I’m very happy about the opportunity to receive the feedback and summary and all the support from talk pal I really appreciate and enjoy working with these app with a GPT based AI learning platform best regards
The app has great potential and the support is top notch
The app has huge potential and can provide a lot of opportunities to improve language at any level.
I even had a problem with an incorrect subscription, but the support was very quick and helpful, offering me a free month trial before considering a new subscription.
It was very good but then suddenly it’s not working anymore and I needed its support to prepare an interview… I’m very upset. They say “no connection established” whatever it means
Anyone can write a CrowdTrust review. People who write reviews have ownership to edit or delete them at any time, and they'll be displayed as long as an account is active.
Do not sign up for free trial, I got charged before the free trial was up, I cancelled the first day of trial. I did email, to which the response was the amount has been refunded - but if I had not checked my statement I would not have know I had been charged. I shouldnt have been charged in the first place
The app itself is good, but I came across another app I prefer
Bankdaten für kostenlosen TEST? Nein Danke!
Falls es eine Möglichkeit gibt dies ohne Angaben von Daten zu tun, ist es sehr schlecht zu erkennen.
Wirkt auf mich wie eine ABO FALLE. Ist nur meine Meinung.
Nachtrag: Vielen Dank für Ihre Antwort. Sie haben recht ich habe die Basisversion gefunden. Für mich war es sehr unübersichtlich aber es gibt sie. Daher möchte ich Fair sein und weine Bewertung ändern.
It is very rare that I have an experience so immensely frustrating that I cancel a service within minutes and write a scathing review. That statement alone describes my experience with the Talkpal app. I started learning to read, speak and write Thai several months ago. Thai is still VERY new to me but so far I have learned the alphabet and have a limited vocabulary of about 60 words that I can read, speak and recognize when I hear/see them. I understand that developing listening and speaking skills is very important to becoming fluent in a foreign language, so I was very excited to try this app. Unfortunately, the “beginner” setting of this app was far too advanced for me. I can only imagine the frustration of someone completely unfamiliar with Thai. For example, imagine you just got off an airplane in a foreign country and someone starts speaking to you in their native language, with no translation, and you never get any idea what the heck they just said to you. Yep, the app is like that. Talkpal’s statements were too long. I honestly can’t say whether or not the statements were too complex for a newbie because I still have no idea what the chat said. I have enough frustration in my life and I do not need to add this ridiculousness to the mix. I initially paid for a year subscription but immediately cancelled it and deleted the app. I’m not even interested in completing the free trial offer. In my opinion this app is not ready for prime time.
talkpal does not start for beginners. you ought to have some skills in the language. E. g if you want to learn a language who uses other written alphabets talkpal is not explaining or learning it to you nor there is a possibility that you can write other alphabets.
Also the language is too difficult and as a beginner you got long sentences, and that means that these creators does not have any knowledge about education and learning. But if you have a good knowledge of it, it can be a good program but only for latin alphabets!
I bought this to use for learning Japanese. The software contains many errors. About 20% of the sentences are incorrect with many mispronunciations. Sometimes the English translations displayed are laughable - eg, 'there is a refrigerator in the refrigerator'. I have reported many bugs but always get fobbed off. If I got a sensible reply saying when to expect bug fixes, I'd feel more confident. The app has potential to be really helpful, but for the Japanese language at the moment, it is dire. I really hope someone can be bothered to start fixing all the problems.
UPDATED After 1st August 2024 bug fix.
Unfortunately, it didn't take long to find '先生はどこから来ましたか。' which is translated to English as 'Where are you from?', without mentioning 'teacher'.
UPDATED 9th August
More fixes, and the app seems correct the majority of the time. Still some errors, like pronouncing 辛い as the word that means bitter or tough, instead of pronouncing as the word that means spicy, when in the context of food. I hope they continue working on this app.
Amazing tool to practice and deepen languages whenever you want!
It’s mind blowing that this is AI-generated. I can practice several languages on a daily basis whenever I can/want. I had lost a big chunk of my knowledge over the years but I can feel that I’m already getting better again through talkpal. Learning also new facts about history etc. is a bonus 👌I definitely recommend to try it out.
Boring. I wouldn't replace a human teacher with AI
I was disappointed at the way the app works. I find it quite boring. The replies sound robotic, scripted and repetitive (I feel like it follows the same pattern again and again). It's much more inferior to interacting with a human being. In fact, I don't feel any genuine 'interaction' at all. I'd never see it as a good replacement for a human teacher. Learning a language is about learning to communicate with other human beings, not with robots. The reason why I give it a 2-star review is that they have a nice HUMAN customer support. But I wouldn't rate the app itself more than 1 star.
Pretty ok application. Just that after two days of use with montly subscription, it won't let me into premium modes, saying I have Basic plan. But I chose and paid for Premium, and in Google subscriptions it says, too, Premium. Support silent
I haven't used the app for very long and I love the idea but hope it gets better. I find myself getting frustrated with the responses because I will tell it something like what color and size I want a dress in and about a minute later it will ask my the same questions as though I didn't just answer them. And sometimes when I have asked questions to pretend I was talking to a real person, the feedback I would get is that it can't tell me about its family, life, etc because it is just AI. Obviously it is AI... it would just be nice to be able pretend it is a real person for the sake of practicing conversation, which I kind of thought was the point. So I think it has potential but it is falling short of what I would have liked.
Bella la prova. Ho fatto la sottoscrizione premium e non ha mai funzionato. Ho già contattato due volte il supporto clienti. Nessuna risposta. Se non rispondono entro lunedì disdico l'abbonamento.
Way to Contact for Troubleshooting ? Disappointing
I was doing quite well with sentence repetition on my PC but I changed to chat and accidentally refused access to my microphone by clicking. Now I can't find any way to put that right and the app is not useful any more. There doesn't seem to be a way to contact the admin.
I tried the basic version since I do not give credit card details if I don't know that I like the service.
The microphone access prompted by the website does not work, input via the somewhat approximative Mac dictation function is the only solution I can think of.
The website basically gives you some prompts, the "AI" picks up some keywords of your reply and gives you another (written) prompt.
Not sure I like it but I may return to it at some point.
Hasta ahora que lo estoy usando estoy muy contento y creo que agotaré el periodo de 14 días y seguiré usándolo. Te permite practicar lo que quieres, como quieres y cuando quieras sin tener que depender de los horarios de nadie y a un precio muy reducido. Las academias tienen un problema...
