This week’s post was suggested to me by Michael! During our semester reflection meeting, he asked if I had found any text-to-sign resources, which I had not! Until that point, I had not even thought about it! Michael sent me this app called “Hand Talk” which I downloaded from the App Store.

Screen recording of the Hand Talk App translating “Hi my name is Mya”

This app allows you to type in a word or sentence and it animates the sign for you. You can also move the character so you can see the sign from different angles and slow the animation down. I am curious to know how accurate the app is. From my knowledge, it looks pretty reliable but my foundation is limited. This resource would be super beneficial in a pinch.
