Voice Changer: Kotodama AI

UPDATE: The issues have been resolved! This is a fun app to play with. I’ve only used the preloaded voices, so I’m interested to try making one once I find a use case for it. Sometimes the intonation and cadence seems a little odd on some voices, particularly in that they seem to speak too quickly to sound natural. I’m not sure if it would be possible to offer additional tweaks to thinks like talking speed or pitch, but that would be very cool. Thanks for the app, and for diligently fixing the errors! Previous review: I was able to generate one voice clip after the tutorial. After that, I was given a “something went wrong” message when I tried to generate another. Every time I opened the app, I was prompted to subscribe again. Then, when I tried to generate, I was given the same message that “Something went wrong” every single time. My number of available characters fluctuates wildly between 19k and -15. The feature to report a problem in the app doesn’t work either— I can tap “send” over and over and nothing happens. I turned my phone off and back on again, to no avail. I deleted and redownloaded the app to see if that would help, and now after the tutorial I’m given a different message. This one says that a subscription has been detected and my account is being updated to reflect that, and to reopen the app. But whether I close the message and wait, or close and reopen the app, I just get that same message again and again. I think there was a support email address listed in the FAQ, but now I can’t even get past that initial message to get into the options and find it again. Nothing works.

Update: BUYER BEWARE! This app is still VERY broken! Developer’s response below (and in other reviews) is dishonest. Reinstalling the app puts you back in the infinite loop. This app is completely useless without a major update. The dev hasn’t announced they’re even investigating or plan to address its litany of issues. DO NOT buy any in-apps (assuming you even can) or demand a refund from dev or App Store. As most of the recent reviews show, the developer’s updates haven’t fixed much. Access to premade voices, ability to upload my voice, a tutorial, etc. are all needed to make this app useable. Please communicate with the (would be) user base who want to help this app succeed. Until then, 1 star (potentially more if the bugs are fixed).

They give you a few characters to try out the voices. The voice changer models are pretty close to who they’re trying to model (I used the Ramsay voice), but there were some issues with the AI not being able to naturally phrase English and all the sentences I put in came out/jumbled rapidly without any natural pausing between them.

Cannot get any help or response!!!!!

It’s broke

Developer seems to have gone silent on early adopters part of lifetime campaign. I would be very cautious about sending money to this developer. Updates unfortunately haven’t fixed infinite loop or empty voice list issues, either. ‘Request help’ inside app also remains non-functional and emails unreturned.

New update did not fix this!

This app have been really helpful for my project work, this is literally a life saver!

Message pops up saying ‘Subscription Detected’ please restart. Clicking restart repeatedly brings up the same message.

The app is still in loop of launch > subscription detected > restart. Developer said the bug was fixed and 2 versions came out but still those with lifetime subscription can’t use the app.
