### 1/5 — Cant even use

*2022-06-13*

So, I downloaded a few apps, trying to learn sign language, when I came across this. See, I don’t look at the reviews unless I already downloaded it, so that is exactly what I did. That was the biggest mistake I have ever made. When I opened the app, I saw a blank card. I searched the meaning very clearly, with 5 words, and it didn’t find anything. Again, I searched another meaning, nothing. Now, I was getting annoyed, so just to make sure I input another 5 words and it found NOTHING. I looked at the reviews, and a few other ppl have the same problem. DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!
