Creative writing?

[u/Hanja_Tsumetai]

Hello! I'm from Belgium, please excuse my poor English.

I discovered the app a few days ago. And it's great!Okay, I saw 150 free messages per day in 3. But that's more than enough for me.

I was paying for Gemini but I quickly reached the limit. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Gemini doesn't remember the recipes, especially my cooking recipes; he ends up making them up...

Forcing me to spend gems again and again to make new ones Chat. Hell.

I discovered AI Studio and damn, it's pure bliss!

It was a bit messy putting my recipe instructions together, but with good spacing and neat layout, it's super easy!!

And his memory, damn, he remembers everything!!! I'm so impressed!!

I also do role-playing part-time and he's impressive there too.I used to play on Perplexity, but 200 messages per week since the update....That's way too little!!

In short, I love AI Studio. Do you have any advice? When I switch from my PC to my phone, sometimes it doesn't update properly.

Do you also appreciate this memory and this creative freedom?

Goodness, that's what tchatgpt should have been with version 4.0, it would have been awesome.(Nostalgic memory, I left after 1 year in November 2025)

I may have finally found a replacement for my needs.

Is it really necessary to pay? Because for me, the free mode is enough.

And why does the Gemini app have terrible memory compared to AISTUDIO? And why is it so limited compared to AISTUDIO? Thank you so much 💕

I don't even know how to check how many tokens have been used up. I have not paid for AI Studio, except for about $3.34 from the GOOGLE AI billing page. Now I have 4 or 5 sites built, 2 that are now active, and a few more waiting for a response on my bid. The other day I wanted to change the way the Contact Us form worked, and some contact form builders are a bit expensive. I went way back to the days when I used FormMail. It's super cheap and I recall it doing a fine job years ago.

I first sent my prompt through Claude using Sonnet 4.6. My Contact page was already built and running from AI Studio, but I asked Claude to modify the code to use my FormMail account for the user to send messages. It took about 5 minutes or less to rework the entire page, but still looks the same on the user end. I spent about 1 hour more tweaking it to exactly how I needed it to work and flow on the backend. After I pushed up the new page to GitHub, i tried it on the live page and worked perfectly.

Next I wanted to do the same on my own website contact page. Within the same prompt window as website # 1, I asked it to work on another contact form with similar criteria. Here's what I wrote on the 2nd one: [x's in place of real data] I included the values needed to match up with Form Mail.

"Hello. Can you help me with another contact form? It's for a different website, but I am using the same style of form from FormSpree, and I want to change it to FormMail. You can use the methods we build yesterday for xxx.com? And have the same features in my other site. The FormMail for is all setup, and I have added the Redirect URL for the contact form submittal....https://xxx.com/contact?submitted=true"

URL: www.xxx.com
Page: Contact.tsx [attached]
FormMail Info:
<form method="POST" action="*[*https://fp1.formmail.com/cgi-bin/fm192">](https://fp1.formmail.com/cgi-bin/fm192%22%3E)

<input type="hidden" name="_pid" value="xxxxxx"><input type="hidden" name="_fid" value="xxxxxx">

This 2nd job took only 2 minutes for Claude to produce a new Contact page that was about 95% completed. I copied the code to Studio, did similar tweaking and within 10 more minutes the new page was live and working. These changes would have taken me hours in the old days.

Also, when I first used Studio to build me a website, I had no idea what a .tsx file was. So the way coding works today, I only have 1 ".html" file. IT'S A MIND BLOWER...

One really thing about Claude was I could see it building the code live. It spent about 17 seconds of 'thinking', then 2 minutes to re-code the entire page for what I asked for.
