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!

HelloTalk features handpicked foreign language hosts who offer online video lessons, share language insights, and provide glimpses into their lives abroad.

For rapid improvement in spoken language, there's no substitute for direct communication with native speakers!

Ratings and Reviews
I’ve been using this app for a few years now.
I started off not being able to speak a word of Japanese but now I can confidently say I can live and work in Japan without any language problems. I even have the JLPT N1 Certification of Proficiency now and it’s all thanks to this app.
Having said that, I want to make it clear that just using this app isn’t going to magically make someone better at any given language. HelloTalk is a great tool for learning languages; nothing more and nothing less.
Privacy Violations and Unresponsive Support
I am deeply disappointed with HelloTalk's handling of privacy and its customer service. After a year of inactivity on the app, I logged in to find some features restricted due to a complaint about my identity. I reached out to HelloTalk's online support, expressing my concerns about their identity verification process and privacy implications. However, the customer service representative rudely insisted on a video recording of personal information, including age and gender, disregarding my valid privacy concerns. It is unacceptable for HelloTalk, which headquarter located in Shenzhen China, to demand such sensitive information without addressing user queries. This lack of respect for privacy and unprofessional customer service is a serious issue that needs immediate attention.
Developer Response ,
We understand how you feel, and we are going to take care of this for you right now. Please provide us with your HelloTalk ID or email to support@hellotalk.com so that we could proceed to research the issue your account has encountered. If the mistake is on our end, we would lift the restriction for you ASAP and get you back to practicing your favorite language.
A bit expensive.
You can use it for free. But not too much functionality can be used. If you buy VIP, you still have to pay the extra money for another learning material.
