### 3/5 — Payant

*2026-07-21*

Je trouve que EF Hello est une application parfaite pour apprendre l’anglais c’est intéressant et captivant mais le seul problème c’est que si on paye pas ça peut devenir très compliqué apprendre car on attend des heures avant de refaire un autre cours malheureusement pour ceux qui n’ont pas les moyens je vous le déconseille.

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que EF Hello vous semble intéressant et captivant. EF Hello propose une période d'essai gratuite de 7 jours ainsi que des formules flexibles adaptées à différents budgets, et notre équipe à efhello@ef.com serait heureuse de vous aider à trouver l'option qui vous convient.

### 4/5 — 4 stars

*2026-06-09, version 9.1.2*

Helps me a long the way but can’t practice to long

### 5/5 — Best language learning app!

*2026-05-26, version 9.0.4*

After a year of using EF Hello, I’ve seen real improvement in my speaking confidence. The AI conversation practice and instant feedback make it much more interactive than typical language apps, and the short lessons are easy to stick with. I highly recommend it if your goal is to actually speak the language!

### 5/5 — Nice and easy

*2026-05-11, version 9.0.4*

Great app! It has helped me a lot to learn other languages

### 5/5 — Great app, well worth the money!

*2026-05-05, version 9.0.4*

This app doesn’t treat you like a child and you can get explanations directly relevant to the topic in question. Probably the best available at the moment.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-04-30, version 9.0.4*

I have used different apps for language learning, EF Hello has turned out to be by far the best one. I highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-04-22, version 9.0.3*

Truly helpful content and very easy to use!

### 4/5 — test

*2026-04-20, version 9.0.3*

I think is better that
the app test you to setup the starting point instead of yourself

### 5/5 — Aprendizado guiado pela Addi

*2026-03-29*

Addi a Ia da Ef Hello é uma joaninha muito útil e torna as lições bem dinâmicas. Dá pra conversar com ela como qualquer outro chatbot e pedir mais frases e diálogos no contexto. Os áudios das lições são bem completos e o conteúdo é vasto. Uma mistura de IA com conteúdos extensos do iniciante ao avançado!

### 4/5 — 레슨 플랜 중

*2026-03-26*

레슨 강좌 한 사이클이 좀 길어서 중간에 끊을 때가 있어요 한참 나중에 돌아와서 다시 수강하려고 하면 전내용들을 까먹어서 다시 듣고 싶은데 클릭이 안돼서 못 들어요. 전꺼 들으려면 아예 그 강좌를 등록 해제해야 돼요 수강이력이 없어지고 다시 처음부터 들어야되는 거죠.. 
그리고 ai 말이 너무 많아요. 칭찬 말고 빨리 넘어갔으면 좋겠어여

### 1/5 — Don’t ever try this useless app! Or u will soon get regret for it

*2025-10-13, version 8.5.5*

I did a free trial once and find the app pretty boring and didn’t make any purchases of the product. But unfortunately I forgot to cancel the subscription and was being charged approx usd 90 for a one year access fees. Have stoped the subscription right away after getting the billing from Apple and have made 2 report a problem to Apple trying to make a refund but they were being turned down for no reason by the app provider.  As a victim of this case, my advice is don’t ever try this app, it’s absolutely useless, garbage!
