As the digital world evolves and brings new innovations into our lives, the fact that these innovations simultaneously touch our daily lives shows the incredible power of the digital universe. In this way, good things can be presented to users and digital media can be used effectively and efficiently. The latest and best example of this is a new decision by Snapchat.

Snapchat is introducing a new Snapchat Lens that can help with learning the American Sign Language alphabet. With the new lens, users can write their names in sign language. Thanks to this lens, they can practice the sign language alphabet and even test their new skills in games.

The ASL alphabet filter was introduced in collaboration with Signal, which is used for sign language translation. In 2021, the feature appeared for the first time and continues to be developed to this day. The sign language filter was developed by Snapchat employees with hearing disabilities. You can use the lens by scanning the Snapcode on Android and iOS or searching for "ASL Alphabet" in Lens Explorer.

"We are constantly working to expand the ways Snapchat users can express themselves and connect through our camera. We believe AR can help improve the way we communicate in a world where language inequality is prevalent," the company said. Snapchat wants to help its users communicate better with each other, thanks to this feature it's doing with its deaf team members.

It is very welcome that social media makes such good and useful decisions by taking into account the needs and desires of its users. This decision made by Snapchat will be an example for all other social media platforms. We hope that it will become easier and more accessible for our fellow hearing impaired people to use social media platforms.
