LikeSo é uma ferramenta de análise de fala que ajuda os adolescentes a entender com que frequência eles usam 14 palavras de preenchimento, como “gosto”, “na verdade”, “bom” e “justo”.
O aplicativo também analisa a voz do usuário para obter a melhor velocidade. LikeSo, denominado “Your Personal Speech Coach”, inclui dois jogos: TalkAbout e FreeStyle. TalkAbout inclui 11 categorias, incluindo favoritos da cultura popular e equipes de debate.
FreeStyle allows users to practice their lines, focus on favorite topics or just chat about whatever they want. When the user speaks, the app records the number of times they speak the filler and keeps it in sync. Finally, LikeSo will compile a detailed report that can be saved and compared with future sessions.
A primeira escolha entre dois jogos LikeSo: TalkAbout ou FreeStyle. Para TalkAbout, selecione um tópico, o tempo de fala para cada prompt (30 ou 60 segundos) e, em seguida, toque na lista de palavras que deseja “treinar”.
Start a conversation based on the question or comment that comes up. You can also pause time or move this reminder to another reminder. After completing the order, review your report.
For FreeStyle, click on the speaking time (1, 2, 5 or 30 minutes) and the word you want to train and start speaking. When finished, review the results, including the session analysis. You can also view the results history to compare from different sessions.

This app looks like a game, but behind the fun is a serious purpose: to help improve formal presentation skills.
Ao despertar a consciência de palavras comuns usadas por adolescentes, a LikeSo esclareceu o impacto do uso repetido dessas palavras em ouvintes e falantes. Em conversas casuais com amigos, palavras de preenchimento podem ser boas, mas para adolescentes e adolescentes que estão acostumados a dizer palavras como “gosto” e “certo”? Durante a conversa, pode ser difícil falar em discursos e entrevistas.
This great app has two downsides: first, it's easy to monitor your speeches and avoid the usual padding in a game designed for users (except during a 30-minute meeting), but it's not like that.
It totally sucks, but without some support it might not translate into a formal statement. Second, LikeSo does not contain speech-enhancing abilities, which can be a particularly useful addition to the app. At the time of this review, there was a blog on the app's companion site that provided more information, but more skill integration could help transfer skills to actual speaking tasks.
