It gave this native English speaker "Swedish" with p > 90%. Just confirms the feeling I get every time I go to Sweden that they really do speak better English than me.

Not very good guesses. It had me read twice and I used a high quality mic. It guessed Spanish as my native language, but picked up a bit of Chinese and a bit of English. I am a native born American whose only language is English and a life long Midwesterner. I have a midwestern accent and occasionally some Canadian influences sneaks in (or so people have told me), but Spanish/Chinese? Completely wrong.
I had the same thing happen! 83% English, 3% Spanish, 2% Chinese. I am super midwestern, lived here all my life. I didn't realize I was saying "ope" until I saw a meme about it.

As a non-native speaker, it is very very accurate even for Hungarian, which is quite a tiny language. I have sent it to several friends and it "caught" them all.

Not bad, as I have been accused of having a not-so-prominent English accent by people around me
My mind is blown right now. My whole life I've been told that my speech is so American and that I don't have a Russian accent (left Russia when I was 4). Lo and behold, this app tells me that my accent is Russian (61%) with English being a distant second (13%).
Then I did my best Russian accent and on the first time it gave me Hindi/Urdu at 80+%. I tried it a second time rolling my r's a bit more and it settled on Russian at 70%.
I think it's very sensitive to specific tells and I suspect the dataset for Russian accents may not account for all the variations in regional pronunciation and dialects.

It might be a kindness to redact those emails before you can no longer edit your post.
