Swipey Memory: Questions Answered
Memory in Swipey has two halves: what she can see in the current session, and a durable profile that survives between them. The profile is built from your chats, can be read and corrected, and gets retrieved selectively. Depth varies by plan; the free tier keeps a shallower file.
How the recall works
What decides whether something gets remembered?
Relevance and repetition do most of the work. A detail stated plainly, or mentioned more than once, is far likelier to reach the durable store than a clause buried inside a long descriptive passage. Retrieval then scores stored entries against whatever you are talking about now, so something can sit dormant for weeks and resurface the moment it becomes relevant again. None of that needs managing, but it does reward being explicit.
Why does she recall my job but not a detail from the same message?
Because the two are not held the same way. Stable, identity-level facts are the kind of thing worth keeping indefinitely, while passing colour inside a scene often lives only in that session's context. When the session ends, the colour goes and the fact stays. If a detail matters to you, restate it in its own sentence and it gets treated as the second kind.
Does a longer history make her smarter about me?
Up to a point. More history means more raw material for the durable profile, which helps early on. Past a certain volume, though, the useful work is selection rather than size — the profile gets condensed and summarised, and what you feel is the quality of retrieval, not the length of your archive. A hundred careless sessions are worth less than a dozen clear ones.
Keeping it accurate
She has something wrong about me. How do I fix it?
Two routes, and both work. The quick one is to correct her in the chat explicitly — say what is wrong and what is true, in one sentence, rather than hinting at it. The thorough one is to open the stored details and edit or delete the entry yourself. Use the second for anything load-bearing: a name, a boundary, a relationship, a hard no.
Can I make her forget one specific thing?
Yes. Individual entries can be removed from the stored profile, which is the whole point of making memory visible in the first place. Bear in mind that a subject you discussed heavily may have shaped several entries rather than one, so it is worth scanning the list instead of deleting a single line and assuming the topic is closed.
Why did the character feel different after a long role-play?
That is classic drift. Long stretches in a voice unlike her own give the model a great deal of recent evidence about who she is, and it weighs that against the persona sheet. Recovery is quick: end the scene, restate her traits and tone in plain language, and give her one ordinary exchange to settle. Editing the persona sheet itself makes the fix permanent.
Plans, privacy and leaving
How much memory does the free tier actually give me?
Enough to judge the feature, which is the only test that counts. You can build a companion, hold real conversations, leave for a couple of days and see what she brings back. What the paid tier adds is depth and retrieval headroom rather than switching memory on — so the upgrade decision arrives after you already know whether the recall feels right.
Who can see what she remembers about me?
The stored profile lives inside your account. There is no social feed, no public profile and no sharing layer, so conversations and the details drawn from them are not visible to other members. Age confirmation is required before any of it, since this is an adult service. The Privacy Policy sets out how data is handled in full.
What happens to the memory if I stop using the app?
The profile simply sits there, and a companion you return to months later still has it — that is the upside of durable storage. If you would rather it did not, you can request deletion of the account and its stored detail, which also removes the conversation history the profile was built from. Nothing is retained that you have asked to have removed.
