American not Australian

you have to pay

Great tool for beginning and intermediate learners

I love this app! I have been working on ASL for eight months now, and started using this app right near the start. The app helped me learn to fingerspelling and quickly learn a few phrases I could use right away. Now that I’m taking ASL classes, and have the basics of fingerspelling, numbers, greetings, etc down, I use the app frequently as a dictionary, to search a word or phrase I’ve forgotten or haven’t learned. I have the add on packs. Definitely worth it. Hope to see more added too!

It was okay

Overall the app was okay...
Most of the subjects you had to purchase which I didn’t like because there are plenty of other ASL apps and videos that don’t need to be paid for, but other than that the signers were pretty funny and it was nice to see that they actually looked like they cared about the signs and had fun instead of looking bored and being half hearted when making these.

Lack of Customization and Emphasis on Parts of Speech

To whom it may concern,

First and foremost let me say that I would have rated this app 5 stars, considering it is the best media resource I have found for learning American Sign Language. However it does not allow users to create playlists, or folders, to store and sort their vocabulary words or phrases that they learn while using the app. Customization is important so we can review the signs that we are learning. Additionally, I think it would be very helpful to make content in regards to different parts of speech, especially verbs, prepositions, and adjectives. This way learners can learn more basic signs as we create new sentences, or rather as we learn how to sign.

As a purchased pack customer I hope that you are already working on making the app more personal by allowing users to create playlists, or folders, to store their signs.

Thank you for your time, and amazing product,

Hopeful customer

Paid full price and it stopped working with new update

There is a glitch sometimes, but I noticed that if I reinstall this purchase from apple store, it works again.

Previous downloads unavailable

I downloaded this app on my previous phone and purchased the bundle, which was great. I learned so much so fast and was so pleased with the app. However, when I got a new phone and downloaded the app, I tried to reinstall the pack as I had previously purchased it, but it wouldn’t let me. I contacted the developers but they said I should make sure my ID is correct. It is, but I still can’t get my previous purchases back??

Crash, crash, crash

Your app keeps crashing. I’ve turned my iPad off then again and your app keeps crashing. I’m having no problems with any of my other apps, just yours. I clicked on app support it took me to the ‘404’ page which tells me the page does not exist. It is suggested to click on the home page where there is no way to reach customer support. I paid for several packages within your app that I can’t reach and you have taken down your support page. How should I view this situation?

Not that great

As an ASL major I wanna say this app is garbage. Even if you look past the fact that you have to buy the full thing, it is grammatically incorrect. Granted a lot of it is just teaching you one word at a time, but when ever there is a complete sentence it is clear that a “deaf” person, as the developers claim, did not help with the making of this at all. When signing “What is your name” the singer uses typical speaking sentence structure. To a deaf individual it would be as if Yoda were talking to them. The words would be all over the place. Better off buying a book or actually taking a class.
