Guests may open any character and chat without an account until their starter Cherries are gone, and the first Reels play before you sign in. When we registered a free account (email code or Google) on 26 September 2026 it received 55 Cherries, charged at 1 per message, which gave us 56 messages; the sign-up screen additionally advertises '10 free generations'. The site mentions a daily limit on free use that Premium lifts but gives no figure, and the upgrade page notes that free chats forget after roughly 30 messages. According to the generator FAQ, sign-up Cherries pay for your first images, although the plan comparison marks images and videos as Premium; in-chat photos, custom prompts, image editing, angle changes, upscaling and longer or voiced clips all require a subscription. Trial: The upgrade page shows no free Premium trial. Even so, the site's social preview still advertises '2 weeks free premium (first 1000 only)', and its code contains a disabled holiday promotion of free Premium with 200 daily credits. Right now yearly billing includes 1,000 bonus Cherries in the first month, flagged as a limited-time deal.
