## What is Auslan Tutor 2?

Whether you want to learn a new way to communicate with a deaf or hard of hearing loved one or are just interested in learning sign language—Auslan Tutor 2 is the best place to begin.

Start your learning for free with the Key Signs 1 pack, featuring more than 100 of the most popular and commonly used signs. Then, grow your library as you learn through extension packs that are relevant to you and your life.

Easily find the sign you're looking for by searching our library with an English keyword, the sign handshape, or location. All signs link to a range of helpful information on location, shape, usage, and grammar, to help you learn the language. This information is displayed on screen along with a handy video guide.

We will regularly update our library and add more signs via in-app purchases, so keep up to date with changes in our shop section.

Key features of the new and improved application are:

- new signs, including up-to-date key signs, specific behaviour signs, descriptive signs, mathematics, and more
- the ability to save your favourite signs and keep track of signs you are learning or want to learn
- an improved search mechanism that allows you to search signs by handshape, body location, and state location
- a video feature, which includes the ability to loop, slow down, and show variants of each sign
- a daily 'sign of the day’ notification
- the ability to browse signs by category
- an enhanced alphabet and numbers display – and much more.

The Auslan Tutor 2 app was developed by language and technology experts at NextSense, in consultation with our community. The app features well-respected deaf teacher and 2020 Deaf Australian of the Year, Shirley Lui.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-02-06*

An important app let down by a bad UX. Seems impossible to replay a video after watching the first time, unless you exit to menu and reselect the word. Doesn’t seem to understand screen size variation as UI elements sometimes cover system functions like the battery indicator. I’m eager to learn AUSLAN and this is just not up to scratch. Even more disappointing as I paid for sign packs. Happy to update review if these very basic usability issues are resolved.

### 1/5 — Couldn't create an account to get started.

*2024-06-01*

The app looks promising, but requires that you create an account to download the free signs pack.

Unfortunately, the app wouldn't allow me to do so, and I was stuck at the account creation page, pressing on the blue "create account" button to no avail. I tried closing and reopening the app, with the same result :/

### 4/5 — Great app but need improvement

*2023-12-19*

As titled, there are multiple areas that need improvement, but still one of the best app to learn Auslan with.

Some suggestions:
- for the test of knowledge, after you answer a wrong answer, the correct answer should be shown immediately.

- a category for the words you got wrong during the test

### 1/5 — Unable to register

*2023-09-06*

I was unable to register
Then kept getting kicked out of the app

### 3/5 — Need to include a “flipped camera” feature.

*2023-05-03*

Is it possible to include a feature to view the presenter flipped as opposed to mirror image? It’s very confusing to view them front-on as it’s hard to tell which hand your supposed to be using.

### 1/5 — Can’t create an account

*2023-04-07*

I tried tp create an account many times but it keeps coming up woth an error

### 1/5 — Error

*2023-02-06*

Error alert every time I try to sign up.

If you could please contact us at apps@nextsense.org.au, with details of the issue you are having, we can look into this for you. Thank you

### 3/5 — Possible update

*2023-02-03*

Is it possible to make somewhere to request words and anything else, I’ve gotten this app to try be inclusive to those who come to my work place and there’s so many things are not on here that would be very helpful and actually make sense to use!

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for your feedback. Yes, we do have a section in the app where you can request words. You can find this on the Settings page, under "Request a sign/word". We regularly review these requests, and it helps us when compiling new word packs.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-01-31*

I have Auslan tutor so I wanted to get Auslan tutor 2 but can’t sign in, so I made an account. It keeps saying there is an error every time, please fix this! Thanks for reading  Have a great day :)

Ignore previous review, works amazingly to build your vocab in Auslan!!
I didn’t need to sign in, just opened the app a few days later.

### 2/5 — Shame for those who supported v1

*2022-11-29*

I paid for the full signbank in the original app, so its a shame that you decided to add annoying pop up advertisements to that app to deter original purchasers from still using it.

Also a shame there's no way to recognise those original purchases without paying for all the signs again.

I'm sure it's a good app, just doesn't feel good for long time supporters.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, and for supporting our app. Based on our user feedback, we've built new features into Auslan Tutor, including a learning section, favourites, filtering by handshapes, and more. Auslan Tutor 2 now contains nearly 1500 signs, that can be purchased and downloaded as in-app purchase sign packs. We will be further growing this library of signs into the future.
