ASL Dictionary for Negative User Reviews

✓ Not many signsI am a DHH long term substitute teacher for who is not fluent in ASL. I know, I know, but the district was desperate and I know enough to teach kiddos who are very young and don’t have much language since their parents don’t sign. Anyway, this app has been pretty much useless since about 90% of the time there isn’t the sign I need on here. Thank goodness for my aide who is hard of hearing and is fluent in ASL, but I feel bad always having to ask him. Also, I have an awesome paper dictionary but it takes longer to look up words and the drawings aren’t always easy to understand. If you added more signs, this would be an awesome app since the signers are very easy to understand..Neurotic AtheistVersion: 4.5

✓ Could be betterVideos are way to fast, and now I'm finding some won't even play ... Not very impressed considering I'm learning and spent so much money on apps.NadsincVersion: 1.4

✓ New Update for KoreaReason why I give 3 stars cause some of Sign Language is error and need to update new sign language. Like Korea that you sign language was insulting to their language. You need get updates for Korea their sign language for Korea. By the way I’m deaf!.Kittyreed82Version: 4.5

✓ Can I please get a refund?Can I please get a refund I’m not used to ASL and it got boring to me I want to give 5 stars but I have to give a 3 because I’m being honest about how I feel when you get a chance can I please get a refund?.Chunky g monkeyVersion: 4.2

✓ Not super helpfulAs many other people have said, these signs are either outdated or incorrect. My friend who speaks fluently in asl had no clue what I was saying..Fufu n ninthVersion: 4.2

✓ Some sign wrong!I look on your asl some wrong word! No perfect!.Benny!!!84Version: 4.5

✓ IncompleteIt doesn’t have words like car or pretzel. The signs are often different from what I learned in ASL class in college. I deleted this app. It’s easier to just google the word I want..AmhdjiVersion: 5.4

✓ DisappointedIt’s hard to see clearly what she’s doing with her hand in some signs, and it would be much better if she’s positioned to do it from different angles and closer. I wish I’d purchased one of the other apps:(.Preciousj1972Version: 4.8

✓ No basicsNo helpful basic phrases like “how are you?” “Nice to meet you.” No language signs. What a waste of $5 bucks. Not going to help me in my beginners ASL class..MiafleaVersion: 4.4

✓ Good list of words but that's it.Thought when it said cache videos, you could pick what video clips to save (making a playlist of sorts) but it's just any video you view gets saved. Also if you're offline, it still shows all words but will only let you watch previously watched/cached videos so if you dont remember what ones youve viewed you have to sift through all words.. Should have a favourites or playlist or even flash card option... Something along those lines. But is a large collection of words and videos are easy to follow..Taryns reviewVersion: 2.11

✓ Some of the signs used aren't correct for ASL.I just started taking ASL this semester, and was looking for something to supplement my learning outside of the classroom. I found this app and decided to try it out. As I was looking through it, I realized that some of the signs are incorrect for American Sign Language. For instance, in the numbers category, # 1-5 are signed with the hand facing outwards in the video. But in reality the hand signing is supposed to be facing towards the body. Maybe in other forms of Sign Language the numbers are formed this way, but in that case the app shouldn't have been called 'ASL dictionary'. I think in theory the idea behind the app is brilliant, but the creators should have double-checked the signs used. And maybe have signs in different categories for the regions they are used?.FAnberlinFilleVersion: 2.2

✓ Not for beginnersReally good expansive dictionary but the videos start and play too fast and you can't slow them or start them over. Maybe good for those already familiar with ASL for reminders but too fast for beginners..CoyotepoopVersion: 0
