User Reviews

Spread the Sign Dictionary is valued for its extensive, multilingual sign dictionary and video-based learning, and is easy to use and classroom-friendly. However, its usefulness is hindered by frequent video playback failures, heavy paywalls, infrequent updates, and occasional errors, with some missing country-language content.

Pros

Extensive, multilingual sign dictionary with signs for many languages and countries.
Video demonstrations help learning and are a major advantage.
Easy-to-use, quick-reference interface suitable for learners and classroom use.
Positive endorsements from teachers and learners indicating broad usefulness.

Cons

Video playback issues: videos frequently fail to load or play across many entries.
In-app purchases gate most content and prompt repeatedly, hindering use.
Lack of timely updates and optimization for newer iOS versions.
Occasional errors and instability (search failures, content not visible).
Missing content for some languages/countries.

There’s some signs that are different from what I have learned and what other deaf people have learned. In my opinion it’s overall one of the better sign language apps out there, but I wish they would bring back the different speeds the person signing is performing. Also if there’s no video for a particular sign, the developer should either get rid of it or add it. Major plus is the different languages for signing. It’s a lot easier to explain to people who don’t understand there are different signs for different languages.

I’ve been working w spread the sign for about 8 months, building favorites, reviewing, really finding the app helpful and then today poof all my word lists that i have spent hours building and studying just disappeared! So much work down the drain and no support team to turn to. Seriously disappointed.
