# Openchat vs AI Chat 4.0

Openchat and AI Chat 4.0 both sit at 4.7 stars, but that hides the real split: 81% of Openchat's written reviews are positive against 36% of AI Chat 4.0's. AI Chat 4.0's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, rating, ratings volume and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Openchat sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days and AI Chat 4.0 sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

- 🐛 Do not purchase this app!
- 🐛 Not worth it!

- 🐛 Disappointed

**Reported bugs**

- Takes a long time to load if it can even answer. Waste of time and money.
- The app is really slow and it always answers to where you have to scroll up to start. Also, there is no audio, which is disappointing. And whenever you ask a question, you always have to scroll up on an iPhone 12 to see the box where you type. It's just a little thing, but it's annoying. I was hoping for better and hopefully in time this will be better. Thank you.
- I have only had this version for 5 minutes and it has already asked me for feedback. I just want to try it for three days but see that I am 'subscribed.' So how go I cancel should this version not work out. And, if it is working, how do I find the rules for use? Thank you

**Requested features**

- Could use some personal connection . As they do once they learn your personality .
- Finding a sales job
- Pero es de pago 🫨😬🫤
