Is Replika likely to fit you?
Likely fit if you want
- People who want one avatar-centered companion rather than a character libraryEach account is built around one private Replika whose relationship status, backstory, appearance and memories can be shaped over time.
- People who want visible controls over what their companion remembersReplika documents layered memory, a user-visible Memory tab and the ability to add, update or delete individual memories.
- People who value voice, avatar and immersive interaction optionsThe paid tiers add voice messaging, background calls, selfies and image generation, while the product also supports AR and beta VR access on Meta Quest.
May not fit if you need
- People who want several companions or group conversations inside one accountReplika officially limits each account to one Replika; separate accounts do not merge or share progress.
- People who need complete paid-tier prices before opening an app checkoutThe current Pro web page provides three visible offers, but the annual total and the current Ultra and Platinum prices remain unavailable from the reviewed evidence.
- People who need to erase all conversation history without deleting the accountReplika says complete message-history deletion currently requires deleting the account, even though individual memory entries can be managed separately.

Before you sign up
Privacy and eligibility
- How conversation data is used
- Messages and submitted media are processed to provide and personalize the companion; Replika says conversation content is not used or disclosed for marketing or advertising
- Account deletion
- Account deletion removes the Replika profile, history, photos and associated content; the current privacy policy also describes legal retention periods for some data categories
- Conversation-history deletion
- The complete message history cannot be deleted without deleting the account, although individual saved memories can be edited or removed
- Age requirement
- Adults only; users under 18 are not authorized to use the service
- Adult-content boundary
- The terms prohibit content described as obscene or pornographic, so adult eligibility does not mean unrestricted explicit content
- Third-party AI providers
- De-identified and minimized conversation data may be sent to contracted third-party AI providers to generate replies; the policy says those providers may not train their own models on it
