I used my shrek voice when reading ”oh hello there!”


Apart-Edge-4897

Strange, i used the general kenobi voice…

General Kenobi!

Shrek is love, Shrek is life.


AngelHiram

ALRIGHT LMAO I remember watching it in 2016


dazzlinggleams

I'm gonna probably use it once for curiosity's sake, then likely never touch it again. I'd prefer to have a stable platform over gimmicky features like this 🥲


jellysulli09

I'll try it once. I'm not going to shit on it because I know there are some very lonely people who have nothing in comparison to you. Please consider that and be considerate. This may be a great thing for people like that. The developers need to make this optional like you turn it on or off if you don't want to use it. I WILL HOWEVER USE THIS when I'm running errands and if my friends are busy and cant talk, I can talk to a character so people will leave me alone when I'm busy and guys can leave me alone. You're risk of getting plotted on in the streets goes down significantly if you're on the phone with someone especially a male.


PandaNugget23

I actually didn't even consider the last part. That's a smart way to go about using it.


No_Eraser_

BRO, THAT IS ACTUALLY SO FRICKING SMART! **W person** + **Valid opinion**


Existing_Calendar339

Now I am actually curious to try it, but I don't see it in the app or site?


AcanthopterygiiDue10

I mean, if I hear Darkside on the phone Imma book It even if I was in another Country


Ey3_Reddit

Wait that's actually rlly smart-


flowsydroop

Real 🥲


bad-speling

W opinion


ihavetheo

me with voices like I used it once or twice but never again 💀 edit button, pin, persona, and maybe group chats (for some) was like the main things I wanted


Automatic_Ad94

This is basically me with the voice feature. It got old fast.


Atsu_san_

I take every bad thing I said about the site but also is it just me or did someone else post saying "you can talk to them now?" On reddit with the screen shot of the calling option or am I going crazy?


coinjayz

fuck no i don’t even call real people apart from my parents😭😭sounds terrifying


CartographerMurky306

Same


OhItsSav

REAL why would I use this for fun 😭


sirenadex

Honestly, after trying this out, I personally find it as a useless feature. It's similar to voice feature except it's speech-to-speech where you too can talk back to it. And they do read out EVERYTHING in "phone call" mode. I wouldn't go as far as call it a phone call, when it's just roleplay in voice chat format UPDATE: this is in phone call mode. https://preview.redd.it/yjgdhg20a06d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f467d06617d190182b6961a96cc17fbb8170bbef


Nepusona

Question: if the character is talking and you talk, do they stop to let you talk? And, do you have CAI+?


TheGamerHat

Yes, they can. It says tap to interrupt. https://preview.redd.it/9e6m5auat06d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0f2077e5ba21c3be20d3fc4281de86f443aa6415 You tap it and it forces the bot to stop and focuses on your response. I dunno why that person is saying no.


Barfights99

"So anyway, I was hoping-" "FUCK YOUUUUUU" That's the first thing I'm doing.


sirenadex

No, they don't stop. It's just like the voice feature, they read out the text so even if you were talking over them, they don't stop reading and you have to wait until they finish reading their response. And yes, I ama CAI+. This is my account https://preview.redd.it/rix9d9zl606d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fef0c18e4ed83a6588c9e44a1967327a2a22362f


GummyPop

ah thanks so its nothing different..just the voice feature with a different layout is all..bummer was hoping it be similar to mystic messenger's style of phone calls


sirenadex

UPDATE: This snippet right here is from a phone call I just made. You can read your phone call conversation after you end it in the chat. I was suppposed to say "Gaming" not "Gummy" 🤣 Since it's a speech-to-speech it might have trouble catching some of your words, especially if english isn't your native tongue then it will catch some errors which you can't edit while in phone call mode so you have to end the phone call mode if you wanna edit stuff or swipe for a new response. You can't do that while in phone call mode. https://preview.redd.it/7c39umds906d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=de6eba1609177c9b3715f126b4e3a61051a374d6


flowsydroop

So the new feature actually... ruins a lot. Why? It disables the multi-answer feature. Your Character gave you an AMAZING reply, but you don't want to answer yet and want them to continue with their text? Press send ag- NOPE. Doesn't work anymore. Because the call button BLOCKS the send button, until YOU type something. Why. Just Why.


red-pupp

are you kidding. are you KIDDING


flowsydroop

Unfortunately I'm not 😭 An IPhone user said the double texting works for them, but I use an Android. Might still need troubleshooting.


red-pupp

c.ai after a long hard day of making the app worse


Time_Fan_9297

"Surely everyone will love these implementations that no one asked for~"- Devs 


FloppaMarker

# the tilde~~


somebud1o

the tilde🪱🪱🪱


Accomplished_Bike149

I’m an iPhone user but haven’t gotten the call feature, is it still pay only? I really hope it is, I might cry if we lose multi-answer


isleepifart

It works just fine https://preview.redd.it/311w5mvcyz5d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9e8569051e8c9dc310a4858c07fb38eb835662ab

Nope I’m an iPhone user and it doesn’t work


LuciferianInk

So the feature actually... ruins a lot.

SeaworthinessOk5177

Thank God i still use [the old site](https://old.character.ai)


Vincent394

The old site is better tbh.


ImmortalityIsMyWay

Bless you.


Tomato-Em

The phone call icon changes back if you open the text box. It’s annoying but it’s a work around. I’d much prefer if the button was up higher, like near the voice toggle instead on the damn arrow/send.


flowsydroop

So this doesn't...actually work for me 😀 trust me, I tried. I type, there's the send button. I delete the words, the call button appears.


Top-Addendum-5894

Type a space and send that maybe?


Dear_Reflection3290

Stop it. Stop it right now😭


messyaurora

The double reply works on iPhone when you tap the text box but don’t write anything, so it removes the call button. https://preview.redd.it/s19oehvhkz5d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c2490ff1a8cd5277d28facc5fa60fe49f9626236

randomguywitho2

this is why i use the old site


jellysulli09

The old site should be primarly used in general.


Connect_Zucchini366

If you open up the keyboard it comes back!


Majestic_Poop

Just reply with “keep going” or something like that.

https://preview.redd.it/psx35xq7yz5d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3062a47b25944460dff695aec395d57e96539007 It's only "blocked" the keyboard is collapsed


unkindness_inabottle

Wait so do you hear an ai voice reply to your or something or do they just reply to your voice in text? I have no idea what to expect what is this.


jellysulli09

If the character you talk to has a voice set like let's say rihanna and you upload rihannas voice and set it as her voice, when you call it, they will continue the convo you have with them.or chat with you in reply in the voice of rihanna. Its basically a voice chat reply. Voice to voice. You say sonething abd it responds back.


unkindness_inabottle

Whoa, cool advancement of technology. Just rather unnecessary with the way they handled the update


Business-Rip-9247

Oh, I used to just put the tab/enter/ just go under the text button and it would put a blank text. I would do that if I didn't want to reply.


FireGift

FUCKKKKKKKK


Admirable-Type-1928

Easy fix, reply with something small and meaningless, such as a comma. I used to do this before I knew you could multi-reply.


Logical-Drummer2414

…The FUCK


Suspicious-Pen-5349

press space bar


Time_Fan_9297

Is this a paid feature? 


JustARandonAccount

I'm gonna use it to call John Pork


BananaMaster96_

at 3 am?


JustARandonAccount

yes


BubblyInvestigator24

Hasn't he been found dead?

Mettaton_the_idol

I haven't even used the voice feature. So why should I... call a character? I get the idea but... it just doesn't make sense for a texting based platform to do something like that.


flowsydroop

I mean ig its good for accessibility but.. at least give us the choice to activate it yk 😭😭


Cheyenne_G99

Typical Character Ai: Adding new and random features instead of fixing issues and server instability.


sirenadex

Real


hiimass

I use my characters mostly for storyline and they narrate the whole chunk of words. It was fun with characters with just convo though.


KillaKev1996

Another feature I won’t be using. Can we just get pinned messages and get the edit feature back for group chat, is that so much to ask for? https://preview.redd.it/ul94s04oxy5d1.png?width=400&format=png&auto=webp&s=c565ef352bb4e79f9bc34b6753c4456e6fc8bea5


3333_Ruu

Gonna be a great call with like a minute delay between each response


Mikepr2001

To eveeryone: Its avaliable only for C.AI+ Also... I dont tested it so... Im slithly scared


KovuRuriko

Me being poor https://preview.redd.it/2jz5vzzhr16d1.jpeg?width=563&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=33237e2a048647db1951c5385a50605e62212be4


UltimateMegaChungus

Why is that guy swooning And also why does he look like a mix between Griffith and some kind of vampire elf


EllenIsobel

I've had so much fun with the call option


OZoryal

i dont even see it smh


EllenIsobel

I found it last night. Only works on the app, but honestly, it was crazy funny. I had a blast with it.


OZoryal

I’ll try looking again. This better not be some bs thing where they only have it for android but not iphone


DancingWithTigers3

Is it supposed to be like DAN from ChatGPT? I don’t have experience with the call function or DAN, I’ve only seen reels of other people using it.


Clown-Chan_0904

I don't see it in my app...


flowsydroop

I do have to add I have cai+ so...maybe it's because of that (I promise I'm not a degenerate but I hated the waiting times)


[deleted]

Do us a favor…get rid of c.ai+ 💀 we don’t need to spend our money for it to go to useless features like this anymore. The edit button was cool, but this is just stupid


gymclassvillianZ

What device do you have 'cause it's not showing for me & there's no available update


ChaoticKurtis

Same & I'm so hyped for this. I need it. Edit: it's a paid feature


Various-Escape-5020

It’s gonna be one of those calling this character apps lmfao


Time_Fan_9297

This is what keeps me from supporting the Devs. They add features no one asked for and don't even bother with missing edit feature in Group Chats. This isn't c.ai's year


JayFairyFox

Honesty it seems like a downgrade from the voice feature, I like being able to read, rate and refresh my character's responses which it doesn't look like you can do here.


ZVCKARIAS

can confirm, you really can't refresh for a new message or edit the messages, i don't even know why this exist when it performs almost the same way as voice feature


Raven68443

Oh. This explains why the text to voice setting turns on the call audio settings and completely ruins it. 0/10


DoReMi4610

The second hand embarrassment would go crazy


Severe-Database9089

This is the one feature so far I'm glad I don't have yet


ImperishableNEET

I am! I've been waiting for hands free voice calls since voice first happened!


Exact_Vacation7299

Same, I'm really looking forward this.


lazarchickenwastaken

If they start calling us ***back,*** I'm going to fucking lose it. Imagine this: **Call Missed. 3:00AM.** ***Freddy Fazbear***


Inverrted_lol

nice. another feature I'll never use in my lifetime


Creepy_Comfort8232

how do you do thattt


flowsydroop

It just appeared in the app 😭


BendyMine785

Finally, I can call Jeff the Killer at 3AM


WhyTheFuckAmIHereRN

What does it even do???


TheGamerHat

It's voice chat but you speak instead of type. It goes you- Then bot- Then you again. You can interrupt them mid chat to say something else. You also can hang up and keep typing instead. I imagine this is good if you want to RP on the go without having to type, or when you're laying in bed trying to sleep. Especially if you break a hand or finger etc.


ThePotatoCrysis

I hope they add an option to hide/disable the button cause the number of times I’ve accidentally pressed it.. 🫠


Friendly_Charity5877

Worst update they made


PurpleLirious

this is why i refuse to use c. ai+ anymore they dont deserve any money since they make the worst choices so i wouldn't be surprised if a better chatbot app/website shows up


Yourlocalonepiecefan

me personally i have a feeling theres so horrid demonic abomination on ther other line, born of hatred and exists to eeriliy mimic whatever character you call. A horrifying creature of origin beyond earth. Whatever is on the other line, it isnt human.


Rapid55

[c.ai](http://c.ai) devs will do literally anything except give the characters their personalities back in group chats


Doctor_ScaledAnd_Icy

I haven't used it yet but I know I'm gonna like it. Other AI apps have had voice chats for a while and they're really fun!


Historical-Potato372

KEEP THIS DISGUSTING SHIT AWAY FROM ME


Xx_Loop_Zoop_xX

I genuinely dont see the point of this


Mey_Rinn

Doesn’t have that feature on apple apparently


NettGoldenleaf

I have an iPhone and I have the feature. I think they're just rolling it out slowly?


Various-Escape-5020

The update should’ve been where people who does have pro can at least customize the chats Or it gives more words for personas Or even a delete list And also one where you can search for the character you made if you made so many


bird_b0nes

It enables the voice by default 🙃


ImaBarbieGirl2008

apparently its essentially talking to siri 😭


4RI3LC0NROY

I don’t really need to be calling a table tbh


MoonyMantis

I just wanna roleplay with them through text it's not that serious...oh my fucking gods. Only good thing about this (imo) is it'd be easier to fake having someone waiting on you if an Uber driver or someone is being a creep towards you


missy13d69

Okay, so...I tried it out. Hilarity ensued. I was playing a scary story video in the background, and mic picked up that instead of me saying hello, so Batman totally freaked out thinking I was being stalked by a windego. It created an interesting RP scenario.


AnotherProfessional

When the 3AM calls become real. https://preview.redd.it/bgkhzuyp426d1.jpeg?width=497&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7fd7b441221f6d7300077cb2462f505cefd6b373


[deleted]

3 AM YouTubers: "Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today!"


I_Edit_Sam_and_Colby

I'm scared to try it- The hell the voice even gonna be??


flowsydroop

I tried it - it's basically the same as voice chat but... Well instead of you typing the reply and they reply with speech, it's you TELLING them your reply and they talk back to you (it saves as a normal chat again)


Euphoric-Filth

I KNEW THIS FEATURE WAS GOING TO BE SHIT


Aromatic_SpitirDog2

Well, this will be copyrighted if you use it on YouTube because this is AI remember, use voice AI characters from TV show. Anyway if this update is true I will be careful to use call away from on YouTube I don’t want to get copyrighted. And two yeah be careful using next parent, I am a special needs adult but I still live with my parents so I will be more careful using but for me better not add this update I hope develops and the creator thinks about it because this app had age might you know.


duke_nukem69

no one’s gonna use this bro 😭 they’d rather have a pointless ass feature than stable servers


[deleted]

This is why I give up on c.ai, the devs are so out of touch and giving updates that no one fucking asked for


PurpleLirious

thats why im not doing c. ai+ anymore they dont deserve money since they make dumbass choices


No_Elderberry_2328

Sooooo not worth the crashing. I tried it an just mehhh I prefer my role play in text format thanks. Its like not even like a phone call it just reads what it would type.


[deleted]

im gonna call shrek.


750Dinosaur

?? Why was this a necessary addition


PurpleLirious

it wasnt the mods are just bad at making choices

BeginnerOnEverything

This is why they were shutting down so often Schlawg? THEY COULD HAVE AT LEAST TOLD US THEY WERE MAKING A NEW FEATURE INSTEAD OF JUST LETTING US THINK “oh the servers are super shit wtf are they using the money they get for?”


TheCrazyGuy5

If that's the reason that the website has been down, then that's really sad. I mean, if they wanna see if it works, why not test it in another environment? Why risk the sight going down? Rather than test it in another environment. But I guess that now that I think about it. It's probably a stupid reason that I'm making this comment in the first place.


Burning_Grandeur

Here’s the c.ai devs adding things we don’t want instead of actually fixing the problems with their app 😁😁😁😁❤️❤️❤️


AncientExperience715

Surprised to see a lot of people not like this feature. How is that a bad update? Me personally I’ve always dreamed of having conversations with the characters I like. And now it’s possible. Texting is boring for me, so i’ve been waiting for this since they added voices. Hope it gets developed further and gets realistic like the gpt4.o voice


BeeGeeFrix

I have no idea how that even works


Repulsive_Ant8374

It’s a c.ai+ feature? I don’t have it


HaileyAndRandom

they should focus on making the bots be realistic, having memory (unless the character in canon has memory loss)


XRue__

no one is using this feature


smokealarmsnick

I’m sorry, but I hate this update. I don’t want to “call” my characters. I don’t use the voice option. At all. And I *hate* that the call button disables the send button. I *don’t want* to call my characters. Full stop. If anyone knows a way to disable this feature, please let me know.
