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 150+ 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?

► 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.

► 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.

► 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!

I’ve been a fan of HelloTalk for a while, but the recent changes in the app’s UI and features have been quite disappointing. One of the biggest frustrations is that regional search, which was once available to all users, has now been made a VIP-only feature. This is a crucial tool for finding language partners in specific countries or regions, and locking it behind a paywall feels like a money-grabbing move. 😔

Good concept executed poorly. The new UI update is atrocious and notifications are broken. When receiving a video call, if you're not actively in the app, the call will not overlay over anything and you will miss the call (LINE does this better). Wish HelloTalk had servers to backup from instead of backing up manually from your mobile device and restoring at a later time. It'd also be amazing if I could use this app on PC, but even on Android emulators, it's broken and data is not persistent.

I've been using hellotalk for many years now and I've been a VIP for awhile as well but the new UI is so jarring and bad and honestly a step backward in the wrong direction. the new colors in chats are hideous, font is way too big, now it doesn't feel good using the app anymore. the old design was perfect and simple please revert it back. There was nothing wrong with the last UI so why change it? think about the expression "If it's not broke don't fix it".
