Frequently asked questions

The essentials, without the rabbit hole.

What is Spokn?

Spokn is a mobile, story-based speaking app that helps a new language feel familiar — you listen to short audio stories, answer questions out loud, hear natural modelled answers, and repeat the same lesson across days.

What does a lesson actually look like?

A short story plays bit by bit. After each bit, you're asked a "circling" question about it — you answer out loud, then hear how a native speaker would say it. At the end, you listen back to your own recordings and rate each one.

Is Spokn free?

Yes. The full lesson library and unlimited listening are free forever, with no time limit. Every learner also gets 10 practice sessions each calendar month, including recording and self-rating review. Pro Mode is a one-time $45 payment that removes the monthly limit for life.
