**Tandem language exchange is the process of joining forces with someone who is a native speaker of the language you want to learn**
Languages are a 'learn by doing' kind of thing. This particular method is at the heart of Tandem, the global language exchange community. Connect with native speakers, start chatting and finally reach fluency in the language you’re learning!
Learn, connect, and share with 1-to-1 chats or try out Parties, the ultimate group learning audio space. There are millions of Tandem members with just as many interests, so find your people – and start speaking their language today!
Reach fluency in 300+ languages, including Spanish, English, Japanese, Korean, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and 12 different sign languages, including American Sign Language.
Why Tandem helps you to practice and learn languages:
BOOST YOUR VOCABULARY
For the times when you’re struggling to find the correct words, our in-app translation feature helps you compose a message or translate an incoming one.
PERFECT YOUR PRONUNCIATION
Fit in with the locals and improve your speaking skills using voice notes, audio and video calls.
GRASP THE GRAMMAR
Help each other grasp the difficult parts of language learning with our message correction and comment features.
TANDEM YOUR WAY
Forget strict schedules and learning by the book. Embrace your personal language learning style—whether that’s messaging, calling, or even meeting in person.

Wanted to thank you guys for creating such an amazing app! I recommend it to all my friends constantly 😆 even the free version is much better and has more features than HelloTalk. Plus they really care it won’t become a dating app. 🙈 thanks to this app I’ve found several great language exchange partners and one of them became my close friend - we even traveled together already and continue talking each day which is simply amazing ☺️ so I highly recommend this app!! Here’s everything you need for such app and it’s intuitively simple. Five ⭐️ of course!

I really love the app. I used to just find people and then go to other social networks because they were more handy. Now I really enjoy using Tandem to chat even with my long-term friends.But could you please add “edit my message” function. This is the only one that’s missing!
Great app & bussiness model

App works just as it should, but I am greatly surprised by how well made the microtransactions are handled, seeing as they aren’t forced on you at all and are there mostly to support the developers.

Hey, we’re really sorry for the inconvenience! We were experiencing some issues with the app, but we are now fully back up and running as usual. Thanks and best of luck with your language learning! Team Tandem :)
Thank you for downloading Tandem, a place to connect to native speakers worldwide and practice the language you are learning. Some cheeky bugs were trying to distract you, but we found them and, well, let's say, you don't need to worry about them anymore... :)
