I think there are multiple ways to sign something and I think you just learned a deferent way than the app. You can always find a different app if you would like.

Just like with spoken languages, there are many accents and dialects in ASL! It’s kind of like how some say “pop” and others say “soda”. It’s not the wrong way, just a different way :)

There are multiple ways. Think about how in different parts of a country people say it differently. It is the same thing with ASL

I understand the frustration of seeing a different sign for something you've already learned. I've been looking up the signs on Signing Savvy when I want to confirm I remembered correctly. While it is frustrating, I know it will help me better understand different people. Not everyone will sign using the same versions I've been taught. It's helpful to see the different variations for the same word.
