User reviews
I'm fine with the friend, family and coworker messaging, but not great on the AIs. Some of these AIs are just random, which is fine, some of them don't work great sometimes, like some of the Dungeon Masters or adventure chats getting messed up after you tell them what you want to go by and then tell them something else, they rant and contemplate for 3 paragraphs. Anyway, could this app gain the possibility to delete any previous info on past conversations? This is for if they need a fresh mem.

Oliver Forristall, 2025-02-03When taking calls, connection won't end; complete disruption of functionality (alarms won't sound or vibrate, notifications are also silenced, volume for other media won't play, etc.) Phone/app shows that call has ended but won't disconnect. Have to manually force stop app after ending a call. Beyond annoying.
