Check that BolSetu has microphone permission in your phone's Settings, and that you're somewhere reasonably quiet. On Android, speech recognition needs Google's app installed and enabled. You can always type your answer instead — scoring works exactly the same.
Mostly no. Phrases, quizzes, scoring and your progress all work offline. Two things can need a connection: the optional "Get AI feedback" button, and — on some phones — speech recognition when you tap the mic. If your phone asks, use the "Download offline English" link on the speaking screen, or just type your answer instead.
Progress is saved on your phone, not in an online account, so it does not move between devices and is removed if you uninstall the app. Sync across devices is something we plan to add.
Every learner gets a few free AI feedback checks. After that, the sample answers and all speaking practice stay free, and BolSetu Pro adds unlimited feedback.
Right now lessons teach English and are explained in Hindi. Tamil, Telugu, Bengali and Marathi explanations are next, followed by more languages to learn.
Tap "Reset my progress" on the home screen, or uninstall the app. We hold nothing on a server — see the privacy policy.
