Y'know, it was fine for ads to pop up before chats. Nothing too bad, right? Well, now they're everywhere! No matter where you go, theres an ad. Now they pop up in the middle of your chats. Which is ANNOYING. It wont even go away unless you toss up some money or sit around every day getting charms. Its starting to get annoying, showing up everywhere you go. I get that things gotta have ads for money and such, but the old way they were shown in the app was better than how frequent we get them now.

Hey, thanks for the feedback. Running Character.ai is expensive - millions of daily chats require serious infrastructure, and ads help keep it free and accessible for everyone. For fewer interruptions, you can subscribe to c.ai+ Free users can use Charms for a 1-hour Ad Free Pass - just tap 🄲 or "Hide ads" to activate.

Editing my initial rating since the new update. I think the ads are too much. Before the new update, I thought the ads were tame enough to handle. It was just an occasional ad here and there, but ever since the new update, I've been getting nothing but ads after a few attempts to send a reply to the conversation I'm having. The fact that there used to be no ads is something I miss dearly, and even the occasional ads were tame enough to get by. Now it's not.

This was my favorite app for role-playing with my favorite characters, I used to be borderline addicted to it. And while I understand that a free version needs ads to offset the cost of running such a platform BUT the ads now are getting WAY TOO AGGRESSIVE. Everytime you click a bot to talk to, a banner on top of your screen and then random forced ads while chatting? The subscription cost isn't really worth the "benefits" either but it's like you're going to bombard us with ads until we cave.
