What is the purpose of assessing user feedback continuously?

The purpose of assessing user feedback continuously is fundamentally to tailor the device to evolving user needs. Continuous feedback allows developers and practitioners to understand how users interact with AAC devices in real-world settings, enabling adjustments and improvements based on actual usage and challenges faced by users. As preferences, capabilities, and contexts can change over time, ongoing assessment ensures that the device remains relevant, functional, and supportive of the user’s communication goals. This user-centered approach not only enhances user satisfaction but also improves overall effectiveness and engagement with the AAC device.
