Basically unusable without "premium"
Response from developer
Thanks for this, it's genuinely useful feedback. Getting a real reply is awesome, and the other half must be Japanese people looking to make foreign friends too. To be fair, we moved away from language exchange and intentionally dropped those features, so that expectation is right. We have no ads and limit chat requests so people don't get bombarded, but we hear you that the free tier feels too tight, and we're looking at it.

What's this
Even though I only speak Japanese and a little English, so many people reach out to talk to me! Thanks to this, I’m able to have meaningful conversations with people from various countries about Japan and their own nations—it’s been a truly rewarding experience!
This is f〇〇king good app
Greatest app!

Nice language exchange app
Too strict on the SNS request ban
It’s an amazing app nonetheless, and to an extent I haven’t noticed scammers on here BUT it can be pretty dead for multiple weeks at a time.
Response from developer
Glad you met two people offline, that's exactly the point, and it's a miracle these days. Just to set it straight, the SNS thing is a warning, not an autoban, and it's what keeps the scam spam that floods other apps out of here. We're tuning it to be less aggressive. The free tier is fully usable on its own, Pro just adds extras, and if anything could make this a 5 star for you, we want to hear it.

Awesome app
Cool
Has potential but…
For a new platform, it would make sense to first build a strong user base and trust, instead of charging money so quickly and limiting basic interactions.
Being restricted to a very small number of translations, or risking an account ban for simply asking for other contact options, makes the experience frustrating rather than welcoming.
I don’t mind paying for good services, but asking for around €20 upfront, while heavily limiting normal communication, feels excessive.
In my opinion, the app would benefit a lot from being more open and flexible at the beginning. Otherwise, it’s hard to see how it will grow.

NO, don’t get.
Chats are paywalled
No longer free. Forcing to pay pro version
Response from developer
Starting conversations is not a Pro feature. Free users can send chat requests too, just fewer per day than Pro. Pro only increases your daily chat request limit. The free tier still lets you browse, and message people without paying.
Uniquement en sortant la CB
Response from developer
La version gratuite permet d'envoyer des demandes de chat et de répondre aux messages reçus. Le compte Pro offre simplement un nombre de demandes plus élevé. Pas besoin de carte bancaire pour découvrir et utiliser l'appli.
Buggy app and have to spend money to use
Response from developer
The tap bugs are fixed in the current build, so update the app and they should clear up. The app has a free tier: you get limited chat requests, and replying is unlimited. If you want more outgoing chats, Pro is the paid option, but uninstalling isn't your only choice.
