However, my only problem is the gems. This app has a feature where every chat generated takes a minimum of 3 gems. They also have a feature where you can watch ads for a 100 gems and also daily gems. I’ve been experiencing problems with the ads. It always says that ‘something is blocking ads’. I’ve tried all the methods listed, but nothing has worked. I’ve owned this app for months now yet the ads have only worked once. I am still able to acquire daily gems, but that just means I’ll spend less time on the app. Hope yall can fix this issue. Thanks ### 4/5 — Great but… *2026-08-28, version 1.29.0* This app is amazing! It has such a wide variety of characters to talk to (including lgbtqia+ bots). The only complaint I have is that it costs gems to talk to the bots (you get 25 daily so that’s a plus) ### 3/5 — Update *2026-08-28, version 1.29.0* I’m pretty sure they updated the app, I don’t really like it since I can’t find my old bots. ### 5/5 — Super funn *2026-08-28, version 1.29.0* Easy to have sec and playyy ### 5/5 — Peak *2026-08-28, version 1.29.0* Just peak ### 3/5 — Review *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* It’s okay, much better than Cai because you can actually type. I will say it does need work on, sometimes I watch an add for gems and not get them, or just really slow loading and some chats it can randomly reset it’s memory like it’s the start of the story? But other than those three things it’s a good app and would recommend ### 3/5 — Ehh *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* Ehh it’s good and all but sometimes won’t switch povs to Sid characters they changed it to where you have a limit to free messages? Overall it’s ok I guess I think imma stick with poly ### 4/5 — good *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* it’s a good app but i think the gems are unnecessary and just a hassle ### 5/5 — Better alternative *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* Honestly it’s a better alternative to any other AI app as the conversations are genuinely highly advanced. What I mean is that it’s using great vocabulary instead of simple boring words other apps like c.ai or chai use. It’s easily accessible still with the gem barrier as you can watch 3 adds every 20 mins for 300 gems. Replies only cost 3. You don’t get censored for literally anything and it’s good if you’re a role-play type of person as other apps like c.ai used to censor me if I tried to talk about anything like a fight. Great app, love it!! Also bot customisation is fantastic, you get 5,000 words for a greeting and that’s AMAZING!!! <3 ### 5/5 — Top ai chat *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* Developer,are you the God? ### 4/5 — I love this app but *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* I absolutely love this app it's way better the cai but the bots keep thinking the title of the chat is a character even though I tell it multiple times it's the title and some bots talk for me and it really annoys me but other than that I love this app🥰🥰 ### 4/5 — It's a great app but *2026-08-26, version 1.29.0* It's so good, but there is one problem: when you chat and try to do the actions, it doesn't do this ** and I really hope you can fix that. ### 4/5 — It's good! *2026-08-26, version 1.29.0* So far I really like it! But there is a bug when I watch ads for gems but I don't get any. Also some chats are kinda mid. This is my dads name and I'm not sure if I should change it so plz don't mind if your reading reviews! There is also some lags and I can’t use it because it can’t load please fix it but my wi-fi is good ### 5/5 — Loving this app so far! 🩷 *2026-08-26, version 1.29.0* (UPDATE: Aug 26, I’m literally so addicted to this app. But remember to take breaks from writing then if you’re hella bored, this is an amazing app to chat with your bots :) I’ve been using this app for the past few days or weeks that I’ve forgotten to make a review on it, lol. But this has to be the best AI chatting platform I’ve used so far. The bots are excellent at recalling our past chats (sometimes, but still quite good at it), creating a group chat for all your favorite characters, offering free background choices that you earned while you chat, and more. I genuinely love and enjoy this game that suggesting some improvements will be lovely, such as adding more background options, a light mode or color themes instead of just dark mode, adding another character you forgot to add in a group chat that’s already active, and for the character information tab, instead of limiting the description to just 500 letters, perhaps increasing the limit to 200 or more letters limit. Once again, it’s the best app I’ve used so far. Keep up the great work! :) I’ll might update this review soon in case this is seen. (UPDATE: Things are going spectacular! For new users I totally recommend this app if you want your bot to remember past memories, you can even pin a specific chat you want it to remember. Also for the devs, can you add a delete feature that your able to remove a character off a group chat or add a new one? Thx!) ### 5/5 — Worth it! *2026-08-26, version 1.29.0* Very good app! You listen too three ads for 300 gems which is pretty much one or two hours of chatting which I think is very reasonable. The ai recognizes popular fandoms so you don’t have to explain everything its very practical. Also, when you edit a chat from the bot, it actually makes the rest of the story accurately considering the edit! I love that you can pin messages and even put memory so the bot doesn’t forget. Also another part I really like is the discord. The vibe is great and on top of that, they actually listen to our bug reports! Honestly, if you’re trying to find a good ai chatting app, this is probably the best one out there right now! The bots aren’t too flirty if you don’t want them too, and the ai app recognizes when you only platonic relationship with the bot. Really happy. Keep up the work! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Updates *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* Hey, when y’all make updates, can y’all make sure that it doesn’t stop the whole app? Cause the servers are slow, it won’t rewind and it won’t make chats cause it’s going so low to respond and it’s the slowness and non-responsive servers that are very annoying. ### 1/5 — Server Hiccup *2026-08-27, version 1.29.0* Server Hiccup being constantly is annoying ### 1/5 — Laggy and delayed *2026-08-26, version 1.29.0* I tried to use this because I was bored and the delay in the app and chats make it hard to play. ### 1/5 — App sucks after 10 minutes *2026-08-25, version 1.29.0* After about ten minutes, the chats start repeating and forgetting even if memories are pin. If you don’t follow the plots you can’t see it goes straight to fight drama mode. ### 1/5 — Some of the bots don’t listen to your requests even when u clearly tell it. *2026-08-24, version 1.29.0* Not good ### 1/5 — BAD *2026-08-24, version 1.29.0* bad memory and doesn’t listen to details!!! ### 1/5 — Not worth it *2026-08-22, version 1.29.0* I played this app for like maybe three hours Ish and it’s already asking me for money to continue talking to their bots, not worth it… do not recommend… honestly I think PolyBuzz is better… it at least gives you an option to watch an ad to keep playing, they just ask for gems or whatever… ### 1/5 — Not the best *2026-08-21, version 1.28.0* Kinda bad icl, some characters don’t leave you alone no matter how many times you tell it to, say if you want a conversation with a different character the same one will some how turn up n be weird ### 1/5 — Why? *2026-08-17, version 1.28.0* I liked the app at first, good format, I could edit I could swipe I had personas…. But then I found out the character definition limit is 6000 letters…. WHY?! As much as I hate character AI’s filtration right now it’s so much better than swerve I can’t even put my characters whole lore in that!!!!! Useless! ### 1/5 — Annoying *2026-08-16, version 1.28.0* The bot variety is decent but a major flaw that ruins the entire app for me is the it picks and chooses what it listens to. If you even attempt to change the plot it reverts right back to the beginning and if you put a time skip it act like it was yesterday. Stupid bots that understand nothing. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best AI ever *2026-08-30, version 1.29.0* Honestly ever if it have bugs sometime (which isn’t often) I love it.
