### 5/5 — Disgruntled

*2026-08-09, version 0.0.40*

I used the app the same way as I’ve seen another users plug in ideas and fanfics. Wildly disappointed. Uninstalling immediately.

### 4/5 — Enjoying it a lot but

*2026-08-05, version 0.0.40*

I like this app so far. It’s fun to talk to the characters and write your own story together with the ai.

One thing though I’ve noticed is sometimes the replies revert back to shorter. I have kindred + and it’s frustrating when the ai suddenly changes back to the one narrative reply plus one of the rp character then waits for your reply.

When it can be really depth explaining action and scenery and continuing the scene further. Giving 4-5 paragraphs replies. This is amazing, especially with paying for it monthly is like to keep this structure instead of it occasionally reverting back to not + :-/

### 3/5 — Forgetful Characters

*2026-07-21, version 0.0.39*

I loved everything about how.How you can watch ads to continue the story unlike other apps of the same kind.But the memory of the characters has gone so bad.I downloaded it just 3 days ago and yet the characters keep on forgetting something we were talking about a minute ago.If this problem is fixed , i will give it five stars.

### 5/5 — App Layout & Appearance

*2026-07-16, version 0.0.39*

There should be an option to change the background of the chats to a plain color

### 2/5 — Decrease in Quality

*2026-07-13, version 0.0.39*

The quality from when I first joined in March 2026 is very obvious. The bot typical doesn't match with what's going on in the story.

### 4/5 — A wonderful app

*2026-06-18, version 0.0.38*

Such a wonderful experience 
But lately, i feel like the bots memory has gone down 
Like it’s just bad, i’m talking with them about something and they forget about it after two messages

### 5/5 — My Dream App

*2026-06-18, version 0.0.38*

I found this on TikTok and began Beta testing it back in November. I have nothing but great things to say about this app. I love the narration and how it mixes elements of fanfiction and chatting. I’ve never bought a subscription for any app before, but this is the first time I have. Of course it’s a new app and you have some bugs here and there, but overall I enjoy this app so so much thank you to the developers and the creator ❤️ i’m looking forward to the future and seeing what new additions will be made.

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2026-06-14*

I LOVE THIS APP

### 1/5 — new updates

*2026-06-08, version 0.0.37*

the new updates are kind of sneaky. one day i’ll wake up with the app perfect, rich narration, long character replies, and the narration doesn’t speak for my OC. woke up today and the messages are super compact, the “secrets” tab is useless since the AI can’t actually read it or implement it into their story. the chats are super compact, sloppy and lazy, the chats also narrate for my OCs, basically hijacking my story.

### 4/5 — Pros Outweigh The Cons

*2026-06-04, version 0.0.36*

I was an OG c.ai user, back when they only had a website, no subscriptions, and several bugs—back when it was GOOD. Most people don’t remember when c.ai was an absolute revolutionary site, but that’s because it’s only gone downhill. I’ve recently cut down dramatically on the time I spend on c.ai because of all the money-hungry updates, and Kindred is actually SO good. They do have some memory issues, but all the ai apps I’ve tried do. You can really tell the creators love the app, and you don’t have to purchase any of the cool chat backgrounds like you do on c.ai, and the chats are surprisingly faithful to the characters. A few bugs and memory issues, but they’ve yet to sell out like c.ai did. If you grew up reading/writing fanfics/spent at least some of the past few years experimenting with c.ai and chai, this is the absolute best variant I’ve come across. Keep it up!
