I loved this app at first. But then it started to not respond and I couldn't open the app lessons anymore. I even contacted the app makers on their Facebook page. They responded back once with an "I dont know maybe uninstall it and reinstall." I sent another message right back explaining my concern and they never responded back to me. Very disappointing.

I would like for the other parts teaching ASL to be free. It's a language that should be available for everyone, not just the ones that can pay for the bundle packs or hearing impaired persons. I learned a little bit of ASL when I was a child and I've had to use it in my job a few times. I hope you'll consider unlocking the principal and important parts of the advanced bundles for everyone or at least create and set up challenges to unlock them. I imagine it's difficult, but it would benefit us all if an effort.

Seems glitchy. All the videos have to be downloaded, and there are hundreds or thousands. Most videos require you to pay real money to unlock. After downloading, I still can't get some of the bundles to play. FAQ links to a white screen. Some videos are just "remember to practice x" which is unnecessary (videos take up space).

Buggy app, poor customer service. Constantly have to hit the "Update" button on 7 or 8 videos, and one video doesn't load at all no matter how many times I hit "Update". Sent an email to Ink & Salt LLC on Jan. 19th but still haven't heard back.

Visible video controls please. I need to go back one measly letter in the alphabet, and the options seem to be either replay the video from the start, or tap/drag and guess how far to move the invisible slider (because of the lack of video progress bar, bookmarks, or preview images when scrolling).

I'm sure this will be great and I would gladly change this review if my issue gets resolved. However, currently I cannot download anything. It says an error has occured and to try again later. When I go back later, it shows it as having downloaded but won't let me click on it. When I try to access it via search it claims I haven't downloaded it, but provides no option to download.

I really enjoyed this app and I decided to purchase the package and unlock all of the categories. It was around $13. When I got a new phone all of my apps were transferred but for some reason I lost of the categories on my app... all of the other apps I paid for had been transferred no problem. I tried contacting the support for the app and the messaged me back saying it should work and told me to make sure it was the right account. I did this and sent them an email saying nothing was worki

It was a good app last year, but it has been abandoned and the videos don't download anymore. It is now nonfunctional. Edit: they fixed it. Good app again. However there's still a problem where an interrupted download can't be restarted. When this happens you have to delete and reinstall the app to download the module (which means downloading everything again).

Great app, easy to use. However the titles of the signs don't always line up. For example on the timing set, the day of week signs have been replaced with just good morning. Lots of that all over the place. Still good info, but completely unpredictable on finding a sign to review.

Any response from the app's developers? Seems quite a number of people who purchased the upgraded version of this app are unable to access the majority of the videos. Like someone else mentioned, only the Numbers lessons work, nothing else. Either get it working again or start issuing refunds. Paid way too much money just to have it out of commission with no fix in sight..

I love this app! Everything is very clear and easy to mimic. I have always had issues hearing, and I figured I would learn sign language to help me out on worse days, so this app is my start! I've even taught my coworkers some sign, because I work in a loud kitchen and I can't always communicate or hear them. I would LOVE if this app was available on a PC or laptop, so that it would be easier for me to study at home as well :)

I love the way videos are broken down into group categories, and the signs themselves are clear to see. My issue is that even after paying to unlock the full app, I cannot open half of the categories and am back down to basically only having half an app again.* If this glitch gets fixed, it would be a 5-star app. UPDATE: Uninstalled then reinstalled the app, all my purchased categories were still available. I had to re-download the video sections but they do work now, yay!

I've always wanted to learn sign for personal and practical reasons and this app makes it accessible and simple to learn a majority of what I need to know in my downtime compared to taking a class. The only issue I'm having is I can't select individual sections like I used to. I have to search a word/phrase to get to the section I want to. Other than that, it's a great app. Would change to 5 stars if this issue could be resolved.

I would give you 5 stars but I can't see all the categories, even though I paid to unlock them all. Some of my video categories when i click on them, open up as a different theme than the one I selected. I have like 4 categories that I can't even access, and were the main reason for me purchasing the app to begin with. This is very frustrating...please fix this issue!!!! Seems to be android, as my instructor can access them all on iphone.

I wanted to love the app but it glitches alot. I have to force stop and restart the app often. The problems started when I tried to save videos in my favorites folder (by clicking the heart in the lower left corner). When I go to the favorite tab to re watch those videos, things always freeze and glitch out. I REALLY dont want to go back through ALL those sign videos that I know, searching for the ones I need to study. Half the time I cant even remember what tab its under? Otherwise good signs!

For those saying some of the lessons don't work, I learned that uninstalling and reinstalling puts everything back in order! This is the best app out there. I only wish there was a pause button, and that some lessons were more broken into pieces. (Example, all the numbers being in long rows and having to watch all the way through a set to see one sign.)

exactly what i was looking for!! i enjoy that there is no sound because it gets you to focus more on the sign. there is a paywall for the rest of the app, however it is inexpensive and the full app is expansive in its lessons. definitely a must have resource. visually it is uninteresting, however, it is fully functional and minimalistic. very practical and very useful.

Felt like I was cheated on this. It started out good by consuming the free packages and I really liked the videos and content. I bought the expanded packages and now I can't download or open any of the packages. It says an error has occured. I've tried reinstalling, clearing cache, rebooting my phone, etc. It's no longer usable. So $10 down the drain. Contacted support but haven't heard back.

I'm missing videos. The free universal gestures section has to be updated every time I open the app or even switch out to another app. Some videos are NEVER available (sleep; thumbs up; thumbs down; tall, short, big, thin; type, text, write, pictures; write). It makes me nervous to pay to open the other lessons as well, especially if we're not getting all of the videos.

I am also struggling to get all the videos. The universal gestures will show the videos until I get to "sleep" and the rest after that give me "failed to load video". When I force close and reopen the app it asks me to Update the universal section but then does nothing. If I do hit that button and try to download another section of videos I get a "please make sure you are connected to the internet" message. The videos are very clear and easy to follow otherwise.
