Our App today is called Hand Talk. This is a very specialized chat app for people that want to speak with those in the deaf community, and who don't speak ASL.
The app can do it for you. Just like other apps that translate into foreign languages, this app can translate what you want to say into American Sign Language. It will automatically translate through the use of a couple of cute AI-generated characters. You can choose from Hugo and Maya. Hugo looks like a cartoon version of John Oliver.
Even if you're not friends with a deaf person, you can use the app to help you learn ASL in a real unique way. Say what you want into the app, and watch Hugo or Maya translate it. You can control the speed that the translation comes out.
Hand Talk is a free app on iTunes and Android. There's an in-app purchase to get rid of the ads.
