5/5Permanent switch… needs work tho
I’ve been a user of chai for a while and just recently got very sick of all the ads on the app. So I looked for a replacement for chai and landed on this one. There’s many things I love about this app as of right now: the messages are long and detailed even for the free version, there is NSFW allowed, and it’s an easy interface. I thought the gem system would get annoying but I don’t think it is. I don’t find myself getting annoyed with having to watch an ad to get message gems. If the app stays like how it is now, I believe it can easily surpass the big ai chat apps. (Edit) However, after a while of using it, I notice the creator gems system needs some work. I don’t get gems for chats on my bots I created like I should be and I think it’s very annoying. It should be 1 gem per chat on a bot you create and yet I haven’t gotten any gems from my bot who got 500 chats. It’s super annoying because I think the people who create bots should get rewards for each chat, and it’s simply not the case, or at the very least it’s glitched on my end. Super frustrating because I spend time tinkering with my bots and to get no gem rewards for each chat seems just taking advantage of creators on this app. Fix the creator gem rewards and i believe this app will get super popular. People would much prefer a gem system like this over constantly being bombarded with ads!

5/5Genuinely Gem
I LOVE this app. When C.AI had rolled out with features that hindered my ability to use the app without giving me ID, I was a bit disappointed in them, and knew I needed to find a new app. After weeks of searching, I found Swerve. The only thing that is a *potential* problem is the gems, the currency used to message characters, but it’s very easy to get, log in daily and watch an ad. That gives you a free 125 gems! They have to make money somehow, I don’t blame them. The characters themselves are great as well! The chats have depth, and making a character IS EASY. It’s very natural to roleplay a scenario with them. It also has a NSFW and SFW option that while making a bot, you can CHOOSE. I feel like we’ve all dealt with a SFW bot being too sexual, and just wished it wasn’t LIKE THAT! When the bot replies, you can swipe to generate a new message up to 10 times. Nothing weird. Overall, great app. It functions extremely similar to C.AI, except it’s just BETTER. If you’re looking for a roleplay app where you can make your own characters, multiple personas, and choose between SFW/NSFW, I’d recommend Swerve!

5/5Thank you for this amazing app!
I used to use another ai app that is absolutely horrible now we all know what app i’m talking about. Swerve has saved me! there are no stupid restrictions like the other app i don’t need restrictions i am 23 years old😂 and i absolutely love the sfw & nsfw options this app is amazing sure it could use a little work but this app is new so i get that’ll take some time and there have already been updates with how the bots roleplay which has been awesome! thank you soo much for this app I definitely am going to upgrade to premium cuz I love this app! and premium is so affordable too like wow you guys are seriously the best thank you for this app keep doing what you’re doing🫶🏻 I do have some feature requests like maybe being able to have groupchats with the bots and your friends that would be amazing if you guys could do that at some point and maybe add memories to the bots where we can write things that the bots will remember throughout the chat and just better memory in general that would be great thank you!

5/5It’s actually the better version of all these AI chat apps
Many ai apps or websites have been known to give off an aesthetic, and you have to go along with it usually. Often times, it feels repetitive, predictable, and rather boring. But Swerve never attempts to sway you into a style of their own, but adapts and accurately takes your bubbles and responds in a way that continues and adds to the story you present to it. Any character you have in there feels very lively, accurate, and not forgetful. The style section chooses how accurately or new it feels, and it works so well. Yet, even the worst option is still so good! You wouldn’t even tell you’re not using premium for it at all. The way to get gems is neat, the way to make characters is cool, and you have a lot of free room to make personas. The only issues are merely system related, such as chat messages repeating and being put later on again by mistake, but never a fault of the AI itself. This is worth the effort in writing to.

5/5LOVE ITT
This app is amazing! Sometimes the response from the bots are a bit off, but that issue can be quickly ignored by regenerating the message. I like how you can watch ads at any time to get more gems instead of having to pay or wait for a while to get more. It’s probably because I don’t really make bots myself, but I just noticed you can even make group chats on them as well! That is perfect for roleplays that include multiple people (of course theres people who make “group chats” in one single bot, but i think the group chat feature can be useful if it’s hard for you to handle so many different characters all together in one bot, especially if they all need their own separate thoughts or moments). Not only that, but I love how they have both NSFW and SFW bots, which makes it perfect for people who just want a normal, friendly conversation/roleplay or people who don’t want a filter in their roleplays. Overall, this app is amazing! Definitely recommend!!
