I’ve been using hand talk for a few days and I will continue using it but this app is great for learning the letters and breaking it down ### 4/5 — Great app *2021-11-11, version 1.1* I love this app. It teaches you the alphabet but I wish there was a bit more. I learned over quarantine and deleted but I’m downloading it again cause I forgot. ### 4/5 — I like it *2021-01-24, version 1.1* It’s pretty good on learning the alphabet. I wish they would do the same with words. Also maybe one without a timer. ### 4/5 — it’s a great app overall *2020-12-22, version 1.1* i wanted to try and learn sign language over quarantine, and this a really great app for beginners. it shows you the letters, and how to sign them, before giving you words to spell out which is a great way to learn. i also like how the words get harder and longer each level, because you really are learning more each round. the only problem i have with this app is when it gives you words with two letters in a row (example: bee, boo, free). it won’t let you type the second letter (so you can only type be, no, and fre) so you can’t finish that round and have to start over. it wasn’t a huge problem at first because it wasn’t giving me a lot of words with two letters in a row, but now that it is, it’s kind of frustrating. especially when i will be on a roll with some of the more difficult rounds and i have to start over completely. other than that, the app is really helpful for begginers. ### 4/5 — Great app but *2020-11-30, version 1.1* So I love this concept of making a game out of learning sign language! I have been looking for this type of thing for a while! My only thing I wish it incorporated more besides the alphabet! I wish you could pick categories to learn like basic gestures, greetings, food, family related topics, things of that sorts! ### 4/5 — Great *2020-10-26, version 1.1* Very cool, just wish it included more than finger spelling! ### 4/5 — Alright if you are just starting *2020-06-16, version 1.1* This app would be great if it had more that just the alphabet. It really could have been amazing. ### 4/5 — Really helpful *2020-02-02, version 1.1* I’m learning ASL in attempt to befriend a deaf kid at my school named Paul. He’s awesome and really fun. This is good practice for the alphabet. I hope in the future you guys can release different types of practice (like more of the basics) this is also good for teaching children ASL ### 4/5 — Great app *2020-01-16, version 1.1* This is a great app and very motivating for my students. I wish there was a way that schools could purchase the app with no ads and everything unlocked when purchased. We are not allowed to do in-app purchases in our district through our management system ### 5/5 — Perfect for refreshing & beginners!! *2019-04-25, version 1.1* I learned the alphabet in sign language when I was in high school, which was a very long time ago! Over the years I have forgotten quite a few of the letters. This is a great way to refresh & retain in my memory! I am so happy for this app! It is a fun & easy way to learn! I learn by repetition so the practice games are a great tool for me to use! And I like that I can pick my choice of game level to play, from easy to more difficult. My choice is easier right now! Best of all is the zoom & rotate function! This makes learning easier by seeing, in detail, the position of the hand & fingers! So much better than trying to figure out by just looking at a picture! Thanks for this awesome app! What a great way to bring awareness & share knowledge on how we can communicate better with one another! And the logo dog is so adorable! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2023-07-25, version 1.1* Literally only good for learning individual letters, it doesn't have letters spelling out words or anything like that ### 1/5 — Hi *2022-01-28, version 1.1* Hu ### 1/5 — Not good *2021-03-30, version 1.1* It will not load for me I keep trying all the time and I just downloaded it ### 1/5 — Do not use *2020-10-20, version 1.1* Only shows alphabet ### 1/5 — Loading *2020-10-12, version 1.1* I don’t usually write reviews but there is a serious loading issue, I have closed and opened this app even I downloaded it and it still was not loading. ### 2/5 — Noisy *2022-09-14, version 1.1* Makes sounds and has no way to turn them off. ### 2/5 — Not accurate *2020-03-11, version 1.1* Some of the signs where not correct ### 3/5 — Disappointed *2022-08-19, version 1.1* The app is made well, but i did not learn much. ### 3/5 — I like it *2021-04-11, version 1.1* I like the app it helped me quiet a bit. But I really wish they wouldn’t time the signs because it takes me a minute to figure it out and the time is short. I also wish they had more things to learn. Please update soon total bummer ### 3/5 — Good app, but... *2021-04-05, version 1.1* This app is great and a very good way to learn. But some ways are incorrect. For example k and p are in correct. The test at the end of going through the alphabet is also a very short amount of times. I myself has the alphabet memorized by heart, and I can’t even have the thought process of seeing the sign. If you fixed these things though this app would be a go-to app if you need/want to learn sign language. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app *2022-07-25, version 1.1* I was on a car ride and was bored so I downloaded this app and learned the whole alphabet in 30 minutes ### 5/5 — Best ASL App for Beginners *2022-04-26, version 1.1* I love this app!
