UmActually
Speak sharper. Score it.
Only for iPhone
$0.99
iPhone
Practice public speaking with on-device AI. Catch your filler words and get scored on how well you stay on topic. No accounts. No cloud. Just you and your iPhone.
You know the feeling. You're mid-sentence in a pitch, an interview, a podcast — and you hear yourself say it. Um. Uh. Like. You know.
UmActually turns fixing that into a game.
Tap record. Get a topic. Speak for 30, 60, or 90 seconds. The app listens, transcribes everything you said, and scores you on two things at once.
→ FILLER SCORE: How clean was your delivery? Every "um" costs you points. Every "you know" costs more. Run out and you lose.
→ RELEVANCE SCORE: Did you actually answer the question? Apple Intelligence reads your transcript and grades — out of 100 — how well you stayed on topic. With one honest sentence of feedback.
NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE
• Speech recognition runs locally with Whisper
• Topic generation and grading run on Apple's on-device language model
• No accounts. No analytics. No cloud uploads. No tracking.
WHO IT'S FOR
• Speakers prepping for talks, panels, or pitches
• Job interview rehearsal
• Podcasters and creators tightening up their delivery
• Toastmasters and debate prep
• Students preparing oral exams or presentations
• Anyone who's heard themselves say "like, basically, you know" too many times
KEY FEATURES
• Random topics on demand — tap shuffle for a new one
• Three difficulty levels — Casual, Standard, Strict — change the points budget
• 30s, 60s, or 90s sessions. Three minutes a day is plenty
• Custom filler list — add your own crutch words, set their severity
• Highlighted transcript shows exactly where each filler landed
• Beautiful, distraction-free typography in light and dark modes
• Optional Wyoming protocol support for users with self-hosted Whisper servers
ABOUT APPLE INTELLIGENCE
The AI-generated topics and relevance grading use Apple Intelligence on iPhone 15 Pro and newer. Without it, the app still works fully — topics come from a curated list and filler scoring is unchanged.
REQUIREMENTS
• iPhone running iOS 26 or later
• Microphone access
• Apple Intelligence (optional, recommended) for AI features
Most "speak better" apps tell you what to do. UmActually catches you doing it and turns the moment into a number you watch tick down. The feedback loop is immediate, gamified, and just embarrassing enough to be motivating.
You don't get fluent by reading about fluency. You get fluent by talking — and noticing when you're not.
Three minutes. One topic. Try it.
