Excellent! The new version is AMAZING!
We love the new and improved app. It is great and has really made the parent-prep SO EASY. We are having so much fun learning Spanish!
Wonderful and fun!
My kids love using this app for their foreign language practice. It’s been a great experience so far. We are using the ASL, Japanese, and Russian languages.
Audio Speed is so Frustrating
They force you to listen to the audio before you can ever say that you practiced or move onto the next step of the program. And in Mandarin Chinese, the audio is literally .001 of normal language speakers. It takes 15 seconds just to listen to someone say “let’s wash our hands” because they’re saying one word every two seconds I can’t even express how frustrating and annoying that is as someone who knows the language already to have to listen to someone say it’s so slowly before you’re allowed to say that you practiced it and move onto the next step. I need them to have separate buttons that say listen to it at normal speed and then listen to it at slow speed, OR they shouldn’t require you to listen to the audio in order to move onto the next step and say you practiced. Especially if the point of the program is to help you gain confidence and fluency… why are they making you every time you practice listen to it at 1/10 of the normal speed. What if you’ve actually practice and you’re really good at it and you only wanna listen to it at normal speed or you don’t audio anymore? What if you happen to already be a native speaker? Then you’re just up for a lifetime of frustration using this app.

App update
I wish that I could switch back to how the app was before. I don't like that the updated version forces me to do the exact structure--I wish that it gave me more flexibility. I don't need it to require me to listen to the native speaker audio a certain number of times, etc.
New app update
This updated app is amazing. It guides you through your sessions and reviews! So glad that the app now follows the program. We live in the country of the language we are learning and this program has really helped me to understand locals and be able to talk.
New amazing app
This program was already great, but now the app is awesome too! I love that it’s so user friendly and will keep my family marching along ! ¡Bien Hecho!
Reviewing just the app
The program itself is fantastic! Reviewing the app, it’s so painfully slow and glitchy. So so slow. Really needs a big update to stay on par with every other app. Support is quick to reply but issues have persisted.
Program is great, app is hit or miss. Still worth it!
I love the program and the concept, it’s been awesome! The app has been buggy. But it works enough of the time to use and enjoy.
Doesn’t work since new update
I can’t open the app at all since the update. It says critical error.
Terrible App
The app is not working well. It opens for 2 seconds then crashes. Or it won’t load any phrases.
Bonjour 👨🎨🥖🇫🇷
Love this app totally recommend for learning any languages
Bonjour
I am a Frenchaholic so thank you TalkBox.Mom I can now converse happily in French I LOVE YOU
Great concept, app needs updating
I love the talk box mom concept and book so much!! I also love the app when it works, it seems buggy and some things don’t load sometimes. Please update your app!
Good program, awful app
This app is by far the most frustrating app I have ever used. Any other app that was this buggy I would have quit using by now. But the program itself is good and so the app stays. It plays the wrong phrases when you tap. It doesn’t play some phrases at all. It continues to the next phrase when autoplay is turned off. It doesn’t pause when you press pause. It has way too many different menus to navigate to get to what you want, and it’s remarkably slow in loading them. Marking a box as completed takes way too much redundant tapping and still doesn’t properly work half the time. On a daily basis, often multiple times a day, I have to kill and restart the app because it has frozen or glitched enough to be unusable. If there were any similar language programs available, I’d use them for a better app. But there aren’t similar programs and this program is very good, so I tolerate the awful app.

Flat out AWESOME!!!
Ok I’ll start right from the top this app is amazing for learning any language. It’ll give you pre-recorded phrases to practice the pronunciation of the specific words you want to learn. It’ll give even has books you can use on the app or just order a copy online!!!! I would definitely recommend this app is you have an interest in learning more about a few phrases just so you can visit a foreign country and he able to strike up a conversation. It’s really very easy to practice these phrases and stuff. Give it a go!! You’ll be an expert in no time!!!

Flat out AWESOME!!!
Ok, I’m a French-a-holic I love all things French the food the scenery the language the culture, just about EVERYTHING!!! And I really wanted to take a French class but being homeschooled is where I have too many classes anyway! So when my mom was like “hey is this app something you want?” I was all “🫢😱🤩🥳😛😍🙂🥲🥹😁😊☺️😘😇😌!!!!!!!!!”
Literally Talkbox is the #1 language practice app that I would recommend. It has daily updates and routines, not to mention it has pronunciation so that you don’t have to just figure it out yourself! (I had an app like that once and it sucked) I can literally say SOOOO many more French phrases and saying now thanks to the Talkbox app! Thank uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… I love it so much and I don’t know what I would do without it! ✌️ (btw anyone who is a swiftie is an immediate friend of mine and is totally allowed in my friends circle)

Just the App
I purchased just the book and then downloaded the app. It’s basically not functional. I have everything else off on my phone and it still takes 30+ seconds to respond to anything, if it ever does. To use the search bar to look for phrases, you have to literally select another tab (like books) and then go back to the phrases tab for it to actually initiate a search. I’m not sure what the point of the app is because I can’t actually see what it is designed to do in action. I am really hoping for some fixes because this is so disappointing.

Program is amazing the app leaves a lot to be desired
I love this program and the content on the app is fantastic, but my app rarely works. If I try to click on a word in my practiced or practicing list it often doesn’t play the right word and no matter what I do it won’t play the word I’ve selected. The search feature also is not comprehensive.
I would love to have an app that actually works most of the time.

So incredibly slow
This app hasn’t been updated in a year. It is so incredibly slow it’s annoying. When trying to just do a few min of language a day, it’s almost impossible to use because it won’t load the phrases. I’m talking it takes several minutes to load the phrases so you can practice listening. This app could absolutely be amazing but it needs help. I feel like the app is a necessity with the monthly boxes so you can listen and learn proper pronunciation, but with the app taking so long to load it really makes it a drag.
