Works great on iPad!

Yo it’s a shame you haven’t tried it on a larger device, this game comes out great on an iPad. I just wish I could get a paid version!

Too many ads right from the start

Too many ads right from the start and the tiles are to small. I can’t even play one game until I saw an ad 👎👎

Need to option without timer

I love this game except the timer. I can practice and have fun but there needs to be an option to remove timer if we want to!!! Please fix this and this game will be even more awesome!!!

Also there are an exorbitant amount of adds. Please fix this as well!!!

It has possibilities, but …

You lost 3 stars from me by putting a timer on this. Timers only add stress to what should be a learning game. I also didn’t bother to even play one game before deleting because of this. Finger spelling made fun doesn’t apply when you stress people out. No fun to be had so no learning to be had.

I’m top 1% of all players in the app

My time 0:49. I’m currently #363 out of 42,919 players :)

It was good…

This used to be a really good game, but then they put ads in and an unnecessary amount of tracking, it collects way too much data about you for no reason.

I agree

All the reviewers saying the graphics are too small and too low-contrast are correct. The size might not even be that much of a problem if the handshapes were, say, bright yellow on a black background or vice-versa, but they're black on a medium gray background - needlessly difficult to make out. And do people really not bother to bend their middle fingers when they sign the letter K? Because this is the second app I've encountered where K is signed with both fingers pointing straight upward, and I've never seen K taught that way. Kind of mystifying to me. But I still have a lot to learn, so maybe I'll learn about that at some point.

TOO SMALL!!

I’m loath to leave a bad review. I am giving two stars because the concept is wonderful and could be so much fun. However, it’s so tiny you can’t see it on a phone. Additionally, it’s FULL of ads!! Long, loud video ads that you can’t skip; and even when the button is there offering to skip, it won’t allow it. I attempted to play one game, viewed two ads and deleted the app! The good news is, it was a free app!

Terrible ads

This app seems really useful, but the ads that you can’t close make it useless. I’d look for something more user friendly.

Eye strain

Great concept but it’s very difficult to see the signs and with the dark background it takes me a long time to identify the letter then the timer kicks me out. Please redesign.

Disappointing

This is full of ads. In fact I couldn’t even get to the ASL word searches because the ads wouldn’t close and kept forcing me to download the games I was trying to close. I removed the App. What’s the point??

Good idea but bad design

It will be fun once he changes the colors in this game! It is very difficult to identify the correct one with dark gray and black! Also, once you get the right word, the line crossing it makes almost impossible to see the square!

Fun, but straining on the eyes

The game is fun and a good way to pass the time. While I doubt it will really help with receptive finger spelling (finger reading I guess) consider how morphed letters get with speed/fluency, but it is good if you’re a beginner and get some letters mixed up. However, my biggest complaint is that the colors aren’t best for such small details — rather than black on gray is should be white on black or something that makes the pictures stand out more without having the squint. I understand the images need to be small to fit more/large enough words so I hope the creators would change or change the art to something bolder for the sake of my eyes. Additionally, there was one instance which one of the words was blank, and because there was no option to not choose a word, the game could never be completed.

Very helpful, but...

Why do I have to watch an ad before I can even start playing? And it can be confusing the first few times to even start the game. Beside that, this is very good to help me learn my asl letters.

Cool, but probably not too useful.

This app is fun as heck, but I doubt it actually helps me comprehend finger spelling any better in real life.

Pretty fun, needs a glow up

I really like this game. It’s nice to be able to train yourself to quickly recognize the letters in sign language. I like the app a lot, however, the format needs a little work because it’s a little ugly and old looking. Like, 2010 old. Just make it look a little nicer and instead of having to click New Game and then Play, you could have it just move into another game after pressing New Game.

If you need to work on your letters and recognizing them, I really recommend this app. It really is a lot of fun!

Disappointed

I was so excited when I saw this in the App Store! But I can’t play it - the pictures are too small for me to see :( Maybe they should have the option of smaller puzzles so the pictures are bigger

This game is awesome!! Except for the advertisements

This game is very helpful and fun. I really like how it times each game so you can get faster. However, the advertisements are VERY inappropriate! My husband and I play this game as well as our kids. We will be deleting this great game because of the extremely inappropriate advertisements.

So much fun

I find this app very fun and addicting. I just wish there were levels and the signs were better outlined because they're kinda hard to see.

Its good but

It has some bugs. For instance, on the puzzle I just completed, it said the word "sound" was on the board but it was no where, I looked very hard. I did find O-S-U-N-D and tried highlighting it, since clearly the first two letters were switched, but it would not accept it. It has helped me learn the last three or four letters I always forget when trying to fingerspell, at least.
