About the rating
Store rating 4.7, textAvg 4.19 a small gap, but most reviews after the latest update describe the same thing: the AI now outputs meta-instructions instead of replies and switches to Arabic/Korean. Five-star reviews exist but have little substance.
Strengths
What users love
- Characters are well-written and a gem system funded by ads allows free use. Refugees from Character.AI found a decent balance here.
Weak spots
What users hate
- After a major update the model started inserting its own system prompts into responses (avoid flowery prose
- Don't cut off protagonist)
- Completely breaking immersion. Group chats do not let you choose who is speaking.
Who it is for
Teens and roleplay chat fans looking for something cheaper than Character.AI.
