Description
40% off sale only this week (ends 3/18/11). "I purchased or demoed all of the ASL software available for the iPhone and this is far and away the best. The interface, timing, and animation are the best available. The vocabulary is superior to other apps in this price range."

iSign is an ANIMATED phrase book of 800 American Sign Language (ASL) gestures. Each of the gestures is modeled with a 3D character and completely animated. The vantage point for each sign was chosen so that the user can see the details of the hand positions. These are the ASL signs, not finger spellings.

There is a lite version of this program, iSign Lite, which only contains 25 signs currently for sale on the app store.
I chose a diverse range of basic signs in areas such as; feelings, things around the house, numbers, colors, shapes, school, sports, etc.
Signs can be sorted alphabetically or categorically. There are favorites, a search function, and the much requested quiz mode.
A special thanks goes out to iSign user "Marnie" for taking the time and effort to categorize the signs and for all her input. Thank you!
If you have feedback, problems, or suggestions for this application, please contact me directly.

Difficult to understand
Many of these signs are nearly impossible to understand. And some of them are not ASL but signed English.
Good App But Needs More Words
I purchased this app over a year ago while taking an ASL class. I found it helpful mostly because I could practice with the quiz feature. I still use it from time to time to recall words. It's a good app.
I was hopeful that more words would be added by now though.
Good App
Handy way to keep up with signing anywhere. I can't carry a large book around and I like the quizzes and categories. Cool App.
