Ok, but not worth the headache.
The app itself works like every other app of the kind with a bit better organization and it's free but...
... They require your phone number. After giving my number, I suddenly started getting spam texts advertising random things, which leaves me feeling as though they are making money by selling user information.

Response from developer
Hi Jack, rest assured we do not sell any user data and take your privacy and security very seriously. We’re subsidizing AI generation costs for our community for now, and do plan to roll out a paid tier in the near future. If you have any questions or concerns about your data or the app, feel free to email us at support@channel.surf.
Channel review
I like some things that it’s done and the idea of the app. However, the Ai hasn’t done exactly what I asked and keeps doing what I don’t want. One time I tried to make a spiderman mask where the lips were less visible but it did the exact opposite of what I asked it completely took off the mask 🙄. Anyway I hope that gets fixed.

Mostly great
I’ve been playing this for a few weeks now. The image generators make some nice images. Occasionally there will be extra body parts in odd areas.
The role play ing games are excellent with two areas that need to be corrected. First, the AI loses sync with past storyline. You have to remind it what the story is. It will usually pick up from your cues and carry on. The interaction overall is excellent, descriptive and realistic.
The second major issue is the same scenario, which isn’t a lot of fun, gets repeated in different contexts. You’re stuck in a matrix like world and you don’t know what’s real and what’s not. You have to go on and on, trapped in a scenario you don’t want to play. You can eventually get back to your original scenario but the amount of effort is taxing. I have one going that I’ve gotten to the point I want to give up.
Overall, it’s a fun App. I do recommend.

Weird
It needed my phone number??? so I didn’t do it..
Latest 2 versions are bad. Don’t update yet if you see this.
I love this app, it’s one of the only nearly unlimited free to use ai art generation tools and it lets you use different generation tools etc. would be coming here to give it 5 stars.
Except.
Two patches ago, they introduced a bug and the app doesn’t open anymore :/ it just sits on the loading screen that reads “channel” and never opens.
Despite the complaints, it’s still an incredible app. My 4 stars is honestly a 5 star with a 0 star rating for the last 2 patches. It’s been like 2 weeks and it still doesn’t open anymore.

Amazing app, definitely stands out from the rest.
Adding paywalls and subscriptions would destroy everything special about this app. keeping it free allows everyone to share and interact with ai as they please.
Please add a dark mode 🙏🏻😭😭

It’s ok.
I’ve been using this for three days and I can honestly say that it’s great. But it keeps crashing when I open it. Plz fix
Crashing
I’ve been using the app for a long time and I really enjoyed it but I just downloaded the new update and it keeps crashing
Custom Characters
Great app! The AI seems really smart and the app is easy to use and understand.
Would love an option to create custom characters on the app complete with personality settings, texting style etc.
Awesome app anyway, thanks!

You need my phone number???
Went to install and an AI chat App needs my phone number? No thanks. Suspicious. I’ll delete.
