download the report and share with others if they choose. A person can share their page set with another myTD account. The recipient will not be able to download a report from their myTD account. They recipient will be able to view button count on the page set itself, from within TD Snap. The data will not be ‘live’, it will just be the button count at the time the page set was shared.
