What's New in Speakbound
1.1.0
September 24, 2026
This update is about making Speakbound feel as good as it works. • Subscribing is simpler: choose a plan, then confirm with one button. It responds straight away, and if anything goes wrong it says so plainly — including that nothing was charged. • "Try it with a sample" now takes you straight to a scored recitation, so you can hear Speakbound check your words within a minute. • When you add a talk, Speakbound asks when it is, so the countdown, readiness score and reminders work from day one. • You can see how many free scored recitations you have left, and a run where the microphone heard nothing no longer counts against you. • All five hiding modes are always visible now. • Clearer colours in dark mode, matching buttons, and missed words that no longer look like spelling mistakes. • The screen stays awake while you rehearse or recite. • Speakbound now runs full size on iPad, in portrait and landscape.

FAQ
How does Speakbound help me memorize speeches?
Speakbound allows you to paste your speech and then progressively hides words using various modes like first letter, random words, or fill-in-the-blank. It then listens to your recitation and scores you word-by-word, highlighting any missed words.
Can I use Speakbound without an internet connection?
Yes, Speakbound works offline. Your speech library, hiding modes, and the rehearsal timer do not require a signal, making it usable anywhere, including on a plane or backstage.
Does Speakbound record my voice or audio?
No, Speakbound does not record anything, and no audio ever reaches the developers. The app uses your phone's offline transcription capabilities to provide on-screen feedback.
What are the pricing options for Speakbound Pro?
Speakbound Pro offers unlimited scored recitations and texts. You can choose a monthly subscription for $4.99, an annual subscription for $19.99 with a 7-day free trial, or a one-time purchase for $39.99.
How do I cancel my Speakbound Pro subscription?
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription directly within your App Store account settings.
What is the learning methodology used by Speakbound?
Speakbound utilizes spaced repetition, a learning technique designed to improve long-term retention rather than short-term cramming. This ensures that what you learn stays learned.
Does Speakbound have ads?
No, Speakbound is completely ad-free. This applies to both the free starting plan and the premium Speakbound Pro subscription.
What devices is Speakbound compatible with?
Speakbound is designed for Apple devices and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod. It has an age rating of 4+.
