Version 0.1.0 · Draft, not approved

Signing in

  • Enter your email address and choose Continue. We send a six-digit code from [email protected]. If you have no account yet, this starts one.
  • The code works for ten minutes. If it has expired or is refused, ask for a new one. You can ask again after 60 seconds.
  • If no email arrives, check your spam folder and that the address is spelled correctly. You can go back and change the address. If many codes were requested in a short time, sending can be held back for a while; try again later.
  • There are no passwords.

Setting up your account

The first time you sign in, the app asks for a display name, your country and your date of birth, and asks you to accept the Terms and the Privacy Notice and to permit AI processing. The date of birth is only used to check that you are 18 or older and is not kept.

Kinverie is in an invited test with a limited number of places. If the app says the test is full, no account has been created for you.

Characters and conversations

  • There are six characters. You have one ongoing conversation with each, and it follows your account to any device you sign in on. Conversations are not stored on your phone, so you need a connection to read them.
  • Before you start a conversation, or when you reset one, you can edit the character's opening message (up to 400 characters). Once the conversation has started the opening cannot be changed. An opening does not use one of your daily replies.
  • A message can be up to 2,000 characters. Replies arrive whole, not word by word.
  • A character works from a recent part of the conversation, so it can lose track of earlier parts.
  • A conversation can hold up to 2,000 messages. After that it has to be reset before it can continue; the app offers an export first.

Saved details

You can save up to ten details for each character, each up to 240 characters. They belong to that character only.

Saved details are not used until you switch on "Use saved details in replies" for that character. You can switch it off again, and edit or delete a detail, at any time. Deleting a detail does not remove its wording from messages already in the conversation.

Limits and pauses

  • You can receive up to 30 replies a day. The count starts again at midnight UTC. Only replies you actually receive count.
  • You can send up to five messages a minute, and one reply can be in progress at a time.
  • Replies can pause for everyone, for example when the test's AI budget is used up or a provider has an outage. You can still read your conversations, report a message, export your data and delete your account.
  • These limits may change during the test.

When a reply does not arrive

Your message stays in the conversation, and the app shows a notice that says what happened. After a failure or a timeout you can choose Try again on your latest message. A message that was refused by a content check cannot be sent again as it is.

Hide, report, reset

  • Hide from future replies keeps a message out of what the character works from. It does not delete the message.
  • Report sends us the AI reply you select, with a note if you write one. You get a reference for it.
  • Reset deletes the conversation's messages so that you can start again. You choose whether the saved details for that character are deleted too.

The Safety page says more, including what to do in an emergency.

Your data

  • Export. Under Settings, Data and account, you can request a copy of your data. It is prepared for download in the app and is available for 24 hours.
  • Delete your account. Under Settings, Data and account, or without the app at kinverie.com/delete-account. Your access ends as soon as the request is accepted, and we aim to finish the deletion within 24 hours.
  • Before an export or a deletion the app asks for a new email code unless you signed in with one in the last five minutes.

Settings

In Settings you can change your display name, choose a light, dark or system appearance, read the Terms, the Privacy Notice and the Safety page, withdraw the AI-processing permission, and sign out. Signing out removes your sign-in details and any unsent draft from the device.
