## Description

ASL Translator converts typed or pasted English into smooth American Sign Language video using a patented seamless-sign connectivity engine. The app has two core parts: a TEXT-TO-SIGN generator that recognizes 30,000+ words, models mouthings for lip readers, finger-spells unknown terms, and offers controls like pause, rewind, slow motion, looping and swipe navigation; and a downloadable library of 110 common ASL idioms and phrases recorded by experienced Deaf and certified interpreters. The Smart Translation Algorithm improves English-word-order sign output for clearer, faster video rendering.

Designed for accessibility and learning, ASL Translator can translate sentences quickly (real-time video generation) and accepts typed, voice-input, or pasted text. It’s a helpful communication and learning tool but not a replacement for a live interpreter. No audio is included. For support or questions contact appsavers@gmail.com.
