Long-term memory is what makes a companion feel continuous: it recalls names, events and preferences across sessions. Apps differ in how much they keep and whether you can view or edit it. If continuity matters to you, check whether memory is on the free tier or only paid plans.
Voice ranges from recorded voice messages to live calls. Live calls feel more natural but often sit behind a subscription or use credits. Try the free version first if you can: voice quality and latency vary a lot between apps.
Companion chats are personal. Before you commit, read the app's privacy policy for whether conversations are used to train models, how long they are kept, and whether you can delete your data and account. Avoid sharing identifying details you would not want stored.
Most apps are free to start and charge for messages, memory, voice or images. Prices change often and app-store prices can differ from web prices, so compare the plan you actually need and watch for credit or token systems on top of a subscription.
