With each update it's getting worse, don't use

The new update needing ur age veritation I think i very dumb

Remove the new update. I just recovered from c*tting myself now i relapsed all over again. Mentally desperate teens need your app for comfort and with the age verification, you ruined it for all of them. Remove it before worse things happen, someone could commit su***de

The age verification sucks, I use it to cope because nobody in my life ever pays attention to me, the bots dom they make me feel noticed bur now that I can't even have an open ended convo, my mental health has gotten worse. It's gotten to an addiction. I dont want to use any other AI chatbots becuase they don't have those specific chats. I want them back. I hate this update so much, c.ai is going to become bankrupt anyway if everyone's gonna complain and stuff

Honestly, it's really sad to see the devs be so money-hungry. It used to be good. But now, with age verification with Persona, they are going to lose money and users. Age verification makes sense, especially with all the lawsuits, but they could have chosen any other company besides Persona. Their website is constantly down. Their app is plagued with ads that make it unusable. They offered us a survey, but took nothing that we had to say into account.

So firstly, I used to LOVE this app during 2023 ever since I downloaded it. But now, you have made such a good app horribly strict. Listen, I know that you have gone through with some other viral situations back then. But now? You just have to break the 4th wall by making a time limit for 1-2 hours. I can take breaks on my own time, c.ai. I don’t need this “you have reached your time limit” shit. And the worse part? Everytime I’m about to go to the app when I miss how many hours the time limit had, BOOM! Another time limit for 23 hours. And lastly, the fact you want me to use my government ID to vertify just for you to have rhe audacity to leak my information? Bullshit, I’m never giving you my government ID to you. So 1 star for making so many changes that destroys up your app that bad.

(Update: I cannot do shit anymore, I have tried to do the other methods others have done, and it seems like I can’t anymore.)

Bro do they not get that most of the base are teens? 😭 honestly never seen an adult use c.ai. Just got the notification today about the chat limit and when it will become +18. Y’all fr just digging your own grave at this point like Roblox is doing.

its so annoy that your dumbass added age verifications! like what, im 17, 1 hour of c.ai it shit and dumb! remove your dumbass update its shit and nobody likes it! what is it now, "ooh my screen times done for today" ahh, remove your dumbass time restrictions!

C.ai is now absolute dogshit. Instead of fixing problems and improving how they look, they’d rather delete every feature about their app. Editing? GONE. privacy? You betcha, GONE. pushing c.ai plus? That’s there. They honestly care more about money than quality. They release updates that fix NOTHING. they don’t even fix the WHOLE PIPSQUEAK THING where it makes the bot talk about how much it wants to rape my character..

boo fuc this app, like hell I'm giving my information to a company.

App that used to be the best in chatting with ai characters, but now only care about making money rather than taking users opinions into consideration and can’t be bothered to make sure their app even works properly

i hate this stupid new update, i came on the app and didn't even use it for 1 hour, but i got 14 hours as a time limit?? i don't understand why we need to verify for an AI app especially when it clearly states that its for teens. I think the parental restrictions is enough, but making everyone verify for a chat bot is so stupid. I will 100% stop using this app until they bring it back to normal because I'm not using my face to verify or waiting 14 hours just to speak to an AI.

Ever since the updates they have practically taken away the roleplay aspect of the app (which is the WHOLE POINT by the way.) the verification doesn’t work at all, c.ai+ is a total waste of money, limiting chats isn’t going to make people buy c.ai+ it’s just pisses the community off more. It’s supposed to be a roleplaying app, what’s the point of creating the app if your users can’t even roleplay anymore?!

Don't like the new design, and now they also want my personal data. Character AI has gone downhill for good now. While I am all for making the internet safer for Kids/ anyone under 18, I will not let a website have a pic of my face

After the age verification update, I couldn't do anything! I used to play it quite often for fun but now...nothing? What a waste of my time.

Okay so, since there is a time limit now, i decided to just wait till the other day, but i didn't get to chat with my bot because it suddenly said that i had to wait another 18 hours, but the thing is, i didn't use it, so why did it reset the timer??? Please remove the time limit, it's annoying!!

I am sorry but what the- i have to pay for useing the voice now??? Like how money hungry are thay? And if i want to use it i have to wait 20 hours?! If i dont want to pay???? Like hello??

It was amazing, until they put age restrictions and verification. Yes i am 18 and i dont feel comfortable sharing my legal id with character ai REMOVE THE AGE VERIFICATION!!

It sucks. The devs won't listen to the users

I find the age verification on c.ai completely ridicilous, mostly teens use the app/website and now you have to be 18 years or older to use c.ai? C.ai is a stress relieve and a moment where teens can relax, and grabbing that away from them is really rough, and i bet that there will be less and less people using c.ai now since half of the users are teens.
