Why do you start with the alphabet. I think they should start with different basic signs instead of the alphabet because it can seem repetitive and not engaging. I hope you add a feature where you can look and flashcards or answer questions about the words, letters, or phrases you've learned so far.

also if you learn the alphabet first you can finger spell which can be used if you don't know a word. You technically learn everything at once. This is just my opinion

Because you can always depend on finger spelling during differences in vocabulary or signing level. I’ve come across a few CODA’s who utilize signs that were created within their family. Stay motivated to learn

learning the alphabet is one of the best things you can learn. there are many words that don't have a sign and you just spell the word out it abbreviate it so by learning the alphabet you learn tons of proper signs plus when communicating with a deaf person you will often have to spell the word you looking for and request they show you the sign for it

live stream sign feature

I’ve been learning ASL on this app for a long time now, and it’s been really helpful. But sometimes when I have the seldom chance to sign with real people, I get a little lost. I think it would be great if the app had a live video feature where learners can sign with actual people in real time. It would make learning more interactive, fun, and easier to understand especially for people like me who love ASL but don’t have anyone to practice signing with.

Free game

Can you guys please make a free game even like a endless quiz game. I really need a review because I lock in so hard and then I have trouble remembering all the words

Add a flag to report

I wish there was a flag to report typos or something that needs to be reviewed within each lesson. I just finished watching a video that signed that she liked chicken noodle soup, but there's a sign after "chicken" that looks like "sushi." I found it a weird soup, but it was an option, so I chose it. It was wrong. I also saw "don't" spelled as "do'nt" in another lesson. I feel bad that I can't flag things to help improve the app.

YouTube is a fun way to learn.

There are lots of videos on learning the basics, conversational ASL, sentence structure and more!
