It was okay until it started asking me for payment just after one chat

Don’t download if you don’t want to give money

Really it ask Money first the first level they will give you freely but the second level will cost you money so I am not download in this ever again because it is asking for Money dude why should I give money for learning so if you want to download this app make sure you have money to give them if you don’t want to give money to them then just don’t download this app because they ask Money.

Hi Hazel, thanks for trying Hanashi! We’d love to run on enthusiasm alone, but unfortunately our bills haven’t agreed to that yet 🙂 We try to keep speaking practice much more affordable than traditional methods or a tutor. Thanks again for your feedback!

Annoying

I recently downloaded this app and took 1 Spanish lesson. The next day i went on and tried to continue my daily streak, but it tried to make me pay after one session! Can there be an app where you don't have to pay?!

J’adore mais payant

J’ai adoré l’appli est superbe mais seule problème j’ai quitter l’appli et quand je suis revenue je devais payer pour continuer cela est dommage

Response from developer

Bonjour ! Ça nous fait très plaisir que vous ayez adoré Hanashi. Nous sommes une petite équipe, et les abonnements nous permettent de proposer de la pratique orale avec des retours personnalisés. Nous essayons de garder nos tarifs bien plus accessibles que des cours particuliers, pour vous permettre de pratiquer régulièrement. Merci d’avoir essayé Hanashi !

Super appli je recommande

Response from developer

Merci beaucoup pour la recommandation ! Ça nous fait très plaisir que Hanashi vous plaise. Bonne continuation dans votre apprentissage !

Good for simple practice

This app is great for simple practice conversations and is overall pretty convenient. I’m giving four stars because it seems like no matter how well or poorly you do, it gives you good grades in all of the sections at the end of the conversation. It’s unclear what the grading criteria is… But the practice is good.

melhor app para estudar idiomas

Melhor app

Response from developer

Muito obrigado! Ficamos muito felizes em saber disso. Esperamos continuar ajudando você na sua jornada de aprendizado. 😊

Olá,bem…se tivesse como aprender gratuitamente seria maravilhoso tirando o início onde a gente se apresenta o resto é tudo pago,se fosse de graça e um mais avançado pago seria mais fácil por que nem todo mundo tem 59,99 por mês e muito menos trezentos e poucos para ficar pagando todo ano em um aplicativo já que se a pessoa tive estaria procurando um profissional físico não um app para celulares

에러가 잘납니다.

공부를 하려고 깔아서 하는데, 에러가 나는건지 하는 도중에 계속 멈추네요.

Response from developer

안녕하세요. 불편을 드려 죄송합니다. 앱 내 설정의 지원 메뉴를 통해 문의하시거나 support@hanashiapp.com 으로 이메일 보내주시면 바로 확인해서 문제를 해결해드리겠습니다. 감사합니다!

Excelente

Ya hablo perfectamente otro idioma

Response from developer

¡Muchas gracias! Nos alegra mucho saber que Hanashi te está ayudando a hablar otro idioma con confianza

Developer response excellent

I haven’t used the app enough to rate it, but I did find a problem early on and the developer jumped right on it and got it fixed. A great sign!

Response from developer

Hi! Thanks for flagging this, I appreciate you taking the time to let us know. Could you send us a message at support@hanashiapp.com? I’d love to track it down and get it fixed so the next learner doesn’t hit the same issue. Thank you so much for being a Hanashi user 🫶

Japanese

It helped me to talk Japanese

Great app

First of all, it really effective to study Korean

Toon forever to connect

I see a lot of comments talking about paywalls I get that OpenAI api isn’t free. But I never even got to try it out because it was stuck on “connecting” after a few minutes with no change I uninstalled

Response from developer

Hey, really sorry you hit this. We had a brief outage but it’s fully fixed, and we’ve since shipped infrastructure upgrades that have made the connection experience noticeably better. We’d genuinely love a second chance to show you the app at its best. Feel free to reach us directly at support@hanashiapp.com if you give it another go.

You have to pay to do most things

To do 99 percent of things on this app you have to pay 14.99 a month, which is insane. You basically can’t use it without paying. It’s a good app if you pay the money but for basically 15 dollars it’s not that good honestly

Response from developer

Hi Milo, thanks for the honest feedback. We hear you. Hanashi is built to give you actual speaking practice — real back-and-forth conversations where you talk out loud and get corrected, in 11+ languages. That’s genuinely expensive for us to run on our end, which is why the full experience is behind a subscription. That said, we offer a free trial so you can try everything before paying a cent, and we’re always working to make sure the value is there for people who do subscribe. If there’s something specific you felt should’ve been free, we’d love to hear it — it genuinely helps shape what we build next. Wishing you the best with your studies!

Feedback

A little thing. My first Japanese lesson ended with a suggestion for improved word ordering. But the rule it gave and the example it showed were opposite from each other. It’s not a great look for the first lesson.

App bom, porém com muitos bugs, demora demais pra iniciar uma lição, as vezes nem inicia, fica carregando a lição e não inicia. Mesmo sem você fazer a lição conta como se tivesse feito. Precisam melhorar muito.
