Pros and cons of ASL Translator app for iPhone and iPad

ASL Translator app good for

This is a great app for beginners!! You can type in what you want to learn to sign. The only thing I would like different is for the interpreters to either sign a bit slower or to have a button to increase and decrease the speeds. Other than that, its worth the couple bucks.
This is truly a great little app. Very responsive to simple phrase structure. I agree with the other reviewer though. Signs need to be slower a bit. Really great tool though. Two big thumbs up ;-)
Im happy!! Thank you for updating! This app improves well! There are many ASL dictionaries and idioms! I give you five stars!!!!

Some bad moments

This app is alright it will translate some words but others just spell them out.. Impressed and not impressed at the same time..
Too many fingerspelled words when there are signs for the words.
I bought this App and for nearly $5.00 youd expect it to be really good. What a disappointment!! The ASL phrases used are just a few and there are many letters of the alphabet left blank and without a phrase.
I have been waiting for an App like this for awhile now. I have a similar App, but it shows a lot of FS instead of the signs. By far this is the best Translator App to date. Thank you, hope that you keep this App updated.
Amazing! Thank you so much for coming up with this wonderful tool! My father is going deaf and it has become almost impossible for him to communicate with his family. I can just type in what I want to say and within seconds your video showing me how to sign it plays. Thank you again!!
Great translator! Good for phrases or words. Would like more common phrases, but you can search almost anything
