Speaky - Language Exchange
A fast and easy-to-use language exchange app that instantly connects you with native speakers around the world.
What is Speaky - Language Exchange?
Streamlined Language Exchange
Speaky offers a simpler language-exchange interface than services built around larger social feeds or learning toolsets. It strips away all the distracting features and focuses entirely on one thing: connecting you with a native speaker for a 1-on-1 text or voice chat as quickly as possible.
How It Works
You select your native language and the language you are trying to learn. The app then presents you with a list of users who are native in your target language and want to learn yours. You can filter the list to show people who are currently online, ensuring you get an instant reply.
Built for Text and Audio
Speaky's interface is a traditional chat client. You can send text messages, audio clips, and images. Unlike its competitors, it does not have built-in translation or complex grammar correction tools within the chat interface, which forces you to rely on your actual knowledge (or external dictionaries).
Speaky Premium
The app is mostly free, but heavy users might encounter ad pop-ups. Upgrading to Premium removes ads, boosts your profile to the top of the search list, and allows you to filter users by gender.
