Reviews for ASL Bloom - Sign Language

Very very expensive subscription compared to other learning apps… while having less features. There’s pretty much no free version. I wish it were just a flat rate paid app because getting slapped with the sub plan popup first thing– a week trial with plans only between $30-$90, no less– made it feel kind of vampiric. […]

I’ve tried other apps although they are equally helpful this asl app is more in depth. they actually use the sign in sentences. but as you progress you are forced to purchase I understand that people need to get paid for their services but for this of us who have to budget and are losing […]

The app stopped tracking my progress on the last lesson section, froze on the same quiz over and over, and won’t show lessons that have already been completed. I like the information it has available, but the app itself doesn’t work so I’m frustrated that I’m paying for it. It quizzes you on information it […]

Easy, fun, & addicting. I’ve tried several ASL apps, this one is the best price and best design. No ads. The “streak” inspires me to open the app every day! & I like that there’s a slow down button so I can decipher sentences on the 1st attempt. Only thing I miss about a different […]

I know that mouthing words, and lip-reading is a huge part of sign, but at the same time I wish that the instructors didn’t mouth their words while signing. Occasionally I’ll find myself understanding by lip reading rather than by the signs, and don’t want to rely explicitly on that. Other than that, it’s a […]

I’d rate it five stars except premium costs a lot, like more than premium on other language apps, and you need it to unlock almost all the lessons on there. Also, in the word bank, a lot of words aren’t included, such as Duck, and Carrot. The word bank would be a nice way around […]

It’s definitely a journey to learn a new language, and I didn’t realize how in-depth it would be. Using the “speed” button to slow down the videos has helped A LOT. I try to remind myself I’m not just learning another language “in english”, I am learning an entirely new language. The flash card and […]

It was really good until you’re faced with a mandatory yearly subscription of $100. The price could be justified for a one-time payment for such a complete and interactive course, but not for every year afterward. The money might be an incentive to become fluent during that year, to avoid paying for another year after […]

Nice effort. So many people want to learn sign. But like any language app, it can only teach you one way of saying something when there are many ways to say the same or similar things. So get out and meet the natives! It’s the only way to learn! It’s a little English-y as well […]

This app is very well organized and easy to navigate. Even without the premium version, the app lets me learn the basics of what I need to communicate with others. I also enjoy the pre-recorded small videos showing me how to do the sign, rather than some generated picture of some hands with arrows trying […]

It is a fantastic app with a good learning process, honestly it’s kind of addictive. I learned a lot from it but unfortunately after the first three lessons (greetings and the alphabet) everything is payed. As a student who can’t spend on a monthly subscription I was disappointed as I was enjoying the app but […]

For the most part it’s a good app, it can definitely help Students to brush up on signs they already know. HOWEVER, during every lesson, the instructor mouthed the words that they were signing, which is a big no no in asl. To anybody who’s using this app to learn ASL, I definitely recommend it, […]

I like it! Personally, I think it repeats the same signs too many times but then again I grew up with ASL. I wish we could put in why we are using the app and what we know so we could customize what we want to practice/learn! Overall, it’s good though! I like that they […]

I think that my review falls in line with everyone else who finds the cost a bit high. The first three lessons are free, but then you are required to subscribe for either a 3 month or 1 year (auto renewing) subscription for just under $50 and $100, respectively. Personally, I can’t justify the cost […]

I just finished all daily lessons, ending with a complete 156 day streak! Love this app. I pay for the yearly subscription. I feel it’s worth it. The daily lessons take 5 mins or less, which makes it approachable and easy. Dare I say, ADHD-friendly. You can also choose to do more if you want; […]

I love this app and I find it really useful for learning ASL. I bought a year of the premium for a discounted price so I could keep learning and it’s been awesome. However there are some glitches in the programming that make the app feel incomplete or otherwise somewhat difficult to use. For example, […]

The lessons themselves are perfect, but once my free trial was over I only had access to the first 3 sign types. I can’t afford the full version, but wanted to learn sign language for any future students I may have who are deaf or hard of hearing. As a public school teacher, I obviously […]

I was excited to expand my signing vocabulary & conversation skills. I’m fluent, but not as fluent as I’d like to be. I was so excited to start. Nowhere on the app store or in the app does it tell you you ONLY get 3 modules free then can’t continue without a paid subscription until […]

I love how clear the videos are, and how each work is introduced in a way that makes it clear what it is, even if you haven’t seen it before. The lower rating is because the website made it seem like the free version had a bunch of lessons, and premium had more. The free […]

using the free side of it and it’s honestly been amazing. while it is annoying to have some limits on things, it’s a wonderful way to learn sign language. I’ve been able to learn a few signs very quickly, and hope that I can be understood in general conversations soon. love the app so far, […]
