TalkPro helps you practice putting your thoughts into words. Pick a word, set a timer, speak, then listen back. EXPRESSION PRACTICE Open Expression Practice in the Special tab. Roll through five visible words, tap to pause on the centered word, then tap Next. Select 60 or 120 seconds and review the data-sharing explanation. After consent, use up to five minutes to organize your thoughts or gather material. Start recording when ready and follow the circular timer. Each recording requires its own upload consent. After it is saved on your device, AI transcribes your speech and offers text-based feedback on clarity and flow, with references to what you said. Replay recordings, read transcripts and reports in History, and practice again using the suggestion. AI recognition and feedback can be inaccurate; they do not assess your accent or personal ability. AI expression practice currently supports Chinese and English. MORE WAYS TO PRACTICE Use cue words, guided questions, pyramid exercises and scenarios for interviews, meetings and conversations. A simulated live room offers a camera preview and generated audience activity for private practice, without broadcasting. Browse History and progress trends, set a daily goal, and allow an optional daily practice reminder that you can turn off in Settings. Recordings and long-term history stay on your device and can be exported or deleted. FREE PRACTICE AND TALKPRO PLUS Free users can complete one basic cue-word session each day. Expression Practice and other member features require an active TalkPro Plus subscription. Eligible previous paid purchasers retain their original access. Monthly and annual plans offer the same benefits. Online AI analysis has a separate allowance, explained in the app. Prices and billing periods are shown before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be managed or canceled in your Apple Account settings. Restore Purchases recovers eligible access. PRIVACY AND CHOICE Local practice needs no TalkPro account or personal AI API key. Audio is uploaded for transcription and analysis only after you consent to that recording; video is never uploaded. AI services connect to Volcano Engine through Cloudflare. See the privacy policy for short-term encrypted caching and allowance records. Optional AI-generated prompts also require consent. English, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Thai interfaces and local practice content are available for iPhone and iPad. AI expression practice currently appears in the Chinese and English interfaces.
