OK, so if I was gonna try this app and beat him but every time he guessed it, he guessed Rapunzel and Gary, the snake he guessed this girl from the anime I know and it’s not that popular. I think it’s called whisker away.

8 year old ACTUALLY SMART me: this game is Ai, bad game

### 1/5 — Too many Polybuzz ads

*2026-08-21, version 9.1.2*

I’m 10

### 1/5 — Virus

*2026-08-15, version 9.1.2*

It gave me a virus and I’m never installing again

### 1/5 — the downfall of akinator has to be studied

*2026-08-15, version 9.1.2*

yeh

### 1/5 — The Ai need's to be fixed or replaced.

*2026-08-15, version 9.1.2*

I constantly and continuously get either repeated questions or questions that have already been previously answered by earlier questions ON THE SAME CHARACTER. For example on the same character I answered "Yes" to the question "Is your character an Elf?" and then I was asked FIVE TIMES "Is your character a Human?" Which I answered "No" to every single time. As one can assume this is incredibly frustrating and has cost me black and platinum badges multiple times!

### 1/5 — Add more characters

*2026-08-14, version 9.1.2*

Can u add more characters, its only some questions and the ones that are linked with sonic and marvel, and i always expect the character i was supposed to think

### 1/5 — It sucks

Ttyuuugddg

### 1/5 — Pls ban this app from the app store

*2026-08-12, version 9.1.2*

I’ve heard from reviews akinator uses you microphone without your permission. So i tried it out and i said “okay akinator i’m gonna do taylor swift” and guess what the next question was does your character sing on a stage. Brooooo. That’s not funny. Remove this right now from the app store. ew.

### 1/5 — AI slop

*2026-08-12, version 9.1.2*

STOP THE SLOP

Akinator made animations but they are so clearly AI! Plus, AI ads too!!! I’m not playing something that uses so much AI it’s unavoidable and crystal clear!

### 1/5 — Bad
