### 1/5 — Not great.

*2026-07-18, version 4.238.0*

I used to be able to read my fics as I was writing and I can no longer do so. I emailed customer service and they never wrote back.  Now I can’t even send a reader link to read the fic. It’s a mess. I hate this app

### 1/5 — Way better before the pay wall

*2026-06-15*

Pirr AI used to be worth using. Now it’s buried under a paywall and has become one of the most frustrating AI apps I’ve tried.

What was once a fun, accessible app now feels like a constant attempt to squeeze money out of users. Features that made the app enjoyable are locked behind subscriptions, and the free experience is so restricted that it’s barely usable. Every time you try to do something, you’re reminded that you need to pay.

The worst part is that the app has gotten less enjoyable while becoming more expensive. There are plenty of AI apps that offer more value without aggressively limiting users at every turn.

I can’t recommend Pirr AI in its current state. If you’re looking for an AI storytelling app, there are better options that don’t put nearly everything behind a paywall.

**Developer response:** Hi there,  thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We understand how the current limits can feel frustrating, especially if you were used to broader access before. The free version is designed as a limited way to try Pirr, while premium access supports ongoing development and unlocks the full creative experience.

### 3/5 — Okay

*2026-05-18*

It’s pretty good, definitely a bit steep for the pricing but has a lot of features for writing and with the most recent updates it feels much more natural and flows better with more variation in sentence structure. I will say that with the last update, any prompt I try to put it will crash the generator, even prompts suggested. I CONSTANTLY have to completely close out the app and reopen it to try the prompts over and over again to try and get them to work. I also wish the 500 advance response thing (I forget what it’s called) had a way to replenish other than waiting for the beginning of the next month, even if it’s like $1 for another 150 responses or something, since I keep going through them so fast and then it reverts to the old generator and doesn’t feel the same and also just won’t match details from the advance generator

It’s a good app, just needs more refining and more options

**Developer response:** Thank you for such a thoughtful review, and for noticing the improvements to the writing experience. We're really pleased to hear the newer generation model feels more natural and varied.

We're also sorry to hear you're running into crashes when using prompts. That's definitely not the intended experience. Our team is actively investigating reports of prompt-related issues and feedback like yours helps us track down and resolve them faster. If you would like to send a more detailed account to support@pirr.me that would be great.

Regarding superior actions, we're glad to hear you're getting so much use out of them! We know many of our most engaged writers love additional ways to top up their credits. Credit packs are something we've introduced, but we're currently working through some App Store-related issues affecting purchases and hope to have a smoother experience available as soon as possible.

Thank you again for taking the time to share both the positives and the areas where we can improve. Feedback from long-time creators helps shape the future of Pirr.

### 5/5 — My creative outlet

*2026-03-17*

I enjoy this app so much. It’s very user friendly and the ai allows me to easily continue my story without losing steam.  I’m also loving the updated featured stories on the home page.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the glowing review! We appreciate knowing that the featured stories are finding their audience!

### 1/5 — Ruined by the pay wall

*2026-03-01, version 4.222.0*

A couple of years ago the ai was average, perhaps sub par. Came back a few months ago through boredom to find it had been vastly improved, it was great….. then they went and put it behind a pay wall. Which is fine but considered other ai will write the same stuff for free, it’s now rather redundant.

### 3/5 — It’s an ok app

*2026-02-22, version 4.221.1*

It’s a good app but lately I have been having trouble with it saying something like comfort or something saying it’s violent which makes no sense.

### 1/5 — Extremely limited

*2026-02-01*

The app itself may still be free, but now you have to pay $13 a month to access many of the basic features, including genre (8 premade options), tags (selected at random, unchangeable), and characters (1 character), which defeats the entire purpose of the app. The current version also limits free users to less than one message per hour (20 actions per 24 hour period) and restricts the number of times an action can be regenerated to 4. Get a response you don’t like? Too bad! Now you’ve lost an action. There’s also no warning for when actions are about to run out which immediately disrupts the flow. Calling this an “generative AI writing app” is incredibly misleading with these types of restrictions.

**Developer response:** Hi ScarletTiger, thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We understand how the current limits can feel frustrating, especially if you were used to broader access before. The free version is designed as a limited way to try Pirr, while premium access supports ongoing development and unlocks the full creative experience. We absolutley take note about the action counter. Your feedback is heard and helps us continue refining how we communicate and shape that experience.

### 2/5 — Used to be good

*2026-01-20*

I used to love this app, it was
wonderful. It was free, which separated it from so many writing apps. The interface was very user friendly and overall, it was great. But now, the app has changed. Ever since the typewriter update months ago, it has gotten worse. The memory has decreased, it will no longer write explicit scenes, and it just feels different. It directly avoids using any sort of detail, instead opting for the characters to be interrupted. If you do manage to get it to write something uninterrupted, it won’t say any words one could deem “explicit”. If you try to guide the AI, it will do what you want for one paragraph, then it goes back to its vague or avoidant style. I miss how it used to be. But now, I have to pay 13 dollars to get the same experience that I used to get for free. 13 dollars is a lot of money to pay per month. I just wish it would go back to the way that it was, or that the free level included everything that the app used to be, while premium was just new features. I can use other apps for cheaper, but I really hope that they will fix this do that I don't because as I mentioned, the app has a unique design that I love. Overall, I feel sort of tricked, because everything that I used to get for free, I didn't get for several months, and then when they fixed some issues, new ones were
introduced and I suddenly had to pay money for it. I just wish that this would go back to how it was.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for using Pirr and for sharing such a detailed review. We’re really sorry that the recent changes have made the app feel worse for you, especially after you enjoyed the earlier version. That’s not the experience we want for anyone.

Pirr is built by a small team and to keep improving and maintaining the app we’ve had to introduce a paid plan and move some of the more intensive features there, while still offering a trimmed down free version for people who choose it. We know 13 dollars/month is a significant commitment and it’s completely fair to compare it with other options.

Your feedback about memory, explicit content limits and how the app feels after the typewriter update is really valuable. We can’t promise to return to the exact old setup, but we are actively working on making Pirr feel great to use within the technical and safety constraints we have. If you’re open to it, you’re very welcome to email us at support@pirr.me with more details so we can look more closely at your experience.

### 1/5 — Great, another subscription that locks away key features

*2026-01-17, version 4.219.5*

I understand that in order to keep the lights on, there must be a steady stream of income.  It sucks that subscriptions like this are the norm now, and I hate them with a burning passion. So when I saw that such a thing was being implemented here, I was more than disappointed.

That being said, I wouldn’t even mind if the subscriptions didn’t lock away the most BASIC features.  Limited amount of actions is fine (you can get a surprising amount with what you’re given).  The amount of redos you get is pitifully low, though it’s possible that this is more personal preference on my end.  Locking away custom vibes and locations is BEYOND stupid, but it can easily be worked around by mentioning them in the intro prompt.

What I CANNOT forgive is making the max amount of characters to be just ONE.  I can’t select more than ONE character without shilling real money. Wanted to generate a story with two specific characters in mind? You’re out of luck. Unlike locations and vibes, characters need much more text to explain (personalities, appearance, etc.), so you either need to find a way to shoehorn the info into a prompt (which you’d have the copy if you want to use the character multiple times) or hope and pray the bot will just get it right or something (Also, it’s way too easy to delete character profiles. Run your finger the wrong way, and it’s gone forever). As you can tell, this was the turning point for me.

I understand needing to generate revenue, but subscriptions should not actively make the user experience more inconvenient. It’s less restrictive than other subscriptions I’ve seen, don’t get me wrong, but the locked features mentioned above make me really reconsider if I want to keep using this.
