You will never learn English from this App it is just waste of time . Don’t use this, especially if you wanna be smart ### 4/5 — Learning *2026-04-13* It’s good for learning and how to make friends ### 1/5 — Worst App Ever *2026-03-20, version 1.103.0* Bad Customer Care if it exist, All just Fake things in there . You will never learn English from this App it is just waste of time . ### 3/5 — Note *2026-01-17* Fondi application is not a good platform anymore. Many users are openly abusing others using bad words, and the environment feels unsafe and unhealthy. It looks more like a dating app rather than a virtual social world. The biggest issue is that the Fondi team is not taking strict action. Whenever we report abusive users, the only response we get is “please report,” but no real action is taken against those people. Because of this, the same users continue spreading negativity. If Fondi does not improve moderation, ban abusive users, and maintain proper community standards, it will lose genuine users very fast Stop giving access to the third-party app, the the ban user using third-party app and again he’s joining and saying abusive words ### 5/5 — 增加聆聽功能 *2025-12-04* 非常好的一款學習軟件，希望可以增加聆聽功能 ### 1/5 — Unhelpful support!!! *2025-10-14, version 1.98.0* Whenever I turn on my mic, others in the group hear their own echo. I explained this clearly, but the support team keeps repeating the same basic steps and asking for a screen recording, which doesn’t even show the problem. Really disappointing experience. ### 3/5 — Block problem *2025-07-30* This app is good for meeting with other people but you can’t block someone . Even though you block someone they still able to join with you ### 3/5 — Fondi *2025-06-02* When I use this app my phone is overheating ### 5/5 — Fondi is Fun and Helpful *2024-12-11* This is a fun application to use for improving English language skills. The meta verse interface along with six different games to play with other users creates a great environment for conversations. Try it. It is free to use, just a couple of advertisements, not too much. There is a premium option, which I bought and it gives a few additional features. I enjoy seeing the same people and it feels like a nice community of like minded learners, all practicing speaking English together. ### 5/5 — Great for beginners *2024-11-22* This is a very unique application and you must try it for yourself to believe it. ## Frequently asked questions about fondi ### What is fondi:Talk? fondi:Talk is an English conversation app that allows users to practice speaking and listening skills in a virtual world.
