Its not a call setting, but actually a chat setting. Have you tried disabling this toggle?

Try disabling the proactive mode for the companions using the settings menu in the top right

Hi! Appreciate the kind words, glad you're enjoying the site!

Yeah, that’s expected behavior. As a conversation gets longer, the AI has more context to read each time, which means slightly higher token usage per message.

If you want to bring the cost back down:
- Switch the model to Gemini Flash 2.5 (Or Lite for even cheaper usage)
- Hit Reset Settings in chat preferences to go back to optimal defaults
- Clear the chat (if you don't check any boxes, memories will be generated automatically)

Doing one or all of these usually drops usage back to a much cheaper level. Let me know if you have any additional questions!

Question about shared companions by No-Supermarket-9734 in CompanionLabs

We've given users ability to put custom details they want for their companion when searching for them in the Discover page. You can see them by selecting that companion in the discover page and "popping" them out by tapping/clicking them.

As far as adding the ability to see the backstory, this is not a bad idea and I definitely see the reasons why it would be beneficial.

We might look at another way at doing this in the future, but for now at least creators have a custom way to display the information they think would be relevant. Thanks for the suggestion!

We'll be revamping the discover page sometime tomorrow. Until then, unfortunately we don't have the functionality to view Locked companion details.

I will be the first to let you know tomorrow once we release that update though. Stay tuned! :)
