1st question What materials are currently available (a list, PLEASE!) on the Gospel Library app in ASL for Iphone/Ipad? (I have not received a straight answer from special curriculum, lds.org feedback, etc.)

2nd question How does one find/download (on Iphone/Ipad) the ASL content? (step by step)

I do not have a device, but have a Deaf LDS friend who has an Ipad and maybe an Iphone who could benefit from that.

I saw that a person inquired about a Deaf Friendly Gospel Library last year that had nearly 44,000 views, but no replies.

I would recommend Book of Mormon, Articles of Faith, Missionary Discussions, Gospel Principles, True to the Faith, Children's Scriptures, Proclamations, Preach my Gospel, ASL music, Gospel Doctrine/Priesthood/RS, etc. Also, Gospel art.

ASL is the 3rd most common language in USA.

Would also like to see Book of Mormon app in ASL.

I only have an Android device, but I imagine the content is the same. What I see for ASL is:
  • General Conference: April 2013, October 2013, April 2014
  • Under Melchizedek Priesthood and Relief Society, there is a "4th Sunday" link to the April 2014 General Conference I mentioned above.
  • Under Media > Visual Resources, there are three videos: "God Gave Them Knowledge", "To Look Upon" (excerpt from the 2005 April talk "Pornography" by Elder Oaks), and "I Am a Son of God".
I know that's a fairly meager list, but that's what I can see at this point. There's much more than that available on LDS.org in ASL, but I guess it hasn't been formatted for the Gospel Library yet.

For Android Gospel Library, you simply choose the language "American Sign Language (ASL)" from the language selector (it's a globe icon). Then you'll see the content available in that language, just as you would do with any other language.
Questions that can benefit the larger community should be asked in a public forum, not a private message.
