Best app I have used for the deaf
It is perfect... true app is best for the deaf
Pain Points
Made up its own words. Rather annoying.
Gets a lot of words wrong even when clearly spoken.
I tried to cancel and it won’t let me! Do not download.
App is $5.99/wk for nothing more than a note pad... Canceling is difficult.
