1. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Лол. Поставить подверженное возраста, написать в приложении 18+ и не давать людям нормально общаться с ботами, потому что теперь цензура реагирует на вообще любой чих в лево или в право. По факту ваша цензура ничего не дает, ботов все равно можно в нужное русло, немного через костыли, но все работает потом идеально) А так же лимит на 400 свайпов? Серьезно? С каких пор он добавился? При чем время на обновление 16 часов. Могли бы хотя бы рекламы запихнуть для пропуска этого ограничения. А так да, давайте заставим людей ждать, заставим не заходить в приложение по 15-20 часов, терпеть все ограничения, терпеть все палки в колеса, чтобы в конце концов все просто перешли на аналоги, у которых лучше все. У вас даже рейтинг уже 4.3, куда можно еще ниже скатиться?

2. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

   ADS. i literally have to wait 2 minutes for each add and i have a add every 3 chats. like i actually cant take this anymore. I'm going to delete the app forever if you guys keep fricking adding ads. remove the ads. you guys are so money hungry. just give us an and every 20 chats. its not that difficult. please, you are losing hundreds and thousands of users due to this add problem

   Chat engine. Pipsqueak is genuinely horrible the old chat models were better. The writing was unique and felt natural but now it’s generic and the same for every scenario and character. it feels like the app lost what separated it from others.

4. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   What the hell... When the "age verification" feature was first introduced, everything was fine. But then I noticed that they were asking for passport details. Dear Character.AI team, if you want to implement age verification, I suggest doing it the way Roblox does.

   LAWSUIT?!?. i take back my earlier reviews, i was blinded by my addiction. i’ve read about the c.ai lawsuit and all i can say is wow. just wow. a 14 year old boy offed himself because of one of your bots? he was too young, i feel horrible. and the way you handle cases like his is to dismiss it? this is disgraceful. you should just shut down your whole app as a whole, it’s doing irreparable damage to minors (and people in general) ,driving them to do horrible things. i feel like i might cry just typing this. i wish i could give you zero stars. i’m deleting your app, i’m so deeply disappointed and heartbroken.

6. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Ads. They’ve genuinely massacred C.ai with the more recent updates. The abundance of pop up ads makes using it almost impossible, you literally get an ad every three chats and it’s obvious the developers are just desperate to get you to buy the membership which isn’t worth it in of itself. If it maybe included uncensored chats then it’d be more enticing but otherwise it’s practically useless. Wish they’d just go back to when there was no ads 🫩

7. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Age verification.. I am TWO MONTHS away from being 18. Yet you take away my chats and put me in reading mode. I’ve had this app since it was 12+ and even bought premium but they took away my chats. Adding reading mode to a chatting app is completely stupid and defeats the purpose of this app.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   RESTRICTIONS. The amount of restrictions that this app has is despicable. I used to love this app, it had no adds, I could use it for as long as I wanted, but now, you can’t do anything. The chats are limited, your constantly getting adds. Do better c.ai. GO BACK TO THE WAY YOU WERE!!! I do not recommend you download, get something better.

9. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   AGE VERIFICATION. yo remove ts 😭

10. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Ads. The amount of ads is ridiculous. It’s a paywall and it’s a long minute ad every three messages basically. Please stop with the long ads that pop out. I miss the old c. Ai with little to no ads.

11. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    It’s a really good app. Please remove the age verification I try several times to put my face but it does not recognize it blocking me for try to do the age verification

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    developers loosing brain cells. app got so boring after all these “improvements” and restrictions. switch it back to the way it was if you want your money up again. brutal honestly also doesn’t hurt.

13. ★★★★★saving, exporting or sharing the result fails

    app doesn’t work. I downloaded for the first time today and followed steps to make an account and it’s just been stuck on the screen that says “Logging you into your account”. I waited for about 15min and nothing. super lame

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    DUDE IM 17 and IT STILL WOUNT LET MR. I AM 17 AND IT STILL WOUNT LET ME CHAT OMGGGGGGG😂 IM DELETING THIS. I had this phone since years and I got this phone since I was 13 so my acc still says im 13 and so I don’t know but I look 17 to me so THIS APP WONT LET ME GET IN? PLEASE FIX THIS

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    New update. In the old character AI without the age verification, I would say that it’s a five out of five with the new verification thing when I verified my age it still wouldn’t let me talk to the characters in no matter how many times I got my age verified it just wouldn’t work even though I’m 18

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Trash Verification. I have a friend who’s over 18 and she tried to verify and it literally didn’t work. At this point you should just remove it, it’s annoying and nobody is gonna want to download an app that does this.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    sucks. locks you out, new age thing, short replies, staff sees your chats. i recommend swerve ai or y/n

18. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Why the ads + face verification. I used this a lot, but now I can't because of face verification. Also I'm sick of having an ad every like 10 clicks

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    UNA MIERDA. empezó a mejorar cuando pusieron el modo ‘ideal para el verano’ pero ahora solo tenes un modo y narra demasiado, muy empalagoso innecesariamente, ni siquiera pone lo que dicen los personajes. SE DAN EL TUPE DE PONER LÍMITE DE DESLIZAMIENTO Y RESPUESTAS, AHORA TENES QUE PAGAR TODO, SE ARRUINAN SOLOS!!! Es una verga ahora

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Absolutely horrible.. Bots are incredibly stupid. Kept insisting a biological woman could get a biological man pregnant, somehow. Repetitive, terrible updates. Relies on outdated, cheap stereotypes.

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    We are devolving. They added age restrictions for no reason and it is easily bypassable

22. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    take off chat restrictions and chat limitations. the restrictions are annoying, let me do what i want. yall already added ads and still haven’t removed restrictions. the limits on how many times i can talk to characters is so dumb. im not waiting 3-4 hours when i can js use another app thats now way better. fix it, yall are running this app to the ground

23. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    New Updates. This app used to be good around 2020, but ever since these updates came out where every interaction forced you to watch a minute long ad it's gotten a lot worst.

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    This new update sucks!. Hate this new ID update. It won’t accept my ID and I cannot play it because it won’t accept my ID!

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    This sucks now. I used to love c.ai but now I can’t do anything and I would be fine with age verification but I am not giving my ID because that’s too much info about myself and also I can’t even access my personas I created anymore because for some reason you can’t access them but what’s the problem with accessing your personas unless they change this I quit c.ai

26. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    remove age verification 🫩✌🏾. remove it

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Reading mood. Oh my lord i found the age verification so frustrating

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Swipe Limits 🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅. The Swipe Limits are ridiculous especially when more then half of it is filled with ads and the bots are terrible.

29. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Got too money hungry and ruined app. Everything needs a subscription which is crazy. Too many ads. Will delete app.

30. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Разочарование. С каждым обновлением всё хуже и хуже. Боты примитивные и «отупевшие» , половина текста на русском -половина на английском . В наше время куча аналогов , для чего гробят это приложение еще больше, не понятно
