Auslan Anywhere on the tablet is still under development. It is the Nintendo Ds game reformatted for touch tablets to make distribution of the learning resource easier. The application is split into three different apps to make it faster to download. The themes of each are School, My Home and Outside. The school zone is a little bit different as it does have a number of blackboards in order to teach signs that are not easily illustrated.

Each application has well over one hundred signs. With between 15 and 25 signs on each individual screen. The games is a hide and seek style game where the user has to find the objects to learn the signs to pass the quiz. When a quiz is passed the next are of signs to learn is unlocked. Several users can log in so that their individual progress can be tracked by the game.
