I was enjoying this app until I got to the eloquence section of the “Vocal Delivery Basics”. I would give a speech, careful to use pauses instead of filler words, and then it would give me a poor rating and said I used 17 filler words. (Another problem is that they don’t even tell you which filler words you used). The button to replay my recording was also non-functional. I then did the same exercise and purposefully used a ton of filler words (like, um, uhhhh) in every sentence, and they gave me a good grade and said I had used only 6 and that I had spoken fluently. After that, I feel like I really can’t trust this app’s accuracy, and at the current price, that’s a big problem. I would like to hear if the developer plans on fixing this problem because I think this app has great potential.

Generally the free version is so limited they might as well make you pay for the app right off the get go. Maybe I’m missing something. Just disappointed that the free version is so limited! On the bright side though, the developers were smart because the voice of the narrator is energetic and fun!! (I mock Pearson MyMathLab narrator for an extremely monotone voice). (we know math is a boring subject, let’s at least make it fun) Ok I’m getting off topic but hope you get my point!! I encourage you to check it out and please DO NOT ever switch to a narrator that’s dull and boring!! He could use this app!

I downloaded Speeko with two other similar apps, and deleted the other two after trying all out for a week. Speeko strikes a good balance among voice exercises, instruction videos, and impromptu speaking topics. I also particularly like the “stats” section where I could see how I do (and improve) in each area. One thing I find frustrating, though, is that there isn’t enough demonstration on HOW I could vary my pitches. I wish there could be a side by side comparison of a flat speech and a more colorful speech. Or have Speeko point out where in my recording that I could vary my pitch, and how to accomplish that. Instead, I’m only receiving a generic feedback that I sound robotic, without concrete advice on how to fix it. Meanwhile, after being around 10 days in, I’m already done with 1/4 of the whole course. I look forward to seeing more content coming out to make my annual subscription worthwhile. Overall great work!
