Ask for a sensory break
Start with the full script visible. Go deeper only when it feels useful.
Hangar · autism-affirming social rehearsal · available now
Choose the school, work, family, online or everyday moment that comes next. Rehearse it privately by voice or typing, then replay the other person’s possible signals — without a score for eye contact, tone, pauses or stimming.
Every authored rehearsal and every safety feature is included. Premium lifts the weekly limit; your local App Store price is shown before purchase.
No account · no advertising or cross-app tracking · raw voice stays on the device.
Start with the full script visible. Go deeper only when it feels useful.
Start with the moment that comes next
The lunch table. A changed plan. A first shift. Saying no. Pick one of 41 authored rehearsals and make the next real moment a second try, not the first.
The Flight Path
The full script stays visible. Rehearse a first line, a next move, and an exit with the least uncertainty.
Cue cards replace the script. Your teen chooses their own words, with a prompt there when they want it.
Go off-script and meet a variation. The controls remain: pause, type instead, or leave at any point.
Ground-crew scenarios also let teens warm up on everyday machines — including self-checkout, ticket machines, an ATM, a laundromat washer and automated phone menus.
Autism-affirming by architecture
Hangar rehearses a situation. It does not train a teen to perform to someone else’s script, and it does not turn comfort or body language into a score.
Eye contact, tone, pauses and stimming are never graded.
Replays can name the character’s misread instead of turning every mismatch into your teen’s mistake.
They choose the goal, voice or typing, practice depth, sensory settings and when the scene ends.
Nothing empties, resets or nags them back. Leaving early always counts.
Private by design
Speech becomes text on the iPhone or iPad and the audio is discarded immediately — it is never uploaded or stored.
The authored scenario state, practice goal, and current and prior turn text go through our AWS service to OpenAI — with no name, email or account. Read the exact data flow and retention boundaries.
No account, advertising or cross-app tracking. Goals, flights and the logbook stay on the device; content-free service diagnostics expire after 30 days.
Straight answers
Yes. The free plan includes three flights each week, all 41 authored rehearsals and every safety feature. Premium only lifts the weekly limit; the App Store shows your current local price before purchase.
No. Hangar is designed as a general-wellness practice tool. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace professional care.
No. Voice and typing are equal paths, captions are available, and a teen can pause, switch to typing or stop a flight at any time.
No. Characters exist only inside bounded authored scenarios that end. They do not message first or build a personal profile between flights.
No. Hangar is private rehearsal, not crisis monitoring or emergency support. If someone is in immediate danger, contact local emergency services.
