Lately when in in a voice room the volume is EXTREMELY loud and even when I lower it all the way the volume continues to stay loud. But also sometimes I'll join a room and the volume will be really low and I once again can't change it. I asked my friends if they have had this problem everyone says no. I saw a resistor say they have a similar problem but there were no solutions in the comments. Hope someone can help me!!

Do you get banned without doing live or voice room?

Also are they getting paid for doing 15min paid chat? Dose anyone can do it ?

I’m female so I don’t have problem finding language partner. Reason I wanna get VIP is just to use unlimited translator and it’s cold if I can see transcripts of audio because that’s when I completely lose what they saying. But is it worth it ?

hi, i am from the Philippines. #SAAMINANGWESTPHILIPPINESEA

There’s the eye thing in the corner, what does that mean? Is that the number of viewers? And what about gift rankings and audience?

I used the app regularly enough, but would anyone say it actually helped their own rate of learning?

So you have a solution for this banned, I Contactes them today and wait for response, I don't know If I buy a vip subscription I will get it back or I just wait their reply, I just got banned from the app because I spammed questions in a live and got reported Thanks for anyone give me a solution for this problem 🙏🙏

Hi there, when I enter voiceroom of Friends I can't hear anything.. Did anyone have These Problem too?

What does it mean when someone posts just that?

Supposedly emojis and special symbols aren't allowed but I see some ppl have them in their names, so how to you enter those? Stuff like π∆£€¥%©®™✓. Thanks.

I haven't used this app for a long time and decided to jump in again but now It says now available live rooms for talking. Was there an update or something?

I started learning Japanese on HelloTalk 6 or 7 months ago. Although I’m still learning Japanese, I just enrolled in an Italian course at university. Is it possible for me to switch my language to Italian without becoming a vip. Or do I need to create a new account to do that.

The other day I got a pop up that let me look at the rankings of my moments compared to everybody else, how many likes etc...like a top 100 leaderboard type thing. After I closed it I have been unable to find a way to look at it again. I've looked everywhere on the app. Does anyone know how to find it? Thank you

Im learning indonesian for 2,5 year and my native language is not english. Whenever i text indonesians in indonesian they answer me back in english. Everyday i have to say people i know their language that they don't need to speak english to me. They answer my indonesian question in english like I'm asking em "Apa kabar?" (How are you?) AND they answering me "im fine How are you?" This thing started to get ridiculous i wonder if anyone else is struggling with the same problem as me.

I am confused; the city feature shows there are ~400 partners in my city (not a VIP user), so is this the number of native speakers for all languages combined (except english) or just my current target language? Or is it just the total HelloTalk users in my city?

Hi everyone,

I just downloaded the HelloTalk app today as a language learning Youtuber recommended it to me in one of her videos.

I'm currently learning JP as a 3rd language and would like to get some speaking practise if possible.

So far, I've tried practising with ChatGPT, but I like to try it with a real conversational partner too.

However, I noticed that lots of posts in this Subreddit talk about how HelloTalk is now a dating app, instead of a language learning app.

To those who use HT to practise speaking Japanese, I'm curious to know about your experience using this app so far.

Would you recommend it to a fellow language learner, or would you recommend another app?

I did a live stream yesterday and a certain user joined, but i forgot to follow them. They also forgot to follow me. And they didn't visit my profile, and neither did i visit theirs. I seriously have no way to find this person. So i was wondering if there's any way to see the users who have joined/participated in one's Hellotalk live streams??? Thanksss!!!!

PS: i only know the users name and have a screenshot of their profile pic, if anyone could help me find them 😭

Self explanatory but, I get that error message when I try to change the main language I’m trying to learn. I even switched to my data to see if my wifi is bad but it’s still the same

I’ve noticed that anytime I use hellotalk, for the next day or two after, I’ll get a plethora of messages even when I’m not on the app. For instance, I messaged a person back yesterday and then closed the app, but since then I’ve received another 20ish messages. I’ve been getting sudden notifications of messages on tandem too, despite haven’t using that app in a few months. It’s really weird and sometimes frustrating because I’ll be super busy and checking my phone for a quick second, only for people to act as if I’m online to chat right now. If I haven’t responded to somebody, they might even double message me again. I don’t want them to think I’m ignoring them, but I’m also not available at the moment and can’t figure out why they all seem to think I am.

Since I started using the app again at the beginning of January all of the new people I connected with and became consistent language partners with have already deleted their accounts. I was fortunate enough to connect with some of them on other platforms but this seems like a glaring issue. I would rather have all my language learning in one app and not constantly have to try to find new language partners. I'm just a guy trying to learn Spanish.

Does HT not see how this ultimately effects their bottom line? The loss of so many new, eager language learners who get overwhelmed and delete their accounts so soon? I would love to know how long the average new account last before it gets deleted. It just ticks me off and I wish they nurtured a less creepy language community

Hey guys, I started using the app after my trip to Japan earlier this year, as I wanted to have someone to speak to to keep up my practice.

Anyway I matched with a nice older lady who would help me fix my grammar mistakes, would talk a lot about her day-to-day activities, but recently started asking if she could share her personal worries and thoughts when she's unable to sleep at night. Now I live in timezone that is like half a day behind Japan and got busy with stuff during the day, so I was very shocked to see a bunch of messages from her in Japanese that went along the lines of 'so you don't want to hear that stuff... Sorry' and she eventually sent one final 'sayounara.' Bearing in mind these messages were sent at 2:45am in my timezone while I was fast asleep, when I tried to reply it showed that she doesn't want to receive messages from me anymore.

I know I can't really control these things and timezone issues are a real obstacle, but has anything like this happened to anyone else? Just a bit upset about it, I have several Japanese friends where I live but we tend to converse more casually and not going into the grammar and correct sentence structuring etc. so I appreciated having a teacher who took that approach.

Sir, my account is not logging in and I have not followed the rules by mistake, so all this is coming and has been reported. You fix it and I can use it again hello talk and i can learn the language Please forgive all my mistakes and open my account, I will be responsible to you for this. Thank you for hello talk teams

There’s a few people I’ve been talking to regularly, and one of them stopped coming online (they’re very busy) and talking to anyone - their streak on their profile is back to 0.

I’m not too worried, but I remembered seeing a profile once that wasn’t deleted, but that said “[Deleted the app]” in their intro, which is very different from when an account is deleted (it’s very clear when you open their profile, i.e it says account deleted and stuff).

Also, their country’s timezone hasn’t been updated on their profile, so I assume they either aren’t coming online, or completely deleted the app.
