HelloTalk - Language Learning

My review not fair. I don’t understand why banned permanently with no reason.low quality app

I had been a dedicated user of HelloTalk for over five years, consistently finding it to be a valuable platform for language exchange. In fact, I had always intended to leave a glowing 5-star review to commend its effectiveness and user-friendly interface. However, recent events have forced me to reconsider my opinion entirely. My account was unjustly removed from HelloTalk, citing "political" reasons as the cause. This decision was made despite the fact that there was no political content whatsoever on my account. The incident occurred during a conversation with a friend where we were discussing media ethics. I simply referenced a historical event to highlight the neutrality of media in the past. To my shock, my account was promptly and permanently banned without warning or explanation. Naturally, I attempted to appeal this decision through HelloTalk's support team, hoping for a rational explanation or at least a chance to rectify any misunderstandings. Unfortunately, my efforts were met with nothing but irresponsible replies and a lack of transparency. The support team failed to address my concerns adequately, leaving me feeling frustrated and unfairly treated. Based on this egregious experience, I strongly advise against downloading HelloTalk. Not only was my account wrongfully removed, but the lack of accountability and poor customer support only exacerbate the issue. It's a shame that a platform I once held in high regard has failed so miserably in upholding fairness and transparency. Save yourself the trouble and avoid HelloTalk at all costs – it's nothing but a waste of time. Consequently, I'm compelled to give HelloTalk a 1-star rating, reflecting its failure to meet even the most basic standards of user respect and communication.

It's not fare with other who don't have phone number.I don’t wanna use my phone number and Hellotalk are forcing me to write my phone number .

I always encountered some of problems such as bug, lagging and crashing on my hellotalk

This app is full of issues. Once you delete the app from your phone for whatever reason and then re-download it, all your chats disappear. How cheap do you have to be to tie users’ chats so closely to their devices! Also, the app drains my iPhone’s battery so much that it’s worrying. The developers just want your money because literally for every action you perform on this app, they’ll ask you get the VIP version, until nothing is free and users are forced to purchase VIP. There are also so many fake accounts that belong to scammers. If you really want to learn a language, I suggest you invest in a better app than this piece of crap!

I am a happy user of HT before their major update to the app. The UI/UX is fine but the key points that make me miss the old version than the current are :- - Message notifications are no longer receive on your Apple Watch unless if user sends you a picture. - Message search by date history is bugged (please fix this ASAP as it doesn't show the history at all) I appreciate what the team are trying to do but I do hope they consider fixing and getting back the features I like! Thank you

After subscribing to an annual VIP membership, all of my posts are hidden from non-followers. They can’t see my post from the recent moment. Non-followers have to go to my profile instead to see. Only followers can see my posts. Already reported to the in-app admin but no action was taken. Please fix this HelloTalk. I paid a lot of real money for the membership you know. Don’t scam us subscribers👎🏻
