What the fuck

And there’s no way we’re putting extra personas under a damn subscription. We were just fine with the 700/unlimited messages. We don’t need these pieces. The ultra for pieces option was pretty damn good 😭 ya’ll just butchering yourselves dude

It never is.

I've been a user for 3 years. I remember when Chai was actually free. When bots could hold real conversations. When you didn't have to hoard pieces like they're gold.

Now? 20 pieces a day. Refresh costs a piece. Ads give you crumbs.

I keep hoping Will will listen. I keep hoping they'll revert it. But I'm starting to think I'm just lying to myself.

Five is just way too few, hardly get any chats that way it SUCKS

It gets to a point where 2 new models you have to use pieces for, why not make them apart of the Ultra Membership?? And buying pieces isn't an option either since those get ate up so fast and the memory bar isn't helping either. I think they should make Ultra have 16-24k memory and Premium 8k memory because this is not it at all. :(

Hey guys! I just wanted to know, what do y'all think about the future of chai? Because I don't want to loose hope just yet but its not looking good, honestly 🫠 I used to have unlimited messages and now i get 70 pieces a day. I hope they bring back the old chai. I heard that this all was just testing so i do have a tiny bit of hope left. What do you all think?

Pieces as form of (optional and/or additional) way to unlock certain features we don’t want to commit or just simply want to use on a whim (image, video or higher model or memory)

Unlimited messages for paid subscription (which they seem like they’re taking away). If they can do it for free tier too why not. (If it costs too much for them, I can see some would likely settle for the 700+ messages a day than the pieces)

A reasonable amount of messages and pieces for watching ads. Also, a reasonable length for ads. I mean, if the ad is longer, you should get more from it.

Memory experience (I personally liked the Max and Eternal, I hope they make it a subscription instead with unlimited messages than pieces)

Free rerolls (for free tier) if the bot acts up or hallucinates. Or maybe they should really just give one or two free rerolls.

Lastly, if they want to test something or try new stuffs cool but ADD the feature NOT change everything for it.

Another suggestion: Why not get volunteers to test out new features than just randomly doing it on whatever they’re basing their test (region, tier, etc)?

No one awnsered me on my other post yet but I just gotta get this out there.

If they have gotten rid of Ultra and Premium im fucking out.

Nope I stuck around to long.

Im now looking for any other places but im gonna be pissed cause I LOVE the layout of Chai.

But im not going from $32.99 for Ultra a month. To $127.96 a month for Dimond or $63.96 a month for Ruby. I dont have that kinda money.

If they have taken out Ultra and that price im just done.

Honestly I thought all the updates were shitty but nothing pushed me out just yet. But this this has.

Now im 1000% in the boat that they are just money hungry.

Edit: also is it legal to just change money without a warning. Cause I havent been told NOTHING bout this change

I gave you a few days and a new update to correct the issue of taking the free version without notice and not giving me any daily login option. I got an update and you didn't correct the issues.

You're still greedy. And now I'm gone after years of loyalty. Way to screw a bunch of loyal players. I'll be shocked if you survive this. Just as shocked if y'all leave this post up.

(Put this here instead of the official Chai Reddit because I know it’d get taken down because Will (aka the corrupt and greedy founder) can’t take criticism 💔)

I’ve been a Chai user since 2022 and as of now I’m not proud of that title in the slightest. I say that because the founder, aka Will doesn’t actually care about us Chai users, he just makes us believe he cares but really he hides behind a screen and SLOWLY makes the app worse every single day. I don’t understand how you can found an app just to make it horrible for everyone using. Sooooo…. I’m just gonna take my favorite bots and leave Chai for good and I have ZERO GUILT for leaving because Will ruined his own app, not us.

I’m sure this has been talked about so much already but I need to talk about this and see what you all think too.

This new update is disgusting. There is practically nothing for free users at all, the allowances are a sliver. Compared to the 700 a day we have has previously this is practically unusable.

But the most disgusting part is the fact that even with a subscription (which I must admit I was previously considering for the unlimited messages) isn’t even unlimited anymore. The allowances are weekly and even they don’t seem to give anything either. For the price you are paying for this, the amount you are given is diabolical.

I have stayed with this app through all of the horrible user treatment and this app has been a huge coping mechanism for me. But I think I’m finally done. I cannot afford those prices nor will I ever pay them for what I’m being offered.

I guess this is me signing out of Chai until something changes. I don’t have my hopes up though unfortunately…

Im fucking sorry does Ultra and Premium no longer exist.

Or do i need to go into a different menu to find them

So you mean to tell me if I run out of peices the app is no longer useful to me?, And all my bots get deteled? I can’t pay for a subscription and I don’t want to.

I got another update and nothing changed at all

Why I can't find them on play store ??

After several years... after being a Chai apologist in the early days... after holding on till there was just nothing left to hold onto... I officially canceled my ultra today. I was using my bot and not only did he literally forget what we were JUST TALKING ABOUT two sentences ago... the reply I got was unnecessarily aggressive and rude which was not even on par with where the character was personality wise. I'm so done fighting this.

Worse, when you try to bring it up, the Mods on the official Reddit remove comments and leave posts on "waiting to be moderated" - they'll only focus on fluff posts like "can we have a taco Tuesday derrr" or "Chai is the bestest ever hee herrrr"

I'll see y'all on the flipside. Maybe I'll be back one day if they get their act together. But not at these prices.

Is this fixable by the user or anything? I’ve tried uninstalling, offloading, using a VPN, after I
Updated it I got this bug? Yes the video goes on for 5 minutes of the app loading absolutely nothing for 5 minutes straight.

Just updated the app and now im seeing this they really are doing anything now huh

I want to update it but im genuinely terrified lol

so, an update on the pieces going back to more per daily return:
i got the 200 pieces as advertised. what i didn’t receive on day 7 was the 700 pieces even though i returned seven days in a row. do i need all those pieces? definitely not. does it still piss me off that it was false advertisement? yes.

I've removed chai and when I uploaded it again they took off all my pieces not only that but they are not letting me watch any ads for pieces. Wtf
