About Finger Spell ASL

Learn ASL finger spelling in a fun interactive way. Unlock challenge levels and gain achievements through Google Play (soon). The game mirrors the "4 pics one word" game play style (jumbled letters with blanks).


This app will adjust to your speed and help challenge you to increase your letter recognition rate. Every level you gain will increase the word length and every word you guess on the first try will increase your speed.


There are 7 different challenge levels you can unlock through leveling up. Challenge levels offer a different game play style to help you better learn ASL finger spelling.


The word lists are school/kid safe (no inappropriate words)


This app would be a great way to practice finger spelling.


I decided to make this app free so everyone could enjoy it and learn to communicate with the deaf. I am a teacher and I believe any student can benefit from this app (it will also give them the definition of words they don't know). It does include a small ad at the bottom simply because creating apps aren't free. If your school needs this app to be ad free please contact me and I'll see what I can do.


Please share this app and rate it below. I read every comment and will try to make this app the best I can. If this app is successful I'll consider making a similar one for BSL or any other sign language you request.

I learned alphabet from a translator. Several letters differed from my teacher. The B should have the the thumb across the palm. Pretty sure the D had the last 2 fingers against the palm. For F, teacher strongly emphasized pointer finger touches the thumb near the first bend, not at the tip. G appears to be tilted differently due to a bent wrist. Maybe these are regional variants or casual signs. I want to feel confident I am learning good form, just as if I was learning proper English in school, not slang.

Great for practice tool, BUT turn off the sounds yet the ads are OBNOXIOUSLY loud for no apparent reason. Yes, the sounds can be turned off within the ad, but only AFTER it's disturbed my sleeping husband. Searching for a kinder, app that 100% respects the user's request for "sounds off"

Q70%
by Q####:

First off, most of the signs are incorrect. Secondly, its not an app you should use to feel confident on fingerspelling.

One ad I saw was potentially pornographic. The app itself is totally 5 stars. It gets harder as you go on and slows down if your stars (how many times you had to watch a word signed) are showing that it's going too fast. Great app! I will definitely achieve my teacher's expectations with this. Please filter the ads more though.

D70%
by D####:

This is a great app to help practice receptive skills for fingerspelling. It doesn't feel like studying, it feels like a game. The way it's set up, it quickly figures out your skill level and adjusts the speed and word length accordingly.

T70%
by T####:

Would be better if photos of handshapes consistent same place/size. When watching signer fingerspell, hand remains still - nt left and right forward and back. Very hard to read esp at speed.

Whether I go to "play" or "learn", I cannot select any letters. I'm on an LG volt. I don't want to have to uninstall it since it seems to be what I'm looking for. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Be careful with the signs for the letters B, G, and K.

Best app for fingerspelling. It helps my ASL class

D70%

I learned ASL as a preteen and only used it to communicate with my one friend. We grow apart and I never used it after. Now in my mid fifties I am experiencing diminished hearing, and have found myself needing to use ASL. Starting I had no confidence using sign and downloaded this app. This app has boosted my confidence 100%. Well done, thanks.

by Z####:

I am increasing my recognition speed pretty quickly, at least on the app. I'm not sure how well it will translate in person with fluid motions. I would like to see the words in a continuous video of one person spelling the word, vs pictures of a hand in the letter shape flashed in sequence, at least in challenge mode.

Y70%
by Y####:

I know hand signs, but I need practice reading the fingerspelling. This app helps me practice at faster and faster rates, also increases the size of the words. :) There's a game!

I would have preferred videos instead of flash pictures.

I'd give this app 5 stars, but it has started giving me an error whenever I guess the 30 signs per second right.

Is pretty awesome

I love it except for the annoying ads. I just discovered the inexpensive ad free version. I'll download it now.

N70%
by N####:

I really got a lot of use out of this app until the last level. When I first started I enjoyed the increase in speed. Then all of a sudden it went faster than s lizard drinking. I was able to get some but I could not identify the letters. I think it was too fast for even people using the Rochester method, and I knew someone who used it. I was an interpreter at a local community college. I have been to a deaf camp meeting as well. I had the opportunity to interpret at a few science fiction convention and interpreted for a celebrity lunch who had just got his star on the walk of fame. unfortunately I have become a little rusty. I keep running into deaf people so maybe the Gods are trying to tell me something. I just wish the finger spelling was a little slow. When I was finger spelling she asked me to slow down. Receptive finger spelling has always been a problem with me and I would love to improve in that so I can go back to work.

U70%
by U####:

I've been using this app for about a week now as a study tool for a college level sign language class. My ASL letter recognition, formation, and overall speed have improved. The only improvement I would suggest is to include number formations. Both finger-spelling and numbers were covered during the first two weeks of the class I am taking. (The ads didn't distract me at all. )

Love it, wish it was a little more interactive/engaging. Letter "b" is also incorrect, please fix

Started my ASL class last week and wanted an app that would help me. This one is exactly what I was looking for. I agree that numbers would be good. It'll be interesting to see how I do at my next class.

T70%
by T####:

I was very pleasantly surprised at how fast I picked this up. I can't think of anything negative to speak of. I would say to those looking to learn ASL, start with this free app.
