Friend AI
Read full descriptionHide full description
Meet your AI friend: a fully animated 3D anime character who listens, talks back in a natural voice and reacts to everything you say. Speak or type, in any of 29 languages. Tell them about your day. Brush up on a new language. Debate beach versus mountains. Or just talk about whatever's on your mind. Friend AI isn't another assistant that answers in lists. It's someone to talk to, and they remember what you've been chatting about. TALK OUT LOUD Tap the mic and speak naturally. Your friend answers out loud, with lips that move with every word. Prefer typing? The text chat works just as well. 29 LANGUAGES Chat in English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Hindi and 22 more, each with a native-sounding voice. Great for language practice, or for a relaxed chat in your own language. EMOTIONS AND BODY LANGUAGE Your friend shows how they feel: happy, excited, surprised, thoughtful, sad, even a little annoyed. They laugh, shrug, get shy when you compliment them, and break into a dance when there's something to celebrate, or when you ask nicely. CHOOSE YOUR CHARACTER Hana, Elena, Sarah, Viper, James and more: a cast of anime-style girls and guys, each with their own look. Switch whenever you like. PICK THEIR PERSONALITY Energetic Friend, Grumpy Know-It-All, Logical Robot or Zany Comedian. Change the personality and the same character feels like someone completely new. FREE EVERY DAY Chat for free with 5 turns every day (a turn is one message and its reply), and earn extra turns by watching a short video. Want to talk more? Lite, Plus and Pro subscriptions give you many more turns each day, and Pro unlocks every character. Turn packs are available too, and turns from packs never expire. Your new friend is waiting. Download Friend AI and say hi. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your store account when you confirm the purchase. You can manage your subscription or turn off auto-renew at any time in your account settings.
