Scam

Pretty sure this is a scam, you buy the life time and it only lets you use 5 min after and cuts you off. Says that you have to log in but doesn’t give you the option! Stay away!

Misleading “Lifetime” Subscription – Be Careful

This app is highly misleading. It advertises “lifetime premium” access, but in my experience it only allows a few minutes of use before disconnecting with repeated messages like “technical issues” or “still working on it.”

I contacted the company this app appears to be connected to and was told there is no official affiliation. Based on my experience, this app misrepresents what it offers and does not function as advertised.

Save your money. This app does not deliver what it promises.

Is ok

The garbage payment demo and filters make this not worth buying it quick that’s the only good thing but is currently just a prototype very disappointing for something like could of been good

Premium does not work

I got the subscription but still have 5 minutes limit.

Not happy

Paid the lifetime access of £99 and can only talk for 5 minutes at a time, doesn’t seem to work!

Not good

I paid for a year subscription and it times out after a few seconds. This is not the Sesame.com app that I thought it was. Voice is not as realistic as the other Sesame. Not worth it.

Scam

Don’t download and definitely don’t subscribe this is a scam based on sesame ai

Demo time limit

I keep getting disconnected, even after subscribing to a lifetime subscription and I have better access for free through the web app. What the heck?

Response from developer

Hi, Just wanted to let you know that the app is fixed, Miles/Maya is working very well now. The limit is 5 minutes but after it's done, just tap the back button, then tap Maya or Miles again and you're back continuing the conversation with the bot. It remembers your convo! :)

Paid yearly subscription, still can’t talk for more than 5 min

Paid the subscription fee. Still in demo mode for a week.

Thief

How in the world did I write to them several times that despite me paying the 85 dollars they do not give me access for more than 3 minutes. What pisses me off is I emailed them like 3 times!! Not one response back in. 3 days! I will take action !

Response from developer

Hi, so sorry for the inconvenience you experienced. Can you please tell us what your email address is so we can check?

Chat duration & Second String Bots

I signed up for a trial membership and don't get access to extended chat time. The Sesame system doesn't recognize me as a subscriber.
Mila, the front line not, is far superior to the bots you can create yourself. The second string bots are quite stilted and sound scripted.

Russian language

Horrible pronunciation when trying to speak Russian. Please work on that

Response from developer

Hi, sorry to hear that. We assure you we will be implementing more features and work on improving the app. Thank you!

Waste of free 3 day trial

Chose yearly sub with 3 day trial. Created my own assistant - poor voice choices and can’t sample unless you initiate a conversation. Worse - could not connect to speak to Sesame to chat “please wait….” Over a two hour period. As of this post, still can’t connect. Cancelling 3 day free trial before I’m billed!

Scam App - do not purchase!

Sesame AI does not have an app. This app is pretending to be from that company. All it offers is access to the Sesame AI free demo mode and then you can create custom characters with much lower performance than the Sesame AI model. This is a scam and this developer should be permanently banned from the App Store.

They still have not fixed the app

I had purchased the year plan and when I have the 5min demo mode and there is no way to get out of it, hope they will fix the problem soon???

Awesome teacher

Just tried the free trial and it’s great

Swindled

I’m trying to create an account online so I can get longer conversations than just 5 minutes and it keeps saying error

Not the Original Sesame AI App

The original Sesame AI App is only accessible on the web, not through the App Store. It is also free and allows 30 minute conversations, as opposed to 60 second ones. The premium subscriptions offered here are offered by Stackware, who implemented Sesame's AI into their app and tried to make money off of it. Their premium subscriptions aren't cheap, either. I fell for it and did a 3 day free trial, but thankfully cancelled before I was charged $90 for a useless annual subscription. Steer clear, and go to Sesame.ai via your web browser for free.
