I liked the exercises and how it picked up on my tone and speed however a little while into using the app. It kept saying that it had poor network connection and would stop recording me every few seconds, but I’m sitting right next to my Wi-Fi with plenty of connection. And no other apps ever have this problem with speaking features on my phone. It was pretty frustrating because I liked how it was helping me but I just couldn’t get the app to actually work with the voice record recording feature
First of, this is a good app trying to solve a complex problem. Kudos to the crew building this out. The app itself is engaging at first and the exercises are valuable. After a couple of weeks of using it every day I started getting annoyed at the bugginess. For example, as a paid member I am supposed to see the Orai Insights but I legit don’t see anything show up. I’ve emailed customer support and they’re looking into it, so now is a matter of waiting. There are other areas that are clunky, like the feedback piece after you finish every exercise. It lacks real insight into how the scoring is factored in and some of the graphs for energy are hard to read. If I had the chance to go back and not get a membership I probably would have and looked at other apps before hand.
I’ll start by saying this. When this app works, it is absolutely amazing. Quite possibly my favorite app I’ve ever downloaded. The analysis provided after you give a practice speech provides all the details you could want in order to improve your speaking ability. However, I would say that only about half of the practice speeches I make actually end up being analyzed. My service isn’t great where I live, so I mostly rely on wifi, and about half of the time when I click “Get Results,” the app says “Lost connection, please record again.” I am hoping they will fix this bug in the future, and I will gladly change my review to five stars when they do.
Thanks for being so accommodating while you face such issues in the app. Could you give it a try now? We've been spending a lot of time improving the stability of our app.
After the trial period, I decided to pay for the yearly subscription. I liked the app and the feedback it provided. However, when I started doing compelling communication course, the app did not work properly. For every assignment, I tried recording 4-5 times, but it still kept asking me to record again and kept giving the recording error. It has been really frustrating as I have not got any feedback from many of the assignments in the course due to the recording error. The developers should fix these errors or give a refund for the subscription.
Sorry for the bad experience! Do you mind sending us an email (support@orai.com) with a screenshot of the error you're getting? Also, could you try a different internet connection?
Thank you so much Danish, I heard about this app one of the ted talk speeches of Danish about how to overcome fear of public speaking. literally danish didn’t shout out his application name on their, instead he showed this app features at the ending of his speeches. somehow in the description of that video i got the app name. I understand this review isn’t meaning in this rating. but I’d like to thank you. Let’s up your voice 😇 and spread your melodious vocal with public haha :D
I cannot log in. When I request to reset my password, it states that links will be sent to my email, but I never received links (not in my inbox, spam, or trash folders). This has been going on for months. No way to contact customer support & it does not recognize my email on the web app. I genuinely like the app, and I hate that I had to write a review to get help.
