It says in the title that it offers AUSLAN, but it is not in the options when you go to sign up..
Advertised for Auslan (Australian Sign Language), and yet has no Auslan course. happy to update review once it delivers as advertised.
BUYER BEWARE! The app stopped working altogether this past week 4/28/26. Yesterday I was told there was an update to get rid of a bug so I uninstalled, reinstalled then tried using the app again and it's still not working. They refuse to give me a refund for my one year subscription.
no Auslan yet
It's NOT FREE!! You pay before you start the free trial and then have to cancel before your charged. A free trial should not need your CC info!!
been quite good, once you have completed the set lessons it's no use as just have to go over only a couple of lessons what's been learnt already. For the cost of it you'd expect better especially as you can purchase better online course for much less, for around a 1/3rd of its cost and it covers much more signs & better learning techniques. I enjoy the app but haven'renewed when the current annual subscription expires as not worth paying for something that doesn't support continuously learning.
this app sucks! it won't let me cancel subscription and they keep trying to charge my card! No matter How Many times I write them!
last update seemed to break the app
it was good until it said i had to buy to continue.. please tell the people that you have to buy it because im a minor and im broke, probs even going negative😢
the app doesn't have the functionality to skip chapters and in fact the first chapters are so basic it is insulting. I think maybe this is designed for infants? in fact the more helpful chapters are behind a pay wall. I think that is wrong. I am hard of hearing and in a hearing family. I dont think basic communication should be behind a paywall
Almost completely useless. I could learn better with social media (and proper studying for correct information) because this would not let me continue past chapter two without paying for the subscription or starting the free trial, which I could not figure out how to start. Is not friendly for people who want to learn and are incapable of paying.
Worst app ever i do not recommend this for anyone. It was horrible. The first day i came the three words were You,Are<Weird like what...horrible app
you have to pay to learn? nice stats no stats
only learned like 10 signs before it asked me to pay to continue learning
they could have said only first 2 chapters are free
Doesn't offer learning auslan (Australian Sign), only ASL (USA), BSL (UK), and ÖGS (Austrian sign)
Pretty good app but you can only get halfway to chapter 2 before you hit a paywall! So you have to pay to learn sign language using this app. And it definitely has flaws. Crazy how they're using sign language as a money grab
I liked this app until they mentioned the use of AI instant uninstall
it's great and all but you can only go to chapter two and then you have to pay to continue. kinda ruined wanting to learn.
I got through the first like 10 lessons and then it made me sign up for a free trial that makes me pay for the rest!first lessons were of the basics and were helpful.
I should at least me. free for people like 13 that don't work to pay
The app itself. Great learning tool but when you want to cancel before renewal because you get to busy to practice, you want to cancel easily. I went through 4 screens and thought I had but low and behold zip got charged because I had to also cancel through the play store as well. Do you want to cancel, yes . Are you sure, Yes . How about a free month, No thank you. So you are canceling , yes. Took me to Google play but I thought that was the end screen. I hate manipulative app tactics
