### 4/5 — Very Detailed! Not Bad 👍🏽🤟🏽

*2018-03-07*

This app is really good for ASL in school. At the moment I need biology the most so it's useful that the biology pack is the free one. All together the full set only costs 4 dollars which isn't actually very much considering the huge amount of signs in this app. The video quality isn't the best, but the large range of really useful signs specific to what kids learn in school totally makes up for that. This is a really good under appreciated app.

### 1/5 — In Ap Purchase

*2017-09-20*

Stunned that EVERYTHING requires a purchase. You don't even get a chance to see the quality of a single video

### 2/5 — Need work

*2016-10-17*

Great idea, but the app will not load all the subjects and the word are very limited

### 1/5 — HeyYoutuberxoxoxoxoxoxox32

*2015-11-14, version 1.2*

You have to pay for all the different word individually

### 2/5 — App crashes!!!

*2015-08-21*

I have used the signs from needs outreach in the past when it was avaliable  online for free and it was a great help. I was excited to see there was an app. Disappointed that you have to pay for what was once free. But my complaint is the app crashes and closes and yet still shows to be running in the background. Please fix this!!! I am sure this will be a great tool if you can get it to work properly. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Amazing dictionary but....

*2015-06-05*

I used the online dictionary for years and purchased the app immediately when it became available - very unique resource! I've enjoyed the app on both my iPhone and iPad and like everyone else I am so frustrated with the iPad app crashing. I hope they get the bugs worked out soon as it's such a valuable professional tool for interpreters.

### 1/5 — Still crashing

*2015-05-30*

As an interpreter, I used this app often until it started crashing. Sad because it was great for technical vocabulary. It now works on my iPhone but crashes (even with the update) every time I try to open it on my iPad. Frustrating! Once fixed I would be happy to write a more positive review!

### 1/5 — Used to work

*2015-05-29*

I paid for the extra vocabulary lists, but the app now crashes every time I open it, even after the update from today. It's very frustrating because I would like to utilize this app!

### 2/5 — Potential but crashes too much

*2015-05-29, version 1.1*

When I first got to use it, I thought it was great but now it won't even open. Useless, when I need it most.

### 5/5 — AWESOME HELP!!

*2015-03-06*

I just started doing sign two nights ago and i have memorized 172 words already!👂💨
