Perfect ASL Dictionary App, Just Needs a Playback Option
I love this app! It’s exactly what I was looking for. This isn’t an app that teaches you ASL step-by-step but rather a dictionary-style tool where you can look up specific words. Think of it as an ASL dictionary rather than a learning platform like Duolingo. The only reason I’m giving it four stars instead of five is because of the video speed. I wish there was a playback option to slow down the videos, similar to YouTube or TikTok. Other than that, this app is absolutely amazing!
Improved
Thank you for the update! I have used this app for years, but was frustrated because I couldn’t see all the video. It is so much better now. It has been very helpful in adding to my ASL vocabulary.
Great app to help you learn ASL
I down-loaded the app and started using it right away, but ran into some formatting problems and was having difficulty viewing signed examples that were presented, since the view of them was being blocked. I sent a message and Daniel responded quickly and the issue was resolved quickly.
Thanks for proving this useful tool.
A great resource!
I’ve been using this app for years as a hearing person who wants to incorporate as many real ASL signs into our homeschool learning as I can. It’s incredibly helpful and well-organized. Unfortunately, at some point recently the video player updated in an unhelpful way. Now, to play the video, you have to touch the app, and the “play” triangle sign covers the center of the video for a few seconds. Since the sign videos are only a few seconds long, this often covers up the signers hands for the whole video. In the past, the controls for the video were at the bottom of the screen so this didn’t happen. Can the developer/ designer adjust this?
Tips
Amazing app! So many words to look up and easy to use. I wish there was a button to make the video slow down. Also, it would be really cool if on every finger there was a different color of tape to make it easier. Also some of the videos are really hard to see what fingers they are using
Needs some fixing
Help ! The view of the hands signing is blocked by the play button .The app itself is a great resource but the play button is blocking the most important visual! I appreciate that it’s free but would love for it to contain simple combinations and other gestures that the deaf community uses when signing as well.
Almost good
The app is great. I use it to look up certain words but I make sure I practice the grammar. This is not an app to learn from but more to look up a few words. You need to know the ASL grammar in order to sign more than two words. The video play button covers the signs and I don’t know which sources are right but I’ve heard smart sign is not reliable but I don’t know how to tell if I’m learning a right sign. Other than that it is a great app to learn some words from. If you really want to go in-depth and pay look at @itsada_c on Instagram for recommendations on where to learn.

That’s bug fix. Please fix it something
Thanks!
Please move the icons!
Great app that I use all the time but the icons for play, back and forward is right on top of the video. Some signs are hard to see.
Lots of words signs covered by play icon.
This app has a lot of words to look up which is very helpful. I only gave it four stars because the “play, skip ahead and back” icons are right where the signs occur which make it hard to see the signs.
