It's ok. The free version gives a few signs a day, which is great for a casual learner. It runs through a series of multiple choice and "type the answer" prompts. Each multiple choice had someone signing the sign plus a picture of what the sign is. It has gems and stuff you can buy with them but the app rewards them liberally and there is no reason to use them. One of the signers bounces their hands a lot giving the impression that it's part of the sign but it's not.

I like it, but it says "New lessons are released frequently"... and that is, very sadly, very untrue. My sons and I have done every lesson, and would like more! General improvements would be great, too, like more information, knowing what we're earning/how those things work, and not having the same two unused-word alternatives for every "signed sentences" lesson...

Love the app. It's got a few issues here and there with the descriptions being wrong, or the answer is incorrect. But the biggest issue I have, is that I paid for a full year and can't access it since my phone broke and had to get a new one. Same email logged in, same phone number, even moved the SIM card to this one, but alas I can't get to my membership.

This app is wonderful. I love that they have a dictionary available and I find the lessons informational and just just the right length. They're not so long that it's hard to retain the information but not so short that I find myself getting the feeling that things are moving too slowly and I'm learning nothing. I would absolutely buy it if they had shorter pay periods. I wish I could pay $5/mo. vs the $60 in one big chunk. I'm sad my trial period is running. I really liked it. :/

This app is easy to use, mostly. The lessons cost money, but they do have a free lesson that is refreshed every 24 hours so you see more signs. I believe it'd be nice if you could add words to your mastered list, because when practicing words that I know, that weren't on a lesson, I have to search up the word(s) to check if my signing is correct. If this can be added, or any other improvements, I will update my rating to 4/5 stars. If I get a monthly pass for other lessons, I'll review that too.

This app has a lot of potential. I think the developers should look towards other language learning apps for inspiration. My biggest suggestions would be to incorporate more full sentences into the lessons; have a pt. 1 for learning the terminology and a pt. 2 for forming sentences with them. I'd also recommend improving on the "flashcards" section. A way to practice learned terms is an excellent idea, but it could go more in depth (such as sentences) and be much more difficult. Great app so far

It has nice visuals to follow, but it limits you to one lesson per day and they're pretty short lessons with 5 or so new words each day. You don't get to pick your lesson, it randomly chooses one; so it sucks if it gives you a lesson you've already done twice before. It also has some descriptions paired with the wrong words so it makes it really confusing at times. You can review lessons you've already completed at anytime and you can search for words, but there's only one version of each word.

those saying you "have to pay" clearly didn't use the app for more than a few minutes, because you get a free course each day. you only pay if you want the lessons IMMEDIATELY. learning in a slow pace is a better for me. short bursts of words, with visuals and a variety of quizs really helps me understand a lot more than any other teacher or book has ! plus Im always able to go back and requiz myself on old words and look up words in the dictionary. not sure what the bombs and things are, though

If only the flashcards had a mixed option where you could practice several genres at once, & that you either had to choose between 3 answers or write it in, instead of "Do you know this sign?" W/ yes or no. It defeats the purpose of them. It's also annoying when you don't want/can't pay for a membership & you have to wait every 24 hours for 1 very short, less than 5 min lesson that is completely randomized in which case sometimes you have to guess at signs that you may not have learned yet.

I love that It is filled with several words that you can learn. I don't like that I only have a few opportunities to use or interpret these words in full sentences. There are some lessons where you CAN interpret a sentence but its not the best. Some of the words I have not learned yet, they don't teach sentence structure, and sometimes the app is actually wrong about what the interpreter is saying. I do love the large amount of information at the tip of my fingers but this app is not perfect.
