### 3/5 — Not what I expected

*2017-10-19, version 1.1.2*

Searched makaton.
This is unfortunately not makaton and not what I have introduced to my baby to already. App looks good but it’s no use to me.

### 5/5 — Lanarkshire and South Glasgow

*2017-09-30, version 1.1.2*

Fantastic app for quickly finding signs used in class to practice at home either before or after a sing and sign song in class or just to practice everyday signs helping develop your little ones early communication skills.

### 5/5 — Fabulous!!

*2017-09-29, version 1.1.2*

Fantastic app really easy to use. Lovely for parents to refresh signs at home and practice them in class!

### 5/5 — Fantastic baby signing app!

*2017-09-29, version 1.1.2*

I love this app - really easy to use, and great to be able to actually see the signs in action!  It's so simple to search for a particular word and I like that you can make a favourites list too. The little video clips are great to show Daddy and other family members too, as repetition really is the key to successful baby signing and it's wonderful to have the whole family involved!!

### 5/5 — Becky campbell

*2017-09-29, version 1.1.2*

Fantastic app!!! Helped me learn the signs to say hello to the sun and I've picked up on some useful ones for using at home.

### 5/5 — Simple signs for babies

*2017-09-28, version 1.1.2*

A great wee app for introducing signs you and your baby can use together. Very simple to use and contains all the essential signs you're likely to need in the first year or two of your baby's life. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2017-09-28, version 1.1.2*

Just perfect. I'd seen the Baby Sensory book in class but this is so much easier. The bold colours and clear direction are amazing. This is great. I can't wait to see my little one signing away and communicating with the whole family.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2017-09-28, version 1.1.2*

A great app to refresh your memory after class, to continue signing at home.
The signs are clear and the app is easy to use.

### 5/5 — Easy to follow signing

*2017-09-27, version 1.1.2*

Great app, easy to use and understand a wonderful way to take Baby Sensory home with you.

### 5/5 — Fabulous app!

*2017-09-27, version 1.1.2*

Very easy to navigate your way around which is really important for parents who are short on time! 
The signing tips are handy & the Say Hello signs are wonderfully easy to find on the app home page.

### 1/5 — No signs or songs

*2022-09-21, version 2.0*

I just paid $5.99 for an app with no content. Complete rip off. 1 star is too many stars.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-12-01, version 2.0*

Really disappointed. I expected more than typing a word and a demonstration of how that word is signed (and not even in BSL). I think I expected more of an “education” on how to use them/introduce them to baby. Also the songs just show signs for certain words in the song so if you don’t know how the songs sound this is useless (you can listen to the songs but only if sign up to Spotify etc).

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-07-04, version 2.0*

Just purchased and really disappointed with the lack of words available. 
I would not have bought.
Some random words unlikely to use, but others that would be typical and everyday aren’t here

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money!

*2019-02-11, version 1.2.4*

All of the signs are completely wrong. Even ‘hello’ is wrong!

### 1/5 — Not worth the money

*2018-06-20, version 1.2*

The app is easy to use, but the number of words are limited so really not worth the money.

### 2/5 — I can’t use 165 of 248 signs (66%)

*2020-02-18, version 2.0*

To help the users who are wanting to learn British signs, most of the signs on this app aren’t completely appropriate but the following signs are OK:

aeroplane, baby, banana, ball, bed, bicycle, big, big bed, bird, biscuit, black, blanket, blue, boat, book, bottle, breastfeeding, broken, bubble, bye, car, chair, cheese, child, clean, cold, come, cuddly toy, day, drawing, drink, dry, duck, elephant, face, film, fish, fork, girl, give, hat, hear, hello, help, here, house, hungry, hush, I, ice cream, idea, ill, inside, little, man, me, mittens, night, no, orange, outside, paper, pig, round, sailor, same, sand, shop, sign, sister, sky, sleep, sorry, stand, TV, teacher, time, tree, white, winter, yellow, you.

For the 165 words in this app that shouldn’t be copied by BSL learners, you can find correct British signs from Deaf Books, Spread the Sign, BSL Signbank, Famlingo, Sign BSL, British-Sign.

Although the functionality of the app is good and user friendly, only a third of the signs (83 out of 248) signs are from British Sign Language (BSL). As someone in the UK, I think it’s important that the signs used as a communication tool are also signs that are part of a recognised language used in the UK. This will help with communication with the wider community and when children are in UK schools. Most of the signs in this app aren’t useful for this or are American signs, which British sign language users don’t use.

The signs in this app may only be intended for members of the Baby Sensory community but it would be good if the app displayed a disclaimer to inform all users that the majority of the signs aren’t correct for BSL or are based on another country’s signs.

Any signs will work as a communication tool but for those wanting to learn official British signs, it would be helpful to let users know which 1/3 of the signs are from BSL and that 2/3 of the signs (165 out of 248) are shouldn’t be copied.

A few other things that might be help for the developers to know: There is a video glitch on a couple of the videos; are, how, you. Some of the signs go off the screen and you can’t see them fully. The sign for tomorrow is going the wrong direction.

Aside from the content, it’s a cool app and I like the design! It’s just a shame that most of the signs aren’t transferable to British Sign Language.

Best wishes

### 2/5 — Little disappointing

*2019-09-05, version 2.0*

I would not have bought this app had I known there wouldn’t be many signs.  The signs for Good morning, Good night, Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, bedroom or room, which seem to be everyday basic words are not part of the app.  
Also, the app sells itself by saying there are songs on the app.  Perhaps it should have been specified there are only 4!! 
So for paying for this, it wasn’t worth that amount of money.

### 3/5 — No signing videos for the songs

*2019-06-10, version 2.0*

I was hoping for a video of someone signing whilst the song is playing so that I am teaching bub the right way.
Yes some are in the individual word list, but not all.
Worth considering for next update🤷‍♀️

### 3/5 — Great app but needs more songs

*2019-05-04, version 2.0*

It’s a great app and love teaching my little one to communicate, but it’s really pricey for so few songs. There are so many songs in the baby sensory classes, I expected them all (or at least more than just 5!) to be on the app. Bit disappointing.

### 3/5 — Ok...

*2018-05-09, version 1.1.2*

I feel like for the price paid it would have a lot more signs. 
For example, basic things like “more”, “finished”, “banana” are missing. Even “because”, which is in the Say Hello song is missing. 
Hopefully some more will be added as they expand the app.

### 5/5 — Needs BSL letters section

*2025-06-05*

Arguably the best minimal sign application on smartphones, only lacking the alphabet in BSL which would make many of the signs easier to remember.

### 5/5 — Lovely app

*2022-11-11, version 2.0*

Got the app after attending the classes. The signs are a combination of makaton and asl.
As I teacher I’ve used many of the signs and found the app great at refreshing my memory and teaching my son. Not really useful if you want bsl but, this is much easier to teach babies and makaton is commonly used in UK primary schools anyway.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2018-10-07, version 1.2.3*

Love this app, it’s taught me and my baby how to communicate with each other!

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2017-11-22, version 1.1.2*

This app is so easy to use and makes signing at home with your baby so much easier! I like how you can see the sign in slow motion by holding your finger down and moving across the screen which enables you to see clearly how to do it. Would highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2017-11-21, version 1.1.2*

This app is so useful and easy to use. It shows the sign in a very clear way. The music behind some of the signs links it nicely to the Say Hello to the sun song from classes. Highly recommend

### 5/5 — Excellent baby signing app

*2017-11-08, version 1.1.2*

Great to be able to learn and remind yourself of signs at home. Also fab for showing your other half so they can join in the fun. So easy to search for signs with really clear demonstrations.

### 5/5 — Fantastic Signing App!

*2017-10-20, version 1.1.2*

A simple & effective baby signing app which is really straight forward to use! Having attended baby Sensory I've found this invaluable in prompting my memory to recall signs used in class as well as demonstrating many new ones! Love it! My little one is now 2 years old and uses signing on a regular basis thanks to Baby Sensory!

### 5/5 — Manchester Mum Kerry

*2017-10-17, version 1.1.2*

It's an efficient easy way to learn different signs to communicate with your baby. I tried to learn Signing from a book but have transferred to using this App. I've learnt the signs much quicker physically seeing a person doing the actions. The App works in the most simplistic way. You feel like super mum when your baby signs back to you 👌

### 5/5 — Autism

*2017-10-16, version 1.1.2*

Great little app I use for my 7 y/o non-verbal autistic boy for the basics as part of his total communication program. Saves having to search on youtube. Great for a quick reference with approx 165 words to date. An easy app to use that has very clear demonstrations that he can watch, copy and use himself.

### 5/5 — Love this app at Baby Sensory Edinburgh east

*2017-10-01, version 1.1.2*

This is a fabulous go to app for Mums and dads as well as class leaders, it's a simple straightforward app with clear demonstrations of the signs.  Very easy to use.  Highly recommend for developing signing with babies 💚💛
