User Reviews

Users find the NZSL Dictionary app helpful and easy to use for learning sign language, appreciating the combination of videos and images. However, many report technical issues with videos not playing properly, short video length without repetition, and occasional app crashes when accessing favourites. Concerns about offensive language in the app and limited customization settings have also been raised. Overall, while the app supports sign language learning well, improvements on video functionality and content sensitivity are needed.
Pros
  • Helpful for learning and improving New Zealand Sign Language (NZSL).
  • Includes videos and pictures illustrating signs.
  • User-friendly and easy to look up words or phrases.
  • Useful for people with speech impairments, nonverbal children, and those new to sign language.
  • Recommended and appreciated by users for increasing vocabulary and communication skills.
Cons
  • Videos frequently fail to load or play, often showing a black screen or stopping unexpectedly.
  • Videos are very short and lack repetition, which hinders learning effectiveness.
  • App crashes when accessing the favourites/star button for some users.
  • Some offensive or outdated language is present that users find inappropriate and want removed.
  • Limited functionality such as lack of settings to reorganize or search effectively, and inability to disable distracting Maori language features.

That looks out dated pictures ain't good to show how the sign is supposed to feel and go. Needs to be done just btly a person.
