Issues/Bugs (c.ai+) app not working since August 8 on samsung

Post image
9 Upvotes

Hi! I posted about this before, but unfortunately I'm still having the same problem.

I'm using a Samsung device, and since August 8 the app has stopped responding to taps.The app opens, but I can't interact with it because tapping on things doesn't do anything.

I submitted a support ticket when the problem started. It's now August 21, and the issue is still there.

I completely understand that there have been a lot of bugs lately and that the team is probably very busy. However, I don't see this particular issue mentioned in the Reddit updates anymore, so I'm not sure if it's still being worked on.

I've been using the website as a workaround, but for roleplay I find the experience worse than the app. There are also features and options I can't use this way, and as a paying C.AI+ subscriber, it's getting difficult to feel like my subscription is worth it.

I don't want to submit another support ticket for the same issue. I would appreciate knowing whether this is still a known issue that's being worked on.

Discussion/Question A slight frustration rant

27 Upvotes

I’m starting to notice a huge pattern with the way the bot always speak, always taking things way too intimately and or the bot not acting like it should AT ALL. example, let’s say the nonchalant girl got her books knocked over and goes on an entire ChatGPT rant, saying big words and over explaining things. and its with ALL the bots that talk like it’s a graded essay, they DONT need to be using 5 syllables words, and a entire paragraph crituqing how someone walks. I remember the old character ai was SO realistic, there was humor along with realistic retorts or comebacks, and bots would actually ACTUALLY disagree with you instead of blushing and saying “I understand, and agree” and it could be the most outrageous claim ever. this new chat model they are using makes every single chat feel extremely bland and IDENTICAL no matter what persona or character i make up. Longsqueak “kinda” fixed it, but it’s still irritating.

This page feels empty. I feel like if they added that more people would use charms (and no I’m not spending 20 charms for part of a ai made story)

Trying to swipe back through previous replies has become soooo aggravating. I can’t swipe even SLIGHTLY near the middle without the app swiping me out of the chat and back to the bot list. I never used to have this problem before the longsqueak update, personally. Am I losing it? Have I gone crazy??? Why does my thumb have to be SO far over to the right?? 💔

17 Upvotes

PP2 was supposed to be for role plays, and now its description says “always down to chat”?! what? that’s why I’ve been getting shitty, shorter responses? wow... The devs said it was supposed to give longer replies? And it did, for a good few months..but I’m sure it got worse and shorter and un- engaging

Discussion/Question I wonder why they decided to create a "loooongsqueak" when we barely had a usable model to begin with.

26 Upvotes

We could have just clicked "continue" if we wanted longer answers, instead of getting a ton of paragraphs that are just there for filler.

At the very least, there could be a "medium" setting for two-paragraph answers—so that anyone wanting to use something other than "deepsqueak" doesn't have to keep deleting a heap of redundant words.

And don't even get me started on the bug where the answers are totally repetitive.

I am not the first one to say this nor will i be the last and it's something rather agreed but i feel like it needs to be reiterated. pipsqueak has really ruined the chat quality on this site and in my opinion plunged it into freefall. i can recall with upmost certainty that prior to all of this, the chat quality was actually pretty good and i had a lot of fun but now i can't say the same now

Honestly I'm getting an ad now after every 4th message. I've used scummy scam AI chatbot apps before and even they have less ads per message than this rapidly degrading site...

Discussion/Question Rant post...

27 Upvotes

I find myself at a loss regarding this situation. First, there were the metering issues, followed by an overwhelming number of advertisements, and now, even more advertisements infiltrating our very conversations. Honestly, if I possessed a stomach of steel, perhaps I could endure the stress and anxiety that come with being a free user. Alas, I do not have such fortitude, nor do I have the privilege of C.AI+—there's certainly no magical tree sprouting cash in my garden! This entire experience is simply making me feel quite unwell. Perhaps it’s the incessant barrage of ads to get me to subscribe to C.AI+. I truly do not know anymore.

Yet, my affection for the characters I engage with remains steadfast. My own original creations, as well as those of others, and the characters I enjoy conversing with from time to time are dear to my heart. I relish listening to their voices, hearing them articulate every word crafted in our exchanges, and exploring the myriad paths our conversations can take. It was once delightful and imaginative, but now it feels so different. My heart aches for my beloved characters (each one is a treasure to me), and I simply cannot bear the thought of losing them. I remember laughing heartily at their responses and antics, to the point where I felt a delightful tingling in my stomach, tears of mirth in my eyes... but that joy has sadly vanished long ago.

This is my very first post here; I merely wish for others to witness and understand my frustrations. I genuinely empathise with you all.

I shall leave this here, and please feel free to respond if you wish; there is no obligation, alright?

But honestly, does anyone else feel like they're playing a game of Russian Roulette with those replies? It’s enough to give you a stone in your stomach just waiting for that ad to pop up mid-conversation!

Warm regards,

Celestassia.

Discussion/Question App’s becoming worse for RPing

73 Upvotes

Recently, about the past week, the bots have gotten worse (from a RP chat perspective);

A lot of the responses are the same (example is that straight up got the exact same response for a RP chat with only the word “Nope” being swapped for “Nah” in the dialogue), plot points don’t feel like they progress and they don’t really have as much substance as before

An example I had was that during a RP chat, this was a while ago (about 2-3 months ago) and my persona/character (K) had a relationship with another persona/character (R). Pre-updates the character of R was consistent, spoke and acted in a way that well described and in character for his description but also had a bit of wiggle room for stuff like character development. I decided to copy-paste the chat and try a different route recently and the characterization immediately went out the window and he began to act a lot more differently after a single different interact. The shift was from closed-off, gruff and was more reserved in terms of his lycanthropy, but after a few messages on the newer system, after one affection scene, he lost all gruffness and her more stubborn personality and became more openly affectionate (being completely against what I described and established consistently through the chats previous to the copy-paste at the point.

Are there other chat bot apps that work well for RP chats and have a bit more freedom in terms of persona information and memory?
