Technology and Science have made Human life addictive to luxury but still there exists poor people who are trying to find innovative ways which make the communication process easier. Regarding to the World Health Organization, about 1 million people are dumb and 300 million are deaf in the world. Whereas; the communication is one of the most important issues for deaf and dumb people. This work aims to propose a smart application named "Jusoor" to improve the communication process and bridge the gap between the deaf, dumb People, and society. The proposed application provides the user with a dictionary that contains many vocabularies with videos explaining the way that the word is indicated, the most important sentences used in public places (markets, parks, restaurants, etc.), Emergency calls that enable recognizing the type assistance needed with the feature of locating the person which makes it easier to reach and provide the assistance, and service of communication with sign language experts. The proposed work was analyzed using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), Firebase, XML and Java programming languages.
