Lingvano - Learn Sign Language

I was hoping for a free version with ads such as Duolingo does, since this app’s format is essentially the same copied, but after the third lesson the app automatically becomes locked and you have to pay in order to keep learning. I’m kinda bummed out because I’d love to learn ASL and this app looked great, but I don’t have 20$ to spend on a language app. Hopefully in the future they will add a free + ADVs plan for us poor side of the learners

I was pretty skeptical at first but now I can say that this app its great

I love the bite-sized course sections. It is extremely easy to keep up with learning ASL when it can be done in short intervals at my own pace. In addition, the training quizzes and dictionary makes retaining skills easy and fun to do. Three things I especially like are the videos of real people signing (instead of cartoon characters or still photos), the inclusion of several different people signing (instead of just one reference person), and the dialog sections which provide good back-and-forth conversations. This ensures a real-life variety of signing that will make in-person situations easier to acclimate to. All of this uses regular, realistic conversations so the experience feels as real as is possible. Additionally, a website version of the app can also be accessed which makes home learning easy, and your learning progress syncs between the app and the website so you can pickup right where you left off on either device. For me, this app has been fun and extremely helpful. The subscription cost is perfectly reasonable, plus you get a chance to try it out for a while before you have to put any money into it.

I love this website, it has made learning basic sign very easy and lots of fun. The videos, and the actors that do the signing are very clear and concise. The lessons are enjoyable, and you want to learn more and more.

This app is amazing it helped me talk to my deaf friend

My great-nephew is almost 4 & having some delays with speech and learning how to say words- could be Autism/ ADD/ADHD, but we are not sure! I find it to easy to be able to copy the people in front of him without hesitation or thought- he just does it. We may have found a way for him to communicate effectively should he be slightly non- verbal- Thank You for creating this program.

I've been learning ASL on the Lingvano app and I've noticed a lack of encouragement and opportunities to practice signing myself. I think it would be incredibly beneficial to add a section where users can practice not only recognizing signs, but performing the signs themselves. This feature could include cycling flashcards of English sentences, or sentences in the language of your choice, based on the vocabulary we've learned so far. Users would have to translate and perform the signs, and then flip to see a video of the correct signing and the signs in written format. I believe this addition would significantly improve our learning experience and align with your mission statement.

I really like that with this app the language is being taught by actually deaf people it’s pretty cool to see

I love it! Always wanted to learn especially when my kids were late for their speech growing up. Thank you

Love app so far. Please add landscape view for the app. I’ve always used my iPad in landscape since portrait just seems weird for iPad. And now I got the new iPad which has the camera at top of iPad when in landscape. So it seems even weirder when apps force me to use portrait instead.
