Lingvano has a great setup and is clear it’s basically Duolingo for sign but I really like ASLdeafined for its large dictionary.

It has multiple people from different regions, so your region might sign something differently, but most regions' signs are understood. ... Not an app.

... I’m enjoying using Rocket Languages for the background info and Pocket Sign for quick access to a massive dictionary, but I’ll always check Lifeprint’s site, as well, when I’m unsure about something.

I like the SignSchool app - they do a sign of the day every day and then on Sunday quiz you. ... InterSign ASL is a pretty good app for the basics! It's completely free, and has lessons that function kind of like an ASL duolingo.

ASL Bloom was recommended to me by a speech therapist and a hearing person that is fluent in asl. My toddler doesn't speak, she refuses, but she can hear just fine. We're learning asl because she's picked it up rather quickly from speech therapy.

https://www.signlanguage101.com/ - has some free resources and was reasonably priced (in my opinion) to access the full courses ... Udemy has some awesome courses! ... Yes. Sorry, didn’t catch the typo. ... I just started out with the app Drops and it definitely gives me a Duolingo vibe!
