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.

► 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!

Please download HelloTalk you won’t regret it.

This app is so helpful and so fun, way beyond my expectations.
I’ve always been Avery curious learner, with so many questions all the time and it’s nice how I can ask them to REAL native speakers.
It’s also nice how you feel like you’re fulfilling your own duty by helping others in your native language, not just learning by others teaching you. A very win win relation.
It’s been two weeks since I downloaded, and I usually don’t write reviews like this since it’s kind of time consuming but I just had to .
Thank you HelloTalk.
But I think it would be nice tho if you can not show your time in your area, just for privacy reasons .
Also a new setting where you can not receive messages from new people who send only like the “hi” waving emoji to you.
Because there’s so many messages at once from those kind of people and for me it’s overwhelming.

Be Careful of this app.

This is a Chinese app and they abuse the refund policy of Apple which is 60 days. If you buy VIP membership at the beginning they will give you more views in the app but after that your account get no views or messages etc. If you contact Apple then they won’t refund because already after 60 days. I bought VIP lifetime and when I complained too much about it to them not giving what they advertise they banned my account and can’t get money back. Also this app is full of psychopaths and not serious learners. I used for 1 year and never met serious exchange partner. Worst purchase and customer experience in my life. Stay away.

Update : 2 weeks after they asked me to contact their team after developer response here and still no contact from them. Scammers stay away

出会い厨多めかも

私はまだこのアプリを始めて1週間も経ちませんが、この数日間使った私なりに少しレビューを書きます。

私は韓国の友達が欲しくて、韓国の友達をハロートークで作ったという友達から紹介されて始めました!

タイムラインに「韓国人の彼氏に憧れる」と軽い気持ちで投稿したらたったの2分くらいで四人くらいの韓国人男性からメッセージが来ました笑
びっくりしましたが、まぁとりあえず返信してみるかと思って返信してそこから話が弾んだ男性一人と会話を続けていました。
1時間くらいやり取りした頃にInstagramと LINEの交換しない?と言われて、交換しました

それでまた少しラインの方で会話してたら「私たち付き合わない?」と言われましたが、顔がわからなかったので顔の写真を見せてと頼んだらちゃんと送られてきました。
それでまた「私と付き合ってくれる?」と何回かしつこく聞かれました。めちゃくちゃ断りづらい雰囲気だったので、OKして付き合ったことになりましたが、やっぱり怖くて友達に相談したら「その人絶対出会い厨だし狙われてるからやめなよ」って言われて私自身もやっぱりそうだよなと思って相手が寝た頃にメッセージを残してインスタもラインもハロートークのアカウントもブロ解とブロックしました

韓国人男性も日本人女性と付き合いたいと思っている人が思ったより多いみたいで、プロフィールにも「日本の彼女が欲しい」と書いている人が何人もいました。

アイコンが自分の顔じゃない人、位置情報がオフになっている人、プロフィールに何も書いてない人は少し注意しておくといいと思います。😥
これからこのアプリを使う人が危険な目に会いませんように😣

文章がわかりずらかったり誤字脱字があったら申し訳ないです(^_^;)
