The app only lets you once a day to do one lesson and then that’s it. Also it is kind of expensive. I would recommend sign school. ### 3/5 — Not good but not bad *2026-07-31, version 3.0.3* It’s not horrible but it’s not the best. Instead actually learning the signs we’re looking at the photos and that might help some people in the short term but in retrospect we are just looking photos and that’s not helping learn the actual signs. ### 4/5 — Cool. *2026-07-26, version 3.0.3* I learned a lot with this app, I can form complete sentences in ASL and there’s no ads. The only thing I don’t like is how instead of giving me the last 2 lessons I haven’t done it’s repeating the same lessons that I’ve already done and I don’t want to pay to do the free lessons ### 3/5 — Maybe so, maybe no... *2026-07-17, version 3.0.3* This app is not my fav. It does teach you sign language, but it has an image telling you what the sign is, at the same time as it asks you to tell them what the sign is. It also requires you to sign up for a subscription to do more than 1 lesson a day. You can repeat the same lesson, though, and it has a sign language dictionary. ### 5/5 — Signs expert *2026-07-11, version 3.0.3* I knew all handsigns ### 5/5 — Learning fast *2026-07-11* Learning a lot really quick ### 3/5 — Other apps are better *2026-07-02, version 3.0.3* You can only do one lesson a day without paying and the teaching style is difficult to follow imo ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-06-28, version 3.0.3* very educational ### 2/5 — Ok *2026-06-24, version 3.0.3* What I don’t like about this app is, you can only do one lesson before you have to pay for the rest of the lessons, another thing I don’t like is how it introduce you to so many complicated signs that are not directed for beginners like myself. Also, never taught you how to sign anything it just asked you which one was correct with a picture above the signer basically giving away the answer, as well as there was a hint on the bottom that also gave it away. there were some very few aspects that I liked about this app, but most of it was just either handing you the answer or paying for it. ### 5/5 — Great!! *2026-06-23, version 3.0.3* Great ### 5/5 — Definitely recommend this app if you’re deaf, hard of hearing or hearing wanted to learn ASL *2026-06-20, version 3.0.3* Whatever if you are deaf, hearing, or hard of hearing, you can learn by using pocket sign app ### 4/5 — Mmmmm *2026-06-06, version 3.0.3* Good but sum signs are wrong ### 5/5 — REVIEW *2026-06-04, version 3.0.3* I think this is really good and you should suggest it so some people over the internet. Suggest it using Toctov or YT ### 5/5 — Idk *2026-06-02, version 3.0.3* Love it ### 5/5 — ASK POCKET SIGN *2026-05-29, version 3.0.3* I like learning sign.- Anything that can help me communicate with a deaf girl in my class is very useful. Thanks! ### 5/5 — I am deaf *2026-05-24* Name is Alan Campbell ### 5/5 — Good *2026-05-24, version 3.0.3* I love how this app helps people sign and it is very useful ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Hard *2026-08-20, version 3.0.3* Hard to learn ### 1/5 — Not recommended *2026-07-25, version 3.0.3* This app was giving incorrect answers during multiple-choice questions. Don’t recommend. ### 1/5 — Just why *2026-06-23, version 3.0.3* Why can’t we do all the lessons without paying ### 1/5 — SOME SIGNS ARE WRONG *2026-04-27, version 3.0.3* I do not recommend getting this app. Some of the signs are wrong or out dated. It told me the wrong sign for physics and my ASL teacher told that the sign showed was a slur. ### 1/5 — Pay to Learn *2026-04-12, version 3.0.3* They provide you one random lesson every twenty four hours to learn, and you can’t go back to the old lessons or access anything else without paying. If I was going to need a subscription, I wish they would have said that in the beginning. ### 1/5 — ASL grammar *2026-04-09, version 3.0.3* This app doesn’t follow ASL GRAMMAR CORRECTLY. Grammar is extremely important. ### 1/5 — You have to pay *2026-03-24, version 3.0.3* I was enjoying it until it ask to pay. So upsetting ### 1/5 — Terrible *2026-03-10, version 3.0.3* You get one free lesson that Barely teaches you anything and then the rest of the lessons are blocked by a paywall ### 1/5 — I’m poor *2026-03-07, version 3.0.3* Unfortunately u have to pay to get the hol thing it’s not worth it trust me ### 1/5 — Don’t want to pay *2026-03-07* I did the free trial and it wanted me to pay for the rest and the app was laggy😡😡 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ghgfgg *2026-08-22, version 3.0.3* I’m deaf and this is really helping me ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2026-08-20, version 3.0.3* I’m going to be taking an ASL course in the fall so I just wanted review and learn a little on my own. So far so good. It easy to use and understand ### 5/5 — 🤗 *2026-08-19, version 3.0.3* Love it!!!🥰 ### 5/5 — ASL *2026-08-08, version 3.0.3* So good I learn so much from this app ### 5/5 — Fluent *2026-07-30, version 3.0.3* I like knowledge and wisdom learning ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-29, version 3.0.3* Best ASL app I’ve found, love using it! ### 5/5 — 5 stars!! *2026-07-22, version 3.0.3* I love this app and love signing. I wanted to learn asl because my best friend is deaf and I want to communicate with her ### 5/5 — ASL *2026-07-15, version 3.0.3* Love it ❣️ ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2026-07-15, version 3.0.3* So fun, immediately engaging and an incredible learning and reference resource. Thank you 🤟 ### 5/5 — It’s fun but needs some improvements. *2026-07-12, version 3.0.3* I love it and I like how they give 1 free lesson everyday! The only thing that’s bad is that when you click on a lesson you didn’t do on the flashcards it gives a little pop up saying something non understanding on the top it says, “You Need to do the” and on the bottom it says, “[insert lesson name here] lesson first.” Which makes me think this app is a little bit of a knockoff of ASL Bloom. Although the app is great and there’s no ads at all! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
