About this app

Nau mai, haere mai | Welcome to Ako Tahi

A grassroots, whānau-led and community-driven Te Reo Māori app. Learn, listen, practice, and share 2,500+ phrases.

Ako Tahi means “Learn Together.” It’s a free Te Reo Māori learning app with 2,500+ commonly used phrases, designed to help you use Te Reo Māori in everyday life, at home, at mahi, and with whānau.

Ako Tahi supports learning through touch, vision, listening, speaking, and by challenging yourself and others.

Important note

Ako Tahi is not a translation app. You can’t type any word or sentence and receive a full translation. The app contains a curated library of predefined phrases, and search results only show what exists in the app.

Dialect and translations

Ako Tahi uses the Ngāpuhi dialect (Te Tai Tokerau / Northland). We acknowledge dialect differences across Aotearoa, and our translations into the Ngāpuhi dialect are best-effort. We are supported by whānau and fluent speakers who help review and improve phrases over time, to keep the content as accurate and consistent as possible.

We hope this app supports your Te Reo journey.
