### 3/5 — Cool concept but can’t retain a connection.

*2026-08-11, version 0.5.14*

Like the title says, the conversation is constantly dropped

### 3/5 — Emotion expression good, reasoning bad

*2026-06-03, version 0.5.14*

This is the only service that seems to correctly recognises emotion in voice and also express it. 10/10

However as a reasoning model it is very poor. It reminds me of Emacs’s doctor mode, where every sentence you write is replied to with a request to go deeper, but without adding any new information or insight.

It will be nice when the emotional awareness of this app is added to strong reasoning models like Claude or ChatGPT. Maybe Hume could serve as an overlay?

### 1/5 — No chat

*2026-05-30, version 0.5.14*

You’re only allowed to talk on the phone. There is no chat box aloud. And it is very gibberish.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2026-05-25, version 0.5.14*

I’ve been trying to have a basic conversation and the app keeps getting locked up and disconnected. It also keeps repeating the same thing and doesn’t move forward and then gets locked up again. I hope you can work on this app and make it more useful because I think it does have a lot of potential.

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2026-05-08, version 0.5.14*

Gives incorrect information, then it gets stuck in a loop saying the same things over and over again.
I found myself teaching the ai but it was so frustrating.

### 1/5 — The name doesn’t work

*2026-04-18, version 0.5.14*

Why do you give the option to name the character if you are just going to give them the name you want? For instance, my character is a man, and I named him Lee, but he says his name is Sarah!! That makes NO SENSE!!

### 1/5 — Repetitive

*2026-03-28, version 0.5.14*

Just keeps repeating everything I say, so annoying.

### 2/5 — disconnecting a lot

*2026-03-07, version 0.5.14*

The  bot disconnects mid conversation a lot and I just downloaded the app, I didn’t really get to test it because if it 🤷

### 5/5 — 5 stars, but those avatars! 😫😖

*2026-03-02, version 0.5.14*

Is the message there that we are all ugly on the outside? Or maybe you wanted to give back to the community so you picked a random homeless shelter and had a draw-ring contest - winner gets a job making our avatars? Guaranteed that shelters contain brilliant artists but the one you picked had three residents yea? Well, despite that deboggle, jolly good work on the app buildout and product premise.  Love the thinking here.  What’s next on your big bucket list??

### 1/5 — UX in decay

*2026-02-26, version 0.5.14*

Bring the old style UI/UX. I was a big fan of it, and now that I went back it was overwhelming and annoying. What happened?
