I've been using this platform to learn Italian, and it has truly helped me improve my language skills. The lessons are well-structured, easy to follow, and very engaging. I really enjoy the variety of learning materials available. It's a great platform for anyone who wants to learn a new language in a fun and effective way. Highly recommended!
Great Support Experience!
I had an issue accessing my premium account, and the support team was quick to respond and very helpful. They guided me through the problem with clear communication and professionalism. Thanks to their assistance, everything was resolved smoothly.
Big thanks to the team — especially the person who handled my case so patiently and kindly. Keep up the great work!

I've been using Talkpal for a few weeks now and I'm seriously impressed. It feels like chatting with a real person, but without the pressure or fear of making mistakes. The AI responds naturally, and it's helped me build confidence speaking in another language—something I've always struggled with in traditional courses.
Highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve their speaking skills in a fun, stress-free way!

This app is amazing! I have a very busy schedule, and it was impossible for me to squeeze in Spanish lessons. This app saved me - I practiced whenever and wherever I wanted to! They have different modes for learning, but for me, the best one was the Roleplay mode. I managed to visibly improve my Spanish skills in a month or so... It also provides you with reviews of what you need to improve, and how to become better! Absolutely recommend Talkpal!
Talkpal really helps me learn languages. The lessons are simple and easy to follow, and the practice is fun. It’s a great app if you want to practice a little every day.
Their Chat tool is great for those who want to practice languages or pronunciation. Their only avatar is called Emma. It’s good to talk to her. Strangely enough, in the free version, she sounds a lot more human and genuine than in the Premium paid version, where she unfortunately becomes too inauthentic, over the top, and phoney.
They should definitely also have other characters users can speak with: of different genders, with different voices, personalities, intonation patterns, etc. As a man trying to improve my pronunciation, I miss having a masculine voice as a reference. Mirroring a voice similar to mine would definitely allow me to make more progress. It's also weird that Emma is unaware we're having an audio conversation. She acts as if we were exchanging written messages. She sometimes says untrue things like "I can't pronounce words", of “if I had a voice, it would sound like…”. Furthermore, Talkpal’s corrections are often completely off, focussing on punctuation and written communication, even though you’re talking! That’s a big drawback! In the Premium paid version, they do have a pronunciation tool, but it only offers you two general scores, one on overall accuracy and another one on overall fluency. That’s it. They neither allow you to play back what you just said nor offer you any specific feedback on the sounds you need to improve.
Overall, ok, but still needs a lot of improvement. The Premium version was not worth it for me.
I used TalkPal for two months before traveling to France. My goal was to duplicate the types of conversations I knew I would be having once I got there. I'm a beginner, so I also used Duolingo to gain a basic understanding of simple phrases. Then switched to TalkPal for practice. Chat worked well for this! It's like having a French speaker who adjusts their vocabulary to a beginner's level, then has whatever conversation you want. The instructor corrects your mistakes but continues on with the conversation. You can enter your part of the conversation by typing or by recording your voice. C'est perfect! Merci pour votre aide!
My experience with this app has been excellent. I learn a lot every day. You can choose any language, and it offers various exercises to help you talk about any topic. You don’t just have a conversation with the teacher, but also role-play games, discussions, debates, photo descriptions, and other advantages. Also, when I had an issue with my account, the app’s team resolved it quickly. I highly recommend it
Talkpal gefällt mir sehr gut, da hilfreich um Sätze und Vokabeln zu lernen die nach Themen geordnet sind, um mit einer „KI“ mit sympathischer Stimme zu selbst gewählten Themen zu sprechen und zu diskutieren (dies mit minimaler Reaktionszeit) und schliesslich, die kompetente und hilfreiche Menschen im Hintergrund hat welche für Notfälle erreichbar sind.
The company is really serious and trustworthy. Someoe downloaded the APP using my paypal without my authorization. They agreed to cancel the subscription and refunded the total amount. Some other companies would have not done so, stating it was not their fault. Instead at Talkpal they were very helpful to try to solve the problem for me and helped me with the refund. Really appreciated!
Die App unterstützt das Sprechen sehr gut.
Im Anfängermodus wird zu viel gefordert.
Man müsste mit einfacheren Sätzen und Dialogen anfangen.
Leider ist die Übersetzung vom Portugiesischen ins Deutsche nicht immer richtig.
Außerdem werden oft brasilianische Wörter verwendet, obwohl ich europäisches Portugiesisch gebucht habe.
An effective way to improve your skills at various languages !
I discovered this app to fix my "broken English" as a Frenchie.
A bit complicated at first (silly of me, never remembering to put the myc on !)...
Then a real pleasure to exchange with a "native English" (actually generated by IA).
Most of the mistakes are corrected in the daily email received afterward. It is very encouraging even if the rating may be superfluous.
When I had to contact the customer service for a connection issue, they were very responsive even though I was using the free version.
I am going to upgrade to the premium version with a 15-day free trial.
Looking forward to testing my speaking skills on my next trip to the UK !
I subscribed for 1 year, and the app run slower and slower. I used sentence mode to practice but the app sometime doesn't work after I record my reading and asked to read again and again. This makes me very annoyed. I send my complain to the CS, but it doesn't improve at all.
There is no way to cancel the subscription. Once you entered your card details, that's it they will charge you monthly, even if you cancel the memebership and delete your account.
This company has charged me for a years subscription and I have never heard of this company nor have ever accessed it. Watch out for spurious charges from this scammer!
I visited their website, and started filling in “an application”. But when I saw the feedback here, I immediately canceled everything. I had logged with my google account. I did NOT proceed with the subscription, but a few minutes later I got an e-mail saying that my trial subscription had started. 😡😡😡😡😡 I have sent them an e-mail asking them to cancel that right away. This is a complete absurd!
——————
Talkpal has answered to my e-mail saying that they could not find any active subscription in my name. There was no problem at all then.
TERRIBLE! I subscribed to learn Polish. A chat bot jabbered with me over dribble for ten minutes before I asked when I would start learning. Then it asked me what language I wanted to learn even though I had already been asked that multiple times. Finally, when Polish words came up, the bot flat out mispronounced them. Talking to the bot was like talking to a phone service rep for a cable company. Baloney dribble like thanking me for answering its questions and commenting on my answers as if I needed validated by a bot. The worst. DO NOT SUBSRIBE TO TALKPAL.
UPDATE 17.02.2025 : Since posting the below, customer service contacted me and restored my Premium access. The app is very good for me. customer service is a little slow.
15.02.2025 Went well at first - paid for the upgrade but after they took the money all Premium features stopped working. Have tried to contact the company and they have not responded. Have tried 3 or 4 times and there is no response.
I took the "free" trial and when I wanted to cancel the subscription the button didn't work, so I deleted my account and they made me pay anyway... I lost 60 euros...
Finally I've got refund after 2 days.
Funktioniert nicht richtig! Habe 12 Monatsmitgliedschaft Premium abgeschlossen mit 14 Tage testen. Kreditkartenanfrage alles durchgegangen.
Heute morgen steht ich bin kein Premium und sollte doch das Angebot annehmen.
Das ist eine Frechheit!
Da es auch Sprachbefehle nicht richtig erkennt, habe ich es letztendlich komplett gelöscht.
Selbst schuld wenn Talkpal kein Geld mit mir verdienen möchte
