### 2/5 — Great idea but

*2019-02-26, version 3.3.8*

The reason I left 2 stars is because I can’t do anything in it. I would really love to use the app to practice the languages I am learning but it doesn't even let me  create an account. Every time I type my description and pick the languages I know everything disappears. If I click on save it tells me that I need to have all my information in. But the app doesn’t let me. It keeps resetting.

### 3/5 — Okie Dokie

*2017-06-26, version 3.3.6*

Hi, for anyone looking for a language exchange app this is definitely a place where you can find people to talk to, I found a couple of good language partners and have already learned a lot. However, if you're set on speaking and talking and learning with on the language/languages you came for, know that your profile is visible to everyone and it's likely that people not even interested in what you're there to learn will message you. ALSO, for all minors + anyone who may get uncomfortable, even though this is not a dating app people will message and flirt with you, that's just how life works no one ever follows the rules on these apps haha, but why I'm concerned is please stay cautious of people much older than you trying to flirt, stay safe!

### 3/5 — Started off great but now there are some glitches.

*2017-06-05, version 3.3.5*

This app was great and can still be great. The translation feature stopped work a few weeks ago (Though to be honest it was not that great, Google is better and Google is only 85% accurate). Now before I type every message it says "Problem with the translation service. Try again later." My guess is that the developers want you to rate the app and added the "Problem with the translation service. Try again later" and stopped the free translations until I rated the app so LMK if anyone else experienced the same thing. I will update my rating if the problems go away after posting this review.

### 2/5 — Good concept but very poor functionality

*2017-03-19, version 3.3.3*

This app is very basic. The concept is great however, in that it lets you find people who are learning a language on a map. In the 5 months I've had it, it has been updated just once, and that was to include an option to send pictures. The interface pretty colourful and basic. The chat rooms are not monitored so there are spam and random conversations. I really like the idea of the map that shows where the users are but this app itself is not good. After three months since Iast used it, when I message a person, it says there is an error. This error doesn't happen for every chat conversation I have.

### 3/5 — Doesn't even show the correct flags

*2016-12-07, version 3.3*

Why on earth would it show a North Korean flag instead of a South Korean one. And for French, it's showing a Canadian flag?!?! Come on developers. You can do better than that!
And I don't appreciate the accuracy of the location system. This is just a stalker's nightmare waiting to happen.

### 4/5 — Rated it 4 stars because don't know much about it yet

*2016-12-04, version 3.3*

Pretty good.  Doesn't cost anything, no glitches yet.  The people are nice and you get active people.  I would highly recommend it!

### 3/5 — Good, needs work

*2016-05-26, version 3.2.2*

Okay I like this app but I deleted it and re-downloaded it as it was buggy and now I've lost all my chats. 
There's also no way of friending someone so that also contributed to the above problem.
I'm quite shocked right now so please give me my chats back.
This has good potential, don't waste it.

### 2/5 — Nothing happened

*2015-02-15, version 3.1*

I messaged about a dozen people online and I didn't receive a single response.

### 3/5 — Great concept

*2014-10-20, version 3.1*

The app really needs updated... It's buggy and lacks features that would intrigue people to want to come back .. However there is a great concept for others to teach other...

### 4/5 — Great App!

*2014-09-28, version 3.1*

It is easy to use, easy to find people to talk with, and all around a great addition to your (free!) online language learning collection. No 5th star simply because of the lag, but all in all a great app!

### 3/5 — Excellent potential few bugs to work out

*2014-08-23, version 3.1*

This app is an incredible resource for anyone learning languages. The ability to chat with native speakers of any language. Some features like the dictionary need a back button so as to return to the chat (at present you have to quit the app and reboot it to get back). There are also a few other bugs, chats get muddled.  The Japanese speaker I have been texting has had their profile mixed up with a Russian and I'm not sure who I'm currently sending my bad Japanese to. Once the app stability is improved then five stars!

### 3/5 — Good resource

*2014-07-16, version 3.1*

I always appreciate resources like this and LiveMocha which help to connect you with other language learners. The app is pretty laggy at this point and I hope it improves with future updates.

### 4/5 — Great practice app!

*2014-06-04, version 3.1*

This is a pretty cool app to practice the language you are currently learning. 
 The only bad thing is the app keeps crashing on my 5s :( can this be fixed please???

### 2/5 — Crash so much :/

*2014-04-03, version 3.0.4*

Fix that!!

### 1/5 — Glitches not Fixed

*2019-08-16, version 3.3.11*

I’ve had this same issue over and over again, and why do they not fix it? When I try to upload my profile picture from camera roll or photo albums, it doesn’t work. And I have no idea why they do not just fix it lol. Lazy much?

### 1/5 — Not social

*2017-04-09, version 3.3.5*

Only people looking to date. Not a busy social atmosphere. 
Low activity. Individuals aren't interested in learning.

### 1/5 — Great concept, terrible user interface.

*2017-03-15, version 3.3.3*

Sorry have to delete it

### 1/5 — Use a different app

*2016-10-05, version 3.2.5*

This app is difficult to use and it does not compare to it's competitors.

### 1/5 — Disgusting 👎

*2016-09-18, version 3.2.5*

Actually this is not for Good. No many language is here 😂

### 1/5 — Too many crashes

*2016-01-08, version 3.2.2*

Recently this app is crashing all of the time.  It is impossible to use to reply to a question and to search for locations on the map.  Too bad, because it used to be much more stable but as it is it is not worth using at all.

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2015-10-26, version 3.2.1*

This app is really poor. It has potential but it doesn't   Have a feature to allow people to find current  conversations. I spent over 30 mins looking through the forums and a lot of the latest texts were over 4 hours old. No one writes back. This could be fixed by sorting the conversations by how long ago the last addition was made. Until you make finding current conversations easy, this app is not functional.

### 1/5 — Still crashes all the time!

*2015-08-28, version 3.2.1*

This app has had two recent updates and yet it still crashes all the time on my iPhone 6

### 1/5 — When the ad pops up, don't hit the X

*2014-07-22, version 3.1*

It tried to purchase ad removal when I hit the x on the ad that popped up.  I just turned off my wifi quickly so it failed, but seriously?  Maybe this is a common thing with apps (I basically just have a few language learning apps and adobe suite) but it's still reason enough for me to uninstall if it tries to trick me into paying for things

### 1/5 — Won't go past the location question

*2013-08-18, version 3.0*

Please fix!!!

### 5/5 — KGEP

*2024-04-17, version 3.7.0*

Incredible

### 5/5 — ❤️

*2016-10-20, version 3.2.10*

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

### 5/5 — good

*2016-03-15, version 3.2.2*

met friends here

### 5/5 — Great App best for having conversations with native speakers

*2015-10-30, version 3.2.1*

I actually really like this app I understand that sometimes people are busy and I may take them a little time to get back to you but I've met a few people on this app from Madrid Mexico and Puerto Rico who I Skype with and I'm helping them with their English and they help me with Spanish so I think this is a great app to use when you're trying to learn another language. Should this be the only app you use no but this is one of the great apps in my collection

### 5/5 — The best

*2015-08-26, version 3.2*

One of the best ever to learn a language.

### 5/5 — Grat practice!

*2014-06-21, version 3.1*

Almost gave 4 stars, but the positives outweigh the negatives.

Love being able to communicate with people from around the world! Great for practice in grammar if you want it to be. It also has a translator you can use at any time.

You make your experience; if you actually use it to practice, you can get a lot out of it.

If you encounter a creeper, you can block people. That's always a plus. 

In my experience, people on here use this as a genuine attempt to learn, and better their language of choice.

I am excited for more people to hear about this app around the world! :)

### 5/5 — Amazingggg!! Increibleee!!! Ótimoooo!!!!

*2014-04-20, version 3.0.4*

OMG! This app is amazing for people looking to practice a language they're learning with people all over the world and with people near them as well. Very easy to use and well thought out! I was actually going to develop an app like this myself, but now I don't have to!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2014-02-10, version 3.0.4*
