Switch Personas

Switch Personas isn't one AI—it's seven personalities that share one memory of you. Rant to Ragebolt (sharp tongue, soft heart), get comforted by Sunny, talk life with law-and-humanities mentor Professor Doe, or banter with a coding-savvy cutie. Whoever you switch to, they remember what you told the others. That's Switch Personas. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • Memory Shards: your experiences, tastes and what you care about settle into "shards" shared across every character. No re-introducing yourself—they get to know you. • Custom Characters: not into the presets? Build your own AI—persona, greeting, avatar—rename and edit anytime. • Immersive: frosted-glass bubbles, custom chat backgrounds and avatars, dark mode, and a human-like typing rhythm. PRO Subscribe to unlock more capable AI models, unlimited daily chats, and multi-device memory sync. - Auto-renewable subscription (monthly/yearly). Your Apple ID is charged on confirmation. It renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. - Also available: a one-time "Unlock Custom Characters" purchase (not a subscription—pay once, yours forever). Privacy Policy: https://npyprivacy.w4xiaoyao.space Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Your Memory Shards are stored only on your device.
