### 2/5 — Images not generating

*2026-08-20, version 2.6.2*

I’ve been a fan of Neko Ai for quite some time. The images it generates are awesome and great. But as of late I’ve been having issues with generating images. It just keeps saying network busy. I noticed that the last update was made 9 months ago. What happen? I’m hope they fix this soon because it would be such a shame to lose a great app

### 2/5 — What used to be a great AI image app no longer generates at all…

*2026-08-20, version 2.6.2*

Been having the same issues that recent reviews have noted with failed image generations that read as “network busy, please try again”. You have to spam tap & refresh to get the prompt to retry - after like 10-15 minutes it will sometimes generate, but more often than not it will fail again. Pushing the prompt through, despite it not finishing still takes your credits, but you don’t receive a count towards the daily return bonuses until it completes so generating now burns credits faster & doesn’t even work.

This used to be the best, most user friendly anime character generator on the App Store but since it hasn’t received a meaningful update in over 9 months - it might just be abandonware now :/ crazy too if they’re still charging for subscriptions & neglecting to fix these critical issues. 

Would NOT recommend buying any in-app purchases at this time until (if) this gets fixed.

### 3/5 — It did work really well

*2026-08-20, version 2.6.2*

But I haven’t been able to generate a single image in weeks. Keeps saying network busy please retry. Doesn’t matter what time of day or how many attempts are made, just doesn’t work anymore

### 5/5 — Update please

*2026-08-19, version 2.6.2*

I love this app so much it can create such amazing stuff but recently the pictures I’ve been trying to make don’t load anymore no matter how much I retry, please update so that the pictures can work

### 2/5 — Use to be great but…

*2026-08-19, version 2.6.2*

App use to be good. But recently image generation fails and it says Network Busy please try later. You can refresh it multiple times throughout the day and it says the same. You end up losing credits for creating images. So far if have had 5 images fail at 108 credits each, total 540, then you get 50 credits for creating 10 images daily but as it’s not created images I’ve lost another 250 credits. For a combined total of 790 credits.

### 3/5 — Sometimes works sometimes doesn’t

*2026-08-19, version 2.6.2*

Spent a few dollars for it to always say network busy retry again and the images never loading

### 1/5 — App not working as intended

*2026-08-19, version 2.6.2*

Forget help if you need customer service. they won’t answer. Images been stuck on network error, even when you’re generating one image. Forget ten images.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.2*

Keeps on saying “looks like your internet took a break” and retrying multiple times still not working please fix this

### 2/5 — So slow

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.2*

I still haven’t been able to generate any images, it’s been three days so far

### 5/5 — It’s almost perfect

*2026-08-17, version 2.6.2*

The image generation takes about an hour and if I open another app or my network drops for a millisecond, the image fails and it says please retry… I can’t even spend the free check-in points that I get daily. SMH.
