Most language apps have you tapping multiple-choice answers. Klar has you talking. Klar is a voice-first language tutor. You practice out loud in a real spoken conversation with an AI tutor that explains a word, gives examples, asks you to use it in your own sentence, and listens to your reply — all by voice. It's the closest thing to a patient one-on-one teacher in your pocket. LEARN BY SPEAKING, FROM DAY ONE Speaking is the hardest skill to build and the one most apps avoid. Klar is built around it. Start a session and you're talking within seconds. BUILD YOUR OWN WORD LIST You add the words you actually want to learn. Klar cleans them up automatically — translating, fixing the article and spelling, checking the meaning — so every entry is correct. The tutor then teaches those exact words and tracks each one from New to Learning to Learned. MEETS YOU AT YOUR LEVEL Set your level on the CEFR scale (A1–C2) and the tutor calibrates how fast and how richly it speaks. Beginners get slower, simpler language with an English hint when stuck; advanced learners get more demanding material. Change it any time, even mid-session. FOUR LANGUAGES, EACH ITS OWN Learn German, Spanish, French, or Dutch — each with its own native-sounding voice and its own separate word list, so nothing mixes together. MADE FOR REAL LIFE - Hands-free mode for practicing while walking or commuting - Adjustable tutor speed (Neutral, Slow, Very slow) - A curated Word of the Day pitched to your level - Light and dark themes - Your settings follow you across every device you sign in on PRIVATE BY DESIGN No ads. No data selling. No advertising trackers — so iOS never even shows you a tracking prompt. You can delete your account and all your data any time, right from the app. HONEST ABOUT AI The tutor is powered by AI and can occasionally be wrong — and Klar tells you so openly, right on the practice screen. PRICING Everyone gets 10 free practice minutes every 30 days. Klar Pro is $11.99/month for 200 minutes of tutor practice. Subscribers who want more can add a 100-minute top-up for $4.99. Start with your first word today. — Klar Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends.
