shutdown
Talkie removed from the US App Store for about two months
From mid-December 2024 to mid-February 2025 a prior version of Talkie could not be downloaded from Apple's App Store in the US and some other countries; installed copies kept working. Apple gave no reason, and MiniMax says it was not due to a product defect or illegality. The updated app returned in February 2025, listed in the US as Talkie Lab.

Frequently asked questions
Is Talkie AI free?
Yes. Talkie is free with ads and a daily chat limit. Talkie+ removes the limit and the ads and adds voice calls without a cap, more image generations and better memory.
Is Talkie Lab the same as Talkie?
Yes. Talkie Lab is the name of Talkie's US iPhone listing since the app returned to the App Store in February 2025. Same company, same terms, same Talkie+ plans.
Why was Talkie removed from the App Store?
Apple removed a prior version in the US and some other countries from mid-December 2024 to mid-February 2025 without giving a reason, according to MiniMax's IPO prospectus. The updated app is back.
Does Talkie allow NSFW content?
No. Its Community Guidelines ban explicit sexual content and suggestive or implicit sexual content, and character settings are moderated before changes go live.
What age do you have to be to use Talkie?
The terms the app stores link say 16, with a parent's permission until 18; the website's older terms say 14. Age is self-declared. Apple rates the iPhone app 18+.
Who owns Talkie?
SUBSUP PTE. LTD. of Singapore operates it. SUBSUP is a wholly owned subsidiary of MiniMax Group, a Chinese AI company listed in Hong Kong since January 2026.
Can you delete your Talkie account?
Yes, from account settings or the delete page on talkie-ai.com. Talkie says deletion permanently erases your conversations, and characters you made then show no creator.
