This doesn't interpret signs it just gives you a manual alphabet translation. Very misleading. people need actual signs you can't sit and signed the whole alphabet in a conversation. I know I've cake in ASL classes don't waste your time on this app

I installed this just so I could comment. If you are going to type out what you want to say to a deaf person, why not just let them read what you typed? Or write it down. Deaf people can read, ya know...

This app is ridiculous. Like someone else already commented, why not just let them read what you are saying. This is like two hearing people communicating by saying the letters of each word instead of the actual word.

American Sign Language and finger spelling are not one and the same. Finger spelling in ASL is mostly for proper names and places. This app only trandlates what you are saying into finger spelling right now which is useless a a translation device as the Deaf can read English. This is a great concept IF developed further to include actual ASL words.

As a nationally certified sign language interpreter, I can assure you this will be of absolutely no help in communicating with a Deaf person. American Sign Language is a complete language with its own unique structure and syntax. Simply transcribing English letters into the manual alphabet is far from what a real interpreter does. This is like considering Yahoo! Answers to be as valid as a peer-reviewed journal article.

The only use for this app is if you have someone else type in the word, turn off the voiced letter, and you covered the answer with your hand. To be useful, the app would need to present spelled words to you separately from entering them or speaking them to you
