As research techniques, the interview was used to collect the requirements, the observation to perform the analysis of the sign language teaching process in the classroom, as tools for development the Ionic framework was used that allows the construction of hybrid applications from the same source code allowing access to all peripherals of the device as if it were a native application, a non-relational database in MongoDB, PHP in web services and HTML5 for the frontend. As a framework Scrum allowed to adapt to changes in the implementation of the application, obtaining twenty-three (23) user stories, five (5) sprints in a development time of six hundred and eight hours (608). To assess the usability of the mobile application, the ISO 25010 standard was applied, which allowed measuring the usability of the application through six (6) sub-characteristics: intelligibility, learning, operability, protection against user errors, aesthetics and accessibility; Through the heuristic test, the mobile application was evaluated in a before and after corrections suggested by expert users, obtaining the improvement in each of these sub-characteristics.
