The situation of use centres around the issue of there being no encouragement for Australians to learn AUSLAN, as well as a lack of support and appropriate resources for those who are trying to learn it. The few resources that have been developed are usually done so without collaborating with the Deaf community, meaning they are often ineffective and get rejected.
The application is aimed to help those taking their first steps in learning AUSLAN through the use of gamified lessons while providing them with tools to help them in their learning journey, such as a dictionary, sign-to-text translator, and progress tracking.
