About PlayButton
PlayButton is a simple app that provides the most minimal record and playback experience possible. One record button, one play button, and one sound at a time. If you need a quick way to record a sound and play it back, it doesn't get simpler than this.
Used in therapy for special needs students who have physical problems with pressing small buttons, this app allows the user to participate with their sound.
For additional control over the interface a "lock" functionality is available from the device's Settings that allows a recorded sound to be locked, removing the record buttons until the app is unlocked.
If you choose to support PlayButton through a small in-app annual subscription, the Terms of Service are governed by Apple's standard terms, as specified here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Updated for iOS 12+ compatibility. Unfortunately, that means some very old devices may no longer with newer versions. However, there is no new functionality in this release, and version 1.1 should continue to function on older devices indefinitely.
