Resumen:
Some students with autism may have difficulty acquiring mathematical knowledge. However, the use of technology could help them to understand this knowledge more easily. This study therefore aims to obtain a list of mobile applications with mathematical content that are not only recommendable for users with autism, but can also be used by them in an autonomous manner. To this end, 44 applications were chosen, which were used by 28 students with autism in Primary and Secondary Education. On the one hand, it was found that satisfying the accessibility criteria does not guarantee the suitability of the application for this type of user, since 15.9% of the applications chosen could not be fully used by the trial group with autonomy below 50%. On the other hand, a list is provided of 38 applications with mathematical content, recommended or highly recommended for users with autism, 29 of which can be used by them autonomously.
