Purpose: This study aims to present the current state of the art regarding software development for computers, mobile devices, and additional communication devices designed to facilitate socialization for individuals with communication limitations or complete absence of speech. Methods: The research analyzed studies conducted in recent years, focusing on the application of various devices, types of speech impairments, and the effectiveness of communication processes. A systematic review was conducted using the PRISMA Method (Moher et al., 2015) over the past decade (2010-2020), involving the examination of scientific papers published in journals. Results: The analysis of the state of the art revealed advancements in the field, identified research gaps, and outlined areas for improvement. Initially, 3,308 papers were identified, of which 38 were selected after thorough analysis, categorizing them based on the type of technology developed, particularly computational content for mobile or low-tech devices. Conclusion: The examination of the 38 selected articles highlighted a preference for utilizing popular devices such as computers, smartphones, and tablets. The reviewed articles predominantly focused on individuals with conditions like Cerebral Palsy (CP), Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), emphasizing the necessity for democratizing science through the development of free resources for individuals with Complex Communicative Needs (CCN).
