Spread The Sign - Language Reviews

Couldn't even get one word without an in app purchase.

I paid for SpreadTheSign and all I get is an error when I search for anything. I would appreciate a refund.

The 'Get' version of SpreadTheSign has good content if you can figure out how to use it. To see any of it, you must do the following:

1. Choose a language such as "American English"

2. Type in a letter or a word. For example, type the letter a'
and you will see a list of all the words that start with 'a'.

I doubt sone people will figure this out easily since many other language apps show you an alphabet rather than making you type in a letter of the alphabet to see all the words for that letter.

Be aware that SpreadTheSign requires an Internet connection. You cannot download a dictionary to your device. That means there are a number of places on the planet where SpreadTheSign is not practical.

I would be willing to pay for more content if SpreadTheSign didn't freeze so easily and sometimes crash. Specifically, SpreadTheSign freezes and cannot be used once a sign language video has played more than one time. Be aware that there is no way to control the playing of a video such as pause and play. (iOS 9, iPhone 6)

I am skeptical that the developer will provide fixes because there has been no update to SpreadTheSign since 2014.

If the developer does make updates, I would like to see the user's primary language matched with the sign language the user is learning. For example, English text in the list with Romanian as the sign language.

The dictionary is extensive and the inclusion of phrases and idioms is so useful. Multiple languages is also a cool feature. However, too many videos do not play, and paying for SpreadTheSign did not improve its functionally or features one bit. What exactly did I pay for?

While SpreadTheSign is technically freely, the in-app purchase request is so constant that it is almost unusable if you don't actually make the purchase. Either make SpreadTheSign cost what you want people to pay or make it ACTUALLY free but don't do this nonsense.

I love the website it’s very helpful when I just can’t remember a word so I thought I’d download SpreadTheSign but unfortunately videos rarely ever work on SpreadTheSign . I recommend just sticking to the website.

I have the latest paid version of your app on my new iPad Pro. SpreadTheSign does not play the videos that contain phrases. Dictionary words are fine. Can you please help and support me with this problem.

by Funfunfunty

I thought for $4.99 it would give you more words but the words are still missing. Don’t waste your time purchasing this.

Stopped working once I purchased app

by Shady Dark

I love SpreadTheSign but i noticed some countries are missing like Afghanistan and other countries need to added in that app because i want to learn in AFSL (Afghan Sign Language) just suggested

Used to be perfect, but now most if the videos aren’t playing.

This is one of the best apps I've used in forever, only one problem... It needs to be fixed!

Whenever I try to go back from just seeing a sign, it freezes up and "lags" my phone. I have to double click and remove it from the background apps just to get it to work again. Also- in the "background," it says "Spread The Sign copy" why does it say "copy?" It does this on my old iPhone 5s and my new iPhone 6s. And no- I have not t stored my 6s from the backup of my 5s so it is not because of that. But like I said- great app!

I like this a lot but please add a button for bookmarks so people can save the words they search.

I LOVE SpreadTheSign! It's so helpful in learning basic sign. Some features are paid, but the free parts were enough for me to a long time. I'm interested in purchasing some of their other apps, but it recently started showing an error where the videos normally play for some of the entries. Like, a LOT of them. Looked to see if there was an update and I have the mode recent version ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

by MDMJW76

It’s been nearly a year since the last update. I’m about ready to give up on SpreadTheSign. Is there any plans to update it soon or has it been abandoned?

by MIKE1982001

Every Time i watch a video then stops but when it replays it lags so bad for few times then freezes it needs to be fixed asap i paid for the premium features and i ask it to be fixed ASAP

by Ttperson

SpreadTheSign is really useful in learning sign language and it has helped me a lot I recommend SpreadTheSign to anyone who wants to learn sign language and it has many different signs for many different countries so many people around the world can use it the only thing that I don't like is that you have to buy things in SpreadTheSign but the money goes to more videos for different countries which is awesome

by J3XX1CA

SpreadTheSign was recommended by my ASL teacher who is also deaf, I recommend SpreadTheSign too, as it has helped me with my ASL classes. The only thing bugging me right now is that a lot of videos are not visible even with the pro version. Please fix/update, we would all greatly appreciate it.

by ANaomio

I love want learn Americans language app. I can learn practice

by Bdspg

This has been one of my favorite apps for quick reference. Videos is so much easier than seeing it drawn out. Hasn’t worked for some time. Truly missed!!

by Mbrooks2711

It says it’s a free app but I can’t click on anything, see any information or even exit or of SpreadTheSign without it trying to force me to pay.
