Vocabulary, history and phrases
The Vocabulary tab lists every sign you have taught SignVox. History keeps the sentences you have spoken, so you can say them again or save them as quick phrases.
Manage your signs
Open the Vocabulary tab. With no signs yet, it reads No Signs Yet.
- Search: type in the search box to find a sign by name.
- Change what a sign says: tap the sign, type the new text in Speak "…" As, and save.
- Turn a sign off: use the switch next to it. Disabled signs are ignored in Signs mode, but are not deleted.
- Delete a sign: on the Teach tab, swipe the sign.
Share signs as a sign pack
A sign pack is a JSON file that holds your signs, so another phone running SignVox can use them.
On the Vocabulary tab, tap the share button at the top right (Export all signs).
Choose where to send the file, such as a messaging app or your files.
To add a pack someone shared with you, tap the import button (Import sign pack) and choose the file. SignVox confirms how many signs it imported.
Good to know
Signs are recorded from one person's way of signing. Signs from someone else's pack may be recognised less well for you. Record your own version if a shared sign is often missed.
History
Open Settings and select History. It lists every sentence you spoke in Translate or Conversation mode.
- Tap a sentence to speak it again.
- Tap the bookmark (Save as quick phrase) to add it to your quick phrases. SignVox confirms Saved as a quick phrase.
- Tap Clear and confirm Clear History? to delete every entry. Quick phrases are not affected.
Quick phrases
Quick phrases appear as buttons in Conversation mode. See Use Conversation mode to add and delete them.
