## Key features

- **Several models in one chat:** Premium opens GPT-5, GPT-4o, o4-mini, Claude Sonnet 5, Gemini 3.5 Flash and Perplexity Sonar, and the model can be switched to suit the task.
- **Real-time web search:** Questions can be answered from current web results through Perplexity Sonar and Sonar Pro. Web search is a Premium feature.
- **Image generation and Pic Transformer:** Creates images from a description, edits existing ones in the chat, restyles an uploaded photo with preset looks, and turns a photo into a short video.
- **Doc Master:** Summarizes, rewrites, translates and answers questions about PDF, DOC, TXT and EPUB files. Text in a photo can be extracted with OCR and brought into the chat.
- **Writing tones and ready-made prompts:** Replies can be set to tones such as Professional, Friendly or Persuasive, and a prompt library covers captions, emails, resumes, travel plans and similar everyday tasks.
- **Web and mobile sync:** A single purchase applies across the web app and the iOS and Android apps, so the subscription does not need to be bought again on another device.

## Good for

- Casual users who want several AI models in one phone app
- Quick captions, emails and summaries from ready-made prompts
- People who want chat and image generation under one subscription

## Worth knowing

- The website lists no prices; they are shown in the app stores and in the web app before purchase, and may vary outside the US.
- The free plan is limited to basic chat: advanced models, web search, uploads and image generation all need Premium.
- Vendor pages disagree on the free plan's model: the plan table says GPT-5.6, while the FAQ says GPT-4o mini.
- The US App Store lists the iOS app as iPhone only.
