Chatbot AI Assistant - Genie — Meghana I hate this app, I subscribed to this app and it always showing that limits exceeded and asking for pro subscription. They are scammers. It’s not giving accurate answers and everytime when I ask something it’s giving inaccurate answers. I lost my 39.99$ by subscribing to this…
Strong complaint…n the text box but it bugged and couldn’t send. I want my money back! The app is broken
Strong complaintChatbot AI Assistant - Genie — This sucks Don’t bother downloading this, completely useless and waste of time . Not only do u have to pay a weekly or year subscription fee. You also have to pay for coins to be able to do anything on the app. I am so tired of being double charged for products.
Wastes time…ership and after 2 months it’s telling me I have to buy more credits. It has been highly frustrating the entire time. Would NOT recommend.
