What's new

# Product updates

September 17, 2026

## The Speakeroo app is here

### Everything, in your hand

Every practice mode, plus your sessions, issues, achievements, and dashboard. Sign in with the same account and your history is already there, because the app and the web share one library.

### Built for the gaps in your day

The app is made for a phone in your hand: a thumb-reachable layout, the system font at the size you already read at, and your phone’s own microphone. Record a 60-second take on the way to work and the feedback is waiting when you look down.

### Download it

Speakeroo is free on the App Store. Android is in the works, and we will say so right here when it lands.

## Focus mode, issue tracking, and a fresh look

### Focus mode

Shadow speaking and Read Aloud now have a distraction-free view: big text, one sentence at a time, and the rest of the page out of your way. While you record, the transcript lights up as you go and scrolls itself so you never lose your place. Duck in or out mid-recording, it stays the same take.

### Issues, tracked

Your session feedback now calls out specific speaking issues, highlights where they happened, and explains how to improve. Pin the ones you want to work on, hide the ones you do not, and follow your progress across sessions.

### One bold look

Speakeroo now feels more like Speakeroo wherever you meet it. Practice, progress, sign-in, and emails all share the same bold colours, crisp borders, and straight-talking design.

## Help me choose, Read Aloud, and ranks

### Help me choose

Staring at the practice page, unsure where to start? Tell us what you feel like doing and we hand you some ready-to-go picks. Hate them? One tap reshuffles. We remember your choice, so next time you just press go.

### Read Aloud

A new mode for reading out loud, minus the judgy audience. Hit play on the sample, tap any word to hear it from there, then record yourself and get the usual analysis. Save the passages you like for later.

### Ranks, streaks, and trophies

Practice now earns points up a five-tier ladder, from humble Earpod to full Stage. Show up daily and the trophy case fills up while you flex. Finish a session and the confetti finds you.

## Speaking metrics, chattier Converse, and team plans

### Speaking metrics

Sessions and your dashboard now show the receipts: words per minute, pauses, filler words, slip-ups, and how varied your vocabulary is. The numbers show up even when AI analysis is hidden for coach review.

### Converse partners who go first

Let your Converse partner break the ice so you are not the one starting cold. Each picks a random voice with an actual name, and that annoying flash of your bubble before the reply is gone.

### Team plans, coming soon

A team plan with shared seats, coaching workflows, and admin controls is in the works. More soon.
