The Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a development disturb which is characterized by alterations that are present since early ages, with multiples and variables impacts in relevant areas from human development, as communication, social interaction, learning and adaptation capacity. Studies show that children diagnosed with ASD like technology as any other children, and it is used as a helping tool in the treatment of this disorder. This research brings up a recommendation review for ASD children software development from bibliographical research and from a field research. The field research consisted in ASD children observations interacting with technology at a specialized clinic in ASD treatment and questionnaires application to specialized professionals and ASD children responsible. The result analyzes confirms 12 recommendations found in bibliographical research and proposes 6 new recommendation, which can be used in software development for ASD children.
