### 4/5 — Not working - Brilliant App

*2026-06-19*

If you check the demo you’ll definitely want it. I wasn’t able to connect because App & gateway connection needs to be upgraded to protocol 4. In anxiously waiting for the update ans dev response.

### 4/5 — Clean and Impressive

*2026-04-04*

I have tried just about every app that tries to do this.  As far as I can tell, you did it better.  

I usually outright avoid subscriptions but it comes out to about 20 bucks a year, which is well worth it and hopefully supports continued development because the UX here seems far improved from what other’s are attempting.  It seems really good as a control center and management console, though I’m not sure if I would use it as an all-in-one due to other apps having a more simple side panel for chat history/sessions.  As of now using Clawpilot+Clawket to interact and TARS to monitor and manage.

Will update this review as I encounter bugs or find more to appreciate.  
Thanks for making the app.

**Developer response:** Greetings Friend,

Thank you for the kind words and encouragement.  We are going to be adding a suggestions and bugs reporting tool to our thetarsapp.com website so we can have a mechanism for improvements.  This is great feedback in regard to our Chat view/functionality.  A slide out menu is an interesting idea because agreed, the Chat view is a bit clunky as is.

Keep an eye out for some updates in the coming weeks.  Thanks for the feedback, cheers.

### 5/5 — For Real?!
