I would like this app if you didn't have to pay to get the full information needed. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2014-11-23, version 1.2.1* This is a perfect starter app! Great for everyone of any age! ### 5/5 — Best app I've found *2014-10-26, version 1.2.1* Excellent. I've gone through quite a few similar programs, but this one actually shows you AND explains what they're doing with their hands orally. ### 3/5 — Ok *2014-07-03, version 1.2.1* Needs more content, but good concept with the videos and explanations. ### 5/5 — Great for parents *2014-06-11, version 1.2.1* This is a useful app with a great selection of signs. The videos for each sign are clear and well organized so they can be found easily. ### 5/5 — Great App *2014-03-30, version 1.2.1* It's well worth it to spend the $3 for the full program. The signers are awesome (nice personalities) and their instruction and verbal tips are perfect. It has every useful sign I could think of. The App is well-designed and very easy to navigate. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2014-01-28, version 1.2.1* Lots of useful terms accompanied by helpful demonstrative videos. Great for parents to learn and teach asl to baby/infant. ### 5/5 — perfect! *2014-01-14, version 1.2.1* All that you need to get started with signs for your baby. Will definitely upgrade to paid version once my baby is older and we have the need for more than just the basic signs. ### 5/5 — Great ap *2013-10-30, version 1.2.1* This is the best sign language ap in the store. It's very easy to understand and follow. I'm so impressed that I am gonna buy the upgrade. I just hope it has a lot more words ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2013-09-18, version 1.1* I have a 5 month old and have been teaching him sign language since day one! I love this app it have taught me more and so now I can help my son more. It also helps you with the facial expressions that a lot of others not tell you about ### 5/5 — Two thumbs up *2013-08-25, version 1.1* Couldn't be easier. Great app for baby and me to learn with ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not useful *2021-07-21, version 1.2.4* Pretty bad. For some reason doesn’t include the written word in the dictionary, just a picture. ### 1/5 — No accessibility to deaf parents *2018-09-12, version 1.2.2* How can we understand when you speak and it has no captions? 🙄 ### 1/5 — Worthless *2018-08-11, version 1.2.2* If you have no desire for your child to have words that are part of everyday routines and activities get this app. If you want useful signs, go elsewhere. ### 1/5 — So few words *2018-07-14, version 1.2.2* If you want your child’s vocabulary predetermined, get this app. If your child is a free thinking organism, get something else. Many words that we were excited to teach our kid weren’t included. ### 1/5 — Do not get! *2016-04-07, version 1.2.1* I would rate this 0 stars if I could. They make you buy the full version if you want all of the good stuff, they don't even have the alphabet on here unless you pay for it. Thumbs down! 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻 ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2012-06-25, version 1.0* Very disappointed. Expected computerized, cartoon type babies. Not adults. App displays computerized cartoon kids, not adults. Boring! Wasted my money. My baby will not even watch this. She likes the animated babies. Sad, sad, sad. ### 1/5 — Want more baby *2012-05-31, version 1.0* This would be better if they used computerized babies like their other app. It's cuter and more child friendly than a "real adult" - that make it like all the other apps out there. ### 2/5 — Not many signs *2017-06-12, version 1.2.1* As an ECE professional, I need an app with words I don't know yet. I work with children and I use ASL to communicate with them. I know many signs for animals and to communicate with them, and I need an app that will expand the signs I know and can teach my kids. ### 2/5 — Good for adults. Not baby/child friendly *2012-07-28, version 1.0* Compared to the other app, Baby Sign, this app is a tad more helpful...for adults. It includes explanations but it could seem long winded since most people probably only need to "see" the sign. Hence, kids probably will get bored easily. My 1.5-y/o can watch the other app one sign after another, but this app, he just wants to exit out of it. This free version includes more words/signs than the other free version. ### 3/5 — Could be better, issues with text *2021-11-24, version 1.2.4* Great content, however, even in the favorites list none of the words show up so all I have to go off of is tiny pictures and a letter header so it’s a guessing game to pick a sign. Makes it frustrating, considering I paid for the full version. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Makes it easy to learn *2025-08-16, version 1.2.5* My daughter and I are teaching her baby sign and she’s catching on. I tried a few sign apps and they were confusing and harder. This one is really easy and shows how to sign clearly. I like that you can choose a category to watch ### 5/5 — Great and Full Version Worth It *2024-12-14, version 1.2.5* I have tried many apps like this to help my kids communicate more effectively when they are young. This app is the most comprehensive and easy to navigate. The videos are perfect in description and length. ### 5/5 — Engaging and Fun! *2021-06-27, version 1.2.4* I could help my 10 month old daughter articulate words. I could also learn words in baby language 😀 ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2020-08-01, version 1.2.3* I like the categories the words are in. Each one comes with a video. The words are said in context of use, so you can see how to naturally integrate the sign language in your day to day speech. ### 5/5 — Good! *2020-04-04, version 1.2.3* I like this app, good not only for teaching your children but also for beginners. ### 5/5 — Easy to learn *2020-01-26, version 1.2.3* I like how they explain, easy to learn. ### 5/5 — Great! *2019-10-14, version 1.2.2* My now two-year-old grandson and I have used it since he was 6-months-old. We review it each time I visit him from 1000 miles away. We love it. ### 5/5 — Good app *2019-03-08, version 1.2.2* Great for newbies ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2019-03-06, version 1.2.2* We have loved using this. It has really helped our autistic son to communicate with us. Can’t say enough good things about this app. ### 5/5 — Love and baby does too!! *2017-08-14, version 1.2.1* Great graphics love all the programs by this company have them all --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
