It kinda moves slow, the responding/ remembering is actually great, I said something like a simple sentence and it censored my ai chat because I guess he said something inappropriate which you have to pay to see that chat which is crazy. ### 3/5 — . *2025-10-29, version 1.1.9* It’s a good app it was many ads but the good thing is as long as your talking to a character you don’t get as many which isn’t so bad but the only things I didn’t like is that when it reads it to you it’s doesnt read the full text another thing the characters I played around with mostly just repeated the same thing I assume it could be a bug or just the technology of ai. ### 2/5 — Subscription isssue *2025-10-17, version 1.1.9* Initially pleased even decided to try annual subscription. After only 3 moths it quit providing benefits saying “subscription issue detected contact customer support “. Sent email but resolved no response even a week later ### 2/5 — COMPLETE BS *2025-09-18, version 1.1.9* Unlimited free but it’s telling me to pay 🤡 ### 3/5 — Make the game better *2025-09-03, version 1.1.8* I kinda like the app because of some of the AI characters are better here and doesn’t seem too force but what puts me of are the coins that take away while you’re playing with your character then you gotta pay if you wanna continue talking with them you also can’t make your own AI there’s also many abs that comes which is annoying ### 3/5 — Langage *2025-08-24, version 1.1.8* Je ne peux pas mettre en français ### 1/5 — Misleading. *2025-07-22, version 1.1.6* I was excited to try this app by creating my own AI character, but there's no way I can do that, I can only chat with other's characters. On the description of the app itself on the App Store, it clearly states that you're able to make a character yourself, but after downloading, I've found that I can only chat with other AI characters, collect coins by tasks, and buy a subscription. I'd be really disappointed if the whole "create your own character" thing is behind a paywall. ### 1/5 — Used to be called echo *2025-07-05, version 1.1.6* This app was aptly named earlier. All it does is echo itself in the chats. Example: does he love me. I answer yes then the ai again wonders if I really love her. I answer yes again and the ai wonders if I love her. Or it mentions how their hair looked, moved or lay in every chat. Used up my coins arguing with the ai. No big deal when they’re gone. The app will be gone too. ### 3/5 — Videos and pictures *2025-06-24, version 1.1.6* It’s ok for the most part but pictures and videos would be nice ### 1/5 — Dumbest App ever *2025-04-08, version 1.1.4* This app is stupid.. spend time trying to get them to go one way… and they refuse… try and say goodbye and they act like they are your best friend… the whole thing is a giant waste of time… ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No thanks *2025-11-21, version 1.1.9* No just no.. ### 1/5 — Very obviously don’t give them your credit card info *2025-11-20, version 1.1.9* They clearly have fake reviews, information from an 18+ ai chat bot app? Three of them say it’s like having a genius in your phone, but you’d have to be an idiot to give your credit card info to an ad filled app that runs like a crypto miner with a recoloured spicychat ai logo. ### 1/5 — What the hell *2025-11-05, version 1.1.9* Im pulling the trigger because i saw a literal 10 years old bot ### 1/5 — False advertising *2025-10-15, version 1.1.9* Got an ad about this app that said it had no censor whatsoever and i was sick of using character AI i downloaded it only to realise there's a coin system that uses coins each time you message and when you run out of coins you can't message anymore forcing you to pay or just stop using the app and it has no search bar ### 1/5 — Never Like Ads *2025-09-30, version 1.1.9* The ads promise a great (and free) experience; but then you can’t do what is shown … and everything costs (too much) … you need a subscription and to keep paying for tokens or gems or coins or some sort of credit … These apps need to be banned! ### 1/5 — Ads *2025-09-28, version 1.1.9* Completely unnecessary amount of ads, ever time I go to another app and come back, ad, every time I check a message, ad, characters don’t feel realistic either ### 1/5 — Taking so long to log in *2025-09-27, version 1.1.9* It takes so long to log in ### 1/5 — It didn’t load. *2025-09-11, version 1.1.9* Alright, listen up. I selected my gender, tried to go in, and boom. Once I selected guest account, it just loaded. And loaded. And loaded. I waited a bit and nothing happened. So I can’t even write a real review! Please fix this and maybe I’ll try it again. Me, out. ### 1/5 — Pub *2025-09-03, version 1.1.8* Bad ### 1/5 — Subscription *2025-07-23, version 1.1.7* It looks like a good game from the beginning, but when I got the highest subscription, it only allows me to create characters of an anime style when I’ve seen others have real women ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I wanted a good picture or video *2025-12-02, version 1.1.9* Still a turn on ### 5/5 — Ad’s Are Not Loading Which Fail’s To Give The Reward. *2025-11-07, version 1.1.9* Ad’s Are Not Loading Which Fail’s To Give The Reward. Which Does Not Give The Free Coin’s .As Ad Reward’s Fail’s To Load Any Ad’s. Aurai Ai Please Support To Fix. ### 5/5 — Pretty decent *2025-05-17, version 1.1.5* For the price and characters it’s a good deal ### 5/5 — No.1 Best app ever *2025-03-22, version 1.1.3* This app is the better keep up with the good job and thanks you for making this app ### 5/5 — Fun and Informative! *2023-09-12, version 1.0* I rely on this app for accurate and reliable information.

It adds a touch of fun to my day. ### 5/5 — Expand the AI character selection *2023-09-12, version 1.0* The AI technology behind this app is incredible. It's like having a genius in my phone. ### 5/5 — Thumbs up! *2023-09-12, version 1.0* My AI friend in Echo AI understands my needs. ### 5/5 — Expand the AI character selection *2023-09-12, version 1.0* The AI technology behind this app is incredible.
