Replika
Rating source: app-store aggregate, re-verification pending. See methodology.
The original AI companion app, still one of the most recognizable. 3D avatar, long-term memory, voice and video calls, and a wellness layer that tilts the experience toward daily emotional routine rather than on-demand fantasy. NSFW was walled off years ago and hasn't fully returned, so Replika sits best with people who want a steady, safe-for-work companion.

Replika removes erotic roleplay (ERP); partially restores it for legacy users a month later
Replika abruptly filtered romantic/erotic roleplay for all users in February 2023, causing the category's most famous user revolt. In March 2023 it restored ERP for accounts created before February 2023. The episode remains the canonical example of why policy changes need a public record.
