*************** About Privacy ***************
When you install Sign Learner, a message appears saying that the extension can “read and change all your data on the websites you visit.” - That's actually just the default permission required, specifically we need it to be able to identify the words on each webpage so that we can add in a sign to show you, and keep you learning. Sign learner does not track, use, or need any personal data from you :)

- (2023-09-11) Victoria Castro: It has being an awesome experience to have this extension on my computer. I get to learn one of two words per page on almost any website. And repeat words with mix new words , so you won't forget what you already learn and keep learning new ones. I love it and I highly recommend this extension. ♥
- (2023-07-05) Rebecca at work: I'm using this to supplement other BSL learning and I'm really enjoying it! Very useful indeed to introduce new signs and reinforce already learned ones.
- (2023-01-18) Aaron Jones: really enjoying this add-on, only fault is i'm not sure what the orange arrow that sometimes displays at the top right of the video is? any clues would be great
- (2022-11-16) Trevor Dunn: I love this extension! I'm already learning some signs as I work!
- (2022-10-29) Serena Nugent: So great! I've learned a bunch of new signs already and I love how it shows me signs more than once, I like to test myself and see if I remember them from the other times I've seen it. Really recommend for anyone trying to learn ASL!

- (2023-08-04, v:1.2) Harley Hamilton: ASL Dictionary
I am the creator of the ASL Dictionary on YouTube. I am glad to see it being used in this manner. A useful modification for deaf readers would be to have all words on the web page be hot. The signs are in the dictionary as we cover over 100,000 English words. I have contacts at Georgia Tech and Google who could help if you would like.

sometimes there is an orange arrow on the top right of the box, wondering what this is meant to denote? - (2022-11-17, v:1.1) Tony Betz: Microsoft Edge
Downloaded this extension using microsoft edge as it said it is compatible but nothing has popped up yet. - (2022-11-16, v:1.1) Trevor Dunn: Bug: can't close popup
I love this extension! I'm already learning some signs as I work! Found a bug: the popup showed when I hovered over the input field in Google Sheets (which is fine), but after pressing the right arrow key a few times to see variations (which also moved which cell I was on) I wasn't able to close the popup. Maybe add an X button somewhere so I can close it with a mouse?
