Viro - Eco-Friendly AI

okay this is a good alternative but i wanted to bring some things to your attention I ran into some errors where the model will generate an image or mistake my prompt for trying to generate an image when i’m not and it’s annoying AI art is so uncomfortable to look at and i’m against generative AI art but the AI generating images when i didn’t prompt them to is not great

I genuinely want to love this app. I deeply appreciate the mission behind Viro — the eco-friendly model, climate focus, built-in stats, personas, web search, workspaces, photo gallery, private “cloud,” and even the eco store. The fact that it’s free while offering so many thoughtful features is honestly impressive. The vision is there. However, the usability right now makes it extremely difficult to rely on. Some consistent issues I’ve experienced (on both web and mobile): • The send button frequently doesn’t work. • “No connection” errors appear randomly, even with strong internet — and the only fix is starting an entirely new chat. • You can only upload one photo at a time. • If you send one photo and later need to send more in the same message, you can’t. • Buttons are clickable but sometimes do nothing. • The + icon in the text bar is often hidden or doesn’t respond. • You can’t type while it’s generating. • You can’t rename chats half the time or move them into projects. • You can’t edit messages. I understand this is a newer app, and I’m more than willing to accept minor glitches — but right now it feels like every single chat runs into an issue. That makes it hard to use consistently. I’m leaving this review because I truly believe in what Viro is trying to build. The ideas and features are strong. If the stability and core functionality improve, this could be one of the best AI platforms available. I hope the team keeps refining the experience — because I really do want to use and support this long-term.

Firstly, I love the app, I love the idea and I love the pledge you guys are making towards a better future and a better earth! Knowing that my impact matters and seeing the progress and benefits of that is something unique and exciting to see in the Ai race. This is an overall great project and app that I’m sure will start a little slow, but gain much traction as more people realize the negative impact that normal Ai is presenting towards our environment! I wrote a lengthy email to your support team already, however I’ll sum it up because there’s always room for improvement. I’m on an iPhone 15 Plus and while the Ui is really good, but I know that you can “polish the edges” to be even smoother! Some things to consider could be organizing conversations by adding custom folders like GPT which is a good feature instead of just scrolling through hundreds of different conversations. One issue i’m facing is that at certain times the Ai tends to cut its responses short and I’ll have to prompt it to pick up where it left off. To add, sometimes the Ai doesn’t generate a response due to a network connection, even though I’m connected to cellular and home wifi. Lastly, my account subscription status is having trouble verifying within settings. I’ll receive a message that says “Cannot verify subscription status” occasionally, but a refresh takes care of that issue. Overall, really solid app Viro! I’ve recommended it to my friends and family and I can’t wait to see the positive changes both environmentally and technologically for what’s in store for this app! Let’s keep the ball rolling and make a difference!
