Made for moments like these

Some prepare you for real life. Some pick up from yesterday. All help you say what you actually mean.

  • Day one in Portuguese

    You said:
    Hi! I want to learn Portuguese.
    Pingo

    Olá! Let's start simple: how to say hello, who you are, and why you're learning. We'll go devagar — slowly.

  • Saying what you love in Portuguese

    Pingo

    Tell me what you really love. Try Eu adoro…

    You said:
    Eu adoro samba.

  • Picking Portuguese back up

    You said:
    O que vamos fazer hoje?
    Pingo

    Yesterday the subjuntivo got you a little. Let's pick it back up — com calma.

  • Before Rio in Portuguese

    You said:
    I'm going to Rio in February.
    Pingo

    Que bom! Let's practice ordering Um suco de açaí, por favor and small talk: Tudo bem?

  • Talking about your day in Portuguese

    You said:
    Estou cansado.
    Pingo

    Good. Now let's make it sound more natural: Estou cansado porque tive um dia longo. What made your day long?

  • Family churrasco in Portuguese

    You said:
    Oi, gente! Cheguei.
    Host

    Entra, entra! A carne tá quase pronta. Pega uma cerveja.

A few of them, in their own words.

  • “I've only had it for an hour and I've already spoken more than I have in a year with Duolingo.”

    Logan ArmitageGoogle Play

  • “Only 34 days in, and it's increased my speaking ability and confidence in ways I couldn't have imagined.”

    LeoSk8App Store

  • “Pingo excels at the last mile of language learning — making you feel comfortable and confident in another language. It's like having a foreign friend available to you 24/7.”

    ChrisKringle777App Store

  • “Extremely effective for quickly improving listening and speaking. It responds naturally and meets you at whatever skill level you're at.”

    lucasbarnes2App Store

  • “By far the smartest, most intuitive AI language partner available. The only one that speaks slow enough for me to understand and feels realistic enough to be an actual conversation.”

    mrmason1770App Store

  • “I find this app to be the best way of learning a language because it's just like having a language teacher, but more flexible around your schedule and way cheaper too.”

    HondaR1derApp Store

  • “Langua, Praktika, Speak, and others — I've tried them all. Pingo is the best. If you want to skip straight to the sauce, just download Pingo already.”

    informedreviewer4App Store

  • “This is by and large the best app I have EVER used to study languages. It is so flexible, so engaging, and never dull. I'm actually upset I didn't try this sooner.”

    EuriYuriApp Store

  • “Closest you can get to actually living in a country and doing real language immersion — but even better, because you can analyze everything you said to get better without annoying anyone.”

Frequently asked questions

Pingo helps you improve faster because you're speaking Portuguese from the start. Instead of drilling verb tables or vocabulary lists, you have real conversations — ordering at a botequim in Rio, asking for directions in Lisbon, chatting with your partner's family at a São Paulo churrasco — get corrected in the moment, and come back to practice what tripped you up last time. That loop builds confidence faster because it matches how Portuguese actually gets used.

Yes. Tell Pingo your goals and current level, and it builds a Portuguese learning plan around you. You'll start with greetings, numbers, gender, and the basics of conjugation through short, interactive conversations designed to get you speaking from day one. Pingo gives instant feedback on pronunciation (those nasal sounds especially), gender agreement, and verb forms so you internalize them by using them.

As you progress, conversational roleplay lets you practice real back-and-forth — ordering pão de queijo, asking for directions, chatting at a family churrasco. Pingo adapts to your pace, so early sessions stay manageable and rewarding.

Absolutely. Advanced learners can practice fast-paced conversations, business Portuguese, storytelling, and the differences between Brazilian and European Portuguese. Pingo gives detailed feedback on register, idiom, and natural phrasing — helping you sound fluent in meetings, family settings, and on the streets of Rio or Porto.

Yes! The free trial lets you try Pingo's real Portuguese conversations and personalized lessons so you can see how it works before subscribing.

Pingo Pro unlocks unlimited conversations, custom chats on any topic you want to practice, lessons built around your goals, and progress that carries across every session.
