Erla review
A Turkish-learning app with contextual lessons and AI-guided speaking practice.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Nov 2026
Erla is a mobile app for learning Turkish through listening tasks, stories, short videos, vocabulary practice, and AI conversations. It is aimed at learners who want to build comprehension and speaking skills with contextual material rather than relying only on drills. Its course levels run from zero through advanced, and daily goals and progress tracking help learners follow their activity. Despite its placement in a Greek-learning category, the product’s described lessons and learning content are specifically Turkish, so Greek learners should choose a Greek-focused alternative.
The learning activities connect reading, listening, and language explanations: stories include read-along audio, and learners can tap sentences for translations and grammar explanations. Short videos reveal subtitles on a second play, while listening exercises use native-sounding audio. The Vocabulary Wallet saves words for practice in context. AI text chat and voice conversations add a speaking dimension, with feedback from an AI tutor or teacher, including pronunciation feedback. Lesson content can also be downloaded for offline access. These features make Erla a better fit for learners seeking varied Turkish comprehension and speaking practice than for those looking for a narrow vocabulary app.
Erla offers a free plan with daily limits on listening, stories, videos, and games, plus a 7-day free trial. Erla Pro Monthly and Erla Pro Annual both add unlimited practice, Chat and Talk, grammar above A1, and full lesson history. The published US App Store pricing is subject to country variation. Erla is available on iOS and Android, and email is the listed support channel. Learners who want AI-guided Turkish practice may find its mix of activities relevant; anyone seeking Greek instruction should look elsewhere.
