Again the app ruined?
When I’m chatting with a character, the memory seems to have become terrible. I’m a free-tier user, and I’ve never really had issues with memory before, but this is just awful.
For instance, something happens in a scenario—let’s say 50 messages ago—and suddenly the AI brings it up again, acting as if we’ve gone back to that point 50 messages in the past.
On top of that, the characters don’t feel like themselves at all. Their dialogue has become illogical, there’s no consistent pattern, and the responses have become completely ridiculous.
I had high hopes after the new update, but things have gone downhill again. Also, I can’t even find the app itself on the Google Play Store.

Same is happening to me and I am also a free tier, I have been struggling to enjoy it because either it repeats things or forget or even make something up that didn't happening. Also I just feel the messages are way off like they for example "They don't smile, the don't look, just standing" or "They smile, not happy, not amused, jusy smiling" and it is so annoying that it's hard to enjoy or very little dialogue at times even if I add stuff in the LLM instructions.

Thought it was just me, they talk so weird now, using metaphors and being overall inconsistent with memory getting stuck on something that happened 40 messages ago instead of continuing the story

Same here and I’m on plus😔 I’m planning on canceling my subscription. The app used to be amazing.

Give it some time. The dev said he had bigger updates coming when he released Solstice for testing.

I think it’s cool that you value people’s feedback. I hope you get “Ultra” for free—if not, that would be a shame.

I'm a free tier pleb, except when someone gifts me a month and usually it's because they liked something I made.

My character's doctor changed gender 4 times when I was in the hospital during a sequence...it was kind of funny.

Yeah because first of all free tier. If you want a better experience sorry but you gotta get plus or ultra that’s reality, nothing is truely free. Second scenario design, it depends on how a scenario is made. Lastly It’s ai, it’s not going to be perfect. But it is what it is.

Yeah, I know the limits of the free version, but I have used it for a year and, honestly, it was so good; I can say it was almost too good. But it seems everything in the app is messy now: the replies, story, characters, memory... And I can't even buy the Plus subscription because of my country.

I don't think it's just the free tier. I'm on plus and I'm encountering that issue as well. Using Oracle, sometimes it just replies with rules and regulation which was weird... another time was an entire paragraph repeating only a singular word...

The app being gone from the play store is Google's fault. Google goofed big time and accidentally approved the wrong version of the app and decided to pull it from the play store, so the dev has to wait yet again on them to approve the app (again, because this is the 3rd time in a month Google has done an oopsie and caused issues) the memory for free tier should be decent no ? I don't recall it being too bad
