## Frequently asked questions
### Is Little Hands free?

Yes. All 20 signs, the lessons, and quiz mode are completely free, with no account and no ads.

### Do I need to create an account?

No. There is nothing to sign up for. Your progress is stored only in your own browser.

### Does my camera video leave my phone?

No. Your camera feed is analyzed on your device and never sent anywhere. The page's security policy blocks all connections to outside servers, and there is no analytics or recording.

### Is this app for babies to use?

No. Little Hands is a learning tool for grown-ups: parents, grandparents, and caregivers. The camera checks the adult's hand shapes while they practice, so you learn each sign correctly before using it with your baby.

### What ages is baby sign language for?

Baby sign language is used with babies from about 6 to 9 months, when they begin imitating gestures, until speech takes over, usually between 18 months and 2 years. The app itself teaches the adults, and the baby learns by watching you sign.

### Is this real ASL?

The 20 signs are based on American Sign Language signs, simplified for teaching beginners. It is a home practice tool, not a substitute for learning from Deaf teachers and the Deaf community.

### Does it work offline?

Yes, after your first visit. The app saves itself to your phone and then runs fully offline, including the camera feedback.
