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.
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.
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.
Olen opiskellut putkee yli 200 päivää. Teen valtavasti virheitä, tosin tekoäly kuulee vastaukseni välillä väärin. Olen jopa hankkinut uuden mikrofonin tätä ongelmaa poistamaan, mutta asia ei ole juurikaan parantunut. - Mutta ehdotukseni, kun virheeni ovat tallessa tekoälyssä, voisiko esim 50 tunnin putken jälkeen tehdä toistuvista virheitä lyhyen enintään kaksi A4 sivun pituisen luettelon. Tämä auttaisi välttämään toistuvia virheitä. Kiitos!
Creo que la aplicación está para estudiantes que tienen nivel intermedio. Alguien que quiere aprender desde CERO no le sirve Talkpal. Yo me llevé un chasco cuando quise aprender Hebreo Moderno. Me considero estudiante PRINCIPIANTE 1 en esta lengua. ¿Podrán ustedes tomar en cuenta este punto?
I’m trying the free version, it seems quite good but 5 minutes is not much thinking time to answer the questions in a conversational way. I think this could be a useful tool for learning but a proper free try out of all the features, without having to input payment details, would be a good way to convince me to go premium. If its good, I’ll buy it! (Would you buy a car if they didn’t let you properly try it before you paid? Me neither!).
Due to the financial restriction placed on the app I wasn't able to use the majorrity of the tools on this app. Despite that, I want to highlight that the chat and sentence structuring tools are great. I believe it is important that mistakes are highlighted and though the chat and sentence structuring tool this app does just that. When using the chatbot, it easily picked up on what I was conveying despite my grammatical mistakes. In addition, the option to change the conversation topic ensures that the process is more effective. Through the use of the sentence structure, you are assessed on structure skills as well as pronunciation. This double insurance helps enable learners to be comfortable in real-life situations. However, I wish that there were more tools accessible without the trial.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Dialogues are fine, and the price is way cheaper
However, in comparison to Elsa Speak, the speech recognition is inaccurate. Talkpal system accepts a lot of errors in pronunciation and leads to false convenience of a learner
It marks words, not sound, and does not allow to train a specific sound
Its benefit, however, is the possibility to practice other languages, I am interested in French
There is no Elsa speak for French, unfortunately
Very faulty on the website, problems with mic. Doesn't work in Safari, iffy in Mozilla. Can't seem to go back a step in exercises so the entire module has to begin from the start. Doesn't have a lot of variety, what it has is quite good.

I find that some of the feedback I receive doesn’t always make sense. For example, tonight I got a comment like this: “We don't use a comma when we speak!” followed by: “The comma after ‘aujourd'hui’ is unnecessary here because ‘s'il vous plaît’ is directly linked to the preference statement and does not form a separate clause. Removing the comma improves the flow and grammatical correctness.”
I find this confusing!
Also, sometimes it corrects me on using de vs des, and honestly, I have no idea how to pronounce or distinguish between those!
