Subscription cost
Lingrow's annual plan costs $149.99 USD per year and starts with a 3-day free trial. The trial belongs to the annual plan. Monthly plans are also available, but their prices vary by country and currency. The App Store shows the exact monthly price for your region before you're charged. Everything is covered by one subscription, with no separate tier and no per-language charge. Lingrow is currently an iOS app only, so there isn't an Android or web version.
What is included
One subscription includes 200+ conversation scenarios in every language, with 340+ in Korean. You get real-time feedback while you speak, followed after each conversation by a summary covering grammar, vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation. Flashcards use spaced repetition, and you can save any word from a conversation. Explanations and feedback are available in 33 languages, so you don't have to learn through English. Korean also includes 123 guided lessons and a 9-lesson Hangeul course covering all 40 letters, with ratings for how you pronounce individual letters.
Cost per hour
$149.99 a year is about $0.41 a day. If you choose to practise for 15 minutes every day, that adds up to roughly 91 hours of speaking practice over a year, or under $2 an hour. That usage is your choice, not a promise about how often you'll practise. For context, private language tutors on italki and Preply generally charge $23 to $34 an hour as of September 2026. A tutor gives you individual human judgement and support that an app doesn't, so the comparison is about cost, not equivalence.
Free Korean tools
You can use Lingrow's Korean tools at lingrow.io without creating an account or entering payment details. The free tools include the Hangeul chart, the written Hangeul guide, the level test, a TOPIK 1 mock test, a dictionary, a verb conjugator, a keyboard, a name converter and a romanisation converter. These browser-based tools are separate from the iOS subscription. The subscription covers the speaking app, its conversation practice, feedback, flashcards and guided Korean content; the listed Korean web tools remain available without payment.
Who should skip it
Lingrow isn't the cheapest language app. If you want a free daily habit, or if you mainly want vocabulary drills or a grammar course, you should pick something else. The subscription is intended for learners whose main problem is speaking: they know some of the language, but freeze when it's time to use it in a conversation. For that person, regular AI speaking practice, immediate feedback and a review after each conversation may justify the price. Whether it's worth it depends on how often you actually practise.

Frequently asked questions
- What does Lingrow cost?
- Lingrow's annual plan costs $149.99 USD per year. Monthly plans are also available, with prices set by country and currency and shown in the App Store before you're charged. Both options provide one subscription rather than separate feature or language tiers. Lingrow is available on iOS only.
- Is there a free trial, and how long is it?
- Yes. The annual plan starts with a 3-day free trial. The trial sits on the annual plan. You can cancel through your App Store subscription settings before the trial ends, and you won't be charged. If you continue, the annual subscription costs $149.99 USD per year.
- How much is the monthly plan?
- Monthly plans are available, but there isn't one worldwide monthly price to quote. Pricing varies by country and currency. Open Lingrow's subscription options in the App Store to see the exact price for your region before you're charged. The annual plan is $149.99 USD per year.
- Can I use Lingrow for free?
- Yes. Lingrow's Korean tools on lingrow.io are free without an account or payment. They include the Hangeul chart and written guide, level test, TOPIK 1 mock test, dictionary, verb conjugator, keyboard, name converter and romanisation converter. The iOS speaking app's full content requires a subscription.
- How do I cancel?
- Cancel in the App Store's subscription settings, as you would for any iOS subscription. If you're using the 3-day free trial, cancel before it ends and you won't be charged. Lingrow is iOS only, so subscription management is handled through the App Store rather than on lingrow.io.
- Is Lingrow worth it compared with a tutor?
- At 15 minutes a day, the annual plan gives you roughly 91 hours of speaking practice, putting the cost under $2 an hour. Private tutors on italki and Preply generally charge $23 to $34 an hour as of September 2026. A tutor provides human judgement and support an app can't, so these aren't equivalent services.
