Kindroid review

Kindroid has the most complete feature list among the companion apps here. You write the character's personality, backstory and key memories, and the app keeps long-term memory of past chats. Calls go further than rivals: real-time voice calls with expressive voices you can design from a description, and live video calls where the avatar lip syncs and reacts, with optional camera or screen sharing. With proactivity switched on, a Kindroid can message you first or send a voice note or selfie. Invite-only Rooms bring friends and their AIs into one group chat for collaborative storytelling, and the AI can search the web and look at images you send. Kindroid states there are no ads and that user data is not sold, and its site advertises 4M+ downloads. The cost is the main drawback: the US App Store lists the Kindroid Subscription at $15.99 a month or $159.99 a year, with Ultra at $28.99 and MAX at $68.99. We compared documented features and published prices rather than testing the app.
