About this app

Practice languages with native speakers on HelloTalk! We recently introduced HelloTalk Live and Voiceroom - interactive language and culture events to help you master languages through the content you love!

HelloTalk, the original language exchange app, connects you with native speakers to practice languages (English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, Mandarin Chinese, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Turkish, Hindi, Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese and 160+ more) for FREE!

HelloTalk equips you with learning tools such as translation and instant captions so you can learn by chatting with native speakers. Learn languages from locals around the world through livestreams and Voicerooms. Connect with expert hosts to discuss interesting topics with language partners in the learning community!

Why HelloTalk?

ā–ŗ Real language learning atmosphere
Whether you're focused on a widely spoken language or a less common one, HelloTalk caters to your needs. The system smartly matches you based on your native language and proficiency, while allowing you to filter ideal language partners according to various criteria such as age, location, and gender. Plus, with built-in translation and transliteration tools, you can communicate confidently without any language barriers.

ā–ŗ A powerful tool for sharpening your language skills
Acquiring new words through conversations with native speakers is more effective than rigid memorization. Whether you're a student preparing for exams like the CET, GRE, TOEFL, IELTS, planning to study abroad, or a professional seeking career advancement through language skills, HelloTalk offers native speakers who match your proficiency level for engaging interactions and valuable learning experiences.

ā–ŗ Immersive multi-person language chat rooms
If you choose to learn Spanish, for example, every Voiceroom you enter on HelloTalk gathers Spanish learners and Spanish native speakers from around the world to discuss interesting topics. Here, only your voice needs to be heard, creating a comfortable, introvert-friendly atmosphere. Here, sharing mutual interests allows everyone to freely express themselves and share personal experiences, fostering both language intuition and authentic expression skills. It's incredibly addictive!

ā–ŗ Diverse global Livestreams
HelloTalk features handpicked foreign language hosts who offer online video lessons, share language insights, and provide glimpses into their lives abroad. You can even join them on stage for one-on-one video conversations with fellow language learners. Whether you're grappling with pronunciation, speaking speed, or shyness, these hosts will assist you in refining your language skills and guiding the conversation. For rapid improvement in spoken language, there's no substitute for direct communication with native speakers!

The app lacks normal cloud synchronization. Chats are not transferred between devices. You cannot be on the same account from two devices. For some, this reason may seem insignificant. But if you have servers and money from paid subscription sales, and you can't make automatic cloud synchronization and the ability to log in from multiple devices without the other devices being kicked out of the account, then I won't use your service

Didn't complete my profile the night I downloaded this app. Was going to do it later when I had time and a better pic for it. But my account was locked when I was going to finish the profile about a day after downloading. This was Wednesday night. I didn't message anyone because the profile wasn't complete but apparently it didn't matter. Friday morning is when I found out it was restricted. Haven't heard from them after a day with an email to their support.

I'd give it a 5-star review, but it won't let me add videos. I wanted to post to my momment (a pretty view of the sunset that I took at the beach), but there was no option to post videos. If they could add that new feature, then I would rate it a 5 star app. I had met many new friends and everyone was extremely kind to me and the membership plan was also really cheap.... has the video tool been added yet?
