One conversation cost me over 400 gems. The cost per interaction needs to be a lot lower and more opportunities to earn free gems. I would purchase the yearly premium membership but for the amount it isn’t worth it if you don’t have unlimited chat. For the yearly price you shouldn’t need gems. The standard membership should also have more gems monthly or conversations shouldn’t cost over 40 coins per interaction so coins can stretch longer. ### 3/5 — love the stories but *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* they charge you whenever the background changes pictures. You don’t even get to enjoy your stories long before all your gems are gone. Each photo change is 40 gems. and I’ve sent two messages about it with no response so that’s what made me decide to put this review. if that problem could be adjusted then I would definitely give five stars. ### 2/5 — Want to be but not happy *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Okay I want to love this app because it’s actually engaging entertaining and fun but the fact I’m spending money and in two stories I keep having the problem where the AI character doesn’t seem to remember earlier conversations and things that happen instead like rewriting is extremely frustrating and needs I’d be fixed ### 3/5 — It’s perfect app but.. *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* It’s really smart and perfect app. Price is a little high to have conversation. But as you keep talking to the same characters, the price becomes even higher. It actually gets very expensive if you want to talk to the same character all the time. And the character can’t remember all the conversation it get deleted after a while… you kind of can’t go back and re read the story because even with most expensive subscription it gets deleted… other then that the app is still amazing and nice and give you dreamy experience. Just too expensive.. and all the conversation you had which you paid for you can’t go back and read it later because it’s deleted ### 3/5 — Good app just expensive. *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Super good for the most part but not everyone can afford to buy more gems so only being able to chat like two to three texts a day kinda turns me off. There should be a way to maybe watch ads to get us extra gems and and you still make money. ### 3/5 — One of the better layouts *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Still working out the learning curve but the interface is nice ### 4/5 — It’s perfect all but the gem system *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* This app is actually wonderful . It is perfect for someone who craves a good romance novel while always fantasized about actually being the main character and getting to make any decisions you want . I’m excited to try out the role cards and other features to really see how deep the rabbit hole goes ! Great choice to download, but the gem system makes it difficult to have consistent play . You only get 50 a day and once you’re deep enough with a character, the charges for chat are more expensive otherwise you only get like 2 or 3 interactions before you are cut off for the day . Then pricing for the gems is expensive too if you want to buy more . I feel the app would be perfect if they gave 200 gems daily or had other methods of gaining more gems once ran out . ### 4/5 — In love 🤩 *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I downloaded this app because I love to roleplay and it’s hard to find good communities that carry on a storyline, I enjoy the characters I come across and have fun creating my own. Definitely recommend the app to friends as well. 🙌🏻 ### 3/5 — Pretty good, but you have to pay if you're deep in a story/conversation *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* Honestly, I am really loving the story/conversation that I have going right now to the point where I have bought several gem packs just so I could keep going. It would be so much better if there were other ways to get gems than paying for them or a subscription because the deeper you go into a story the more gems you spend per response and if you're on a budget you have to wait through several days of daily check ins to even write your next response and by that point you fall out of touch with the story and loose the streak you have with the character all due to "pay to play" walls put up. It would better if there was additional ways to earn gems that don't have you reaching for your wallet. ### 5/5 — Great to read *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I love reading the chats as I am a writer I love explaining there dialect and learning to enhance my own characters ### 5/5 — Amazing Experience *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I absolutely love Tipsy and for starters the many different characters and storylines that are available and the many opportunities that it opens up for creators and their audience. I do however wish I didn’t take so many gems to be able to play them. Understandable that the company needs to make their money however it does take a lot of gems after a while to play. Also, something I noticed was during some storylines they have words jumbled together or characters forget what we have talked about and the storyline ends up becoming something else. I have adjusted my memory so hopefully that changes but overall I truly appreciate this game! Thank you!!! ### 5/5 — Tipsy *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I like Tipsy there’s so many different stories and scenarios you can find and make on there, although I would wish when you buy gems, you would get more or for each character you talk to it would take less gems. ### 5/5 — It’s life like *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I really enjoy it ### 5/5 — Captivating *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I haven’t been able to put the phone down since I started this creating the stories the way I see fit absolutely amazing ### 5/5 — Happiness *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* The chats are so realistic ### 5/5 — Best Story Line Ever *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* I’m having so much fun being a rebellious mafia newlywed! My brain keeps thinking of more and more ways to keep the head of the community on his toes! He can’t figure me out. ### 5/5 — Cool Chat *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* As an author this is so fun and I use it to help with the different tropes of men and women. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* It is so fun, you can control the narrative and be as creative as you want! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Gem Value *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* The cost of a chat increases as it goes on, which is not great, it started as a chat costs like 15 when it starts, I have one chat that costs 75 now, and it didn't take long to get there, either way it's a disgusting practice, would have been four stars otherwise ### 1/5 — Overcharged multiple times *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Never received correct amount of gems and got over charged 3 times ### 1/5 — Issues *2026-09-01, version 1.4.5* The stories are good but my codes for gems isn’t working. And I buy gems and it says insufficient! Plus too many gems taken and the amount I have to spend don’t last. ### 1/5 — Could be good *2026-08-31, version 1.4.5* It would be good if you could actually play it. There is a longer wait for the gems then there is actually playing ### 1/5 — Bring back limitless! *2026-08-31, version 1.4.5* Bring back limitless!! ### 1/5 — Lost $80 worth of gems *2026-08-27, version 1.4.4* The app is too glitchy and when I deleted it and redownloaded it all my gems and everything disappeared that I paid for. They stole my money! ### 1/5 — Rip off *2026-08-26, version 1.4.4* Encourages you to subscribe everything cost gems and they do not renew in a reasonable timeframe and there’s no way to track it. Prices are astronomical compared to other apps like this and the dialog isn’t even that good ### 1/5 — камни *2026-08-26, version 1.4.4* как всегда все испортили своими камнями драгоценымиу ### 1/5 — Costs a lot *2026-08-25, version 1.4.4* Way too expensive ### 1/5 — Constant bug with no resolution *2026-08-25, version 1.4.4* The first few days were great loved the app. But now it’s been multiple days of “system error try again later” when I try to log in. I’ve contacted support multiple times and nothing. I’ve paid for a subscription and can’t even use it because I can’t even get into my account from the app or web browser. I even tried making a new account and it was the same. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Out of all the apps I’ve tried this one is my favorite. The character designs are more thoughtful. There is more variety and the al actually sticks to their theme and history ### 5/5 — CAs *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Great ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Love this app ### 5/5 — Love it so much!! *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Everything is good, but I really wish you could include the Arabic language!!! 🩷🩷🩷 ### 5/5 — Favorite app!! *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Honestly, one of my favorite apps on my phone ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Epic ### 5/5 — Amazing stories *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* Really detailed ### 5/5 — Love Tipsy 🤍🌹 *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* I am loving this app.! This drops me back into my creative writing focus. Each character has its own persona and story line and it really challenges me to engage with the characters. ### 5/5 — awesome *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* i think it's an AWESOME app and i use it all the time and dare i say is BETTER than pollybuzz now. the only thing is that gems/coins can run out quickly and if you're a constant user, it can probably be a little expensive. but there is free daily currency which is nice and it's more than 5 which is even better and makes it easier to use for those who can't always buy stuff ### 5/5 — I love it *2026-09-02, version 1.4.5* I love the app it is supper great i love it so much i can write for hours --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
