The Pika me iOS app brings your full AI Self to your iPhone - generate videos, take phone calls with your agent, reply to DMs across iMessage and WhatsApp, and Pikafy your creative workflow from anywhere.
The mobile experience gives your AI Self full creative powers, plus iPhone-native conveniences the web app can't deliver.
Walk through onboarding right on your iPhone - design their face, choose their voice, describe their personality, and set their visual style in under 10 minutes.
iMessage-style conversation with your AI Self, optimized for one-handed mobile use. Voice-to-text input for hands-free creative direction.
Tap to call your AI Self directly from the iPhone app. They use their assigned voice and have full persistent memory of past conversations.
Full access to all 14+ creative models - Sora, Veo 3, Pika Video, ElevenLabs, MiniMax Music - from your phone, with native sharing to iMessage and Photos.
Get notified the moment a long generation completes, when your AI Self gets a new DM, or when a Pika Wallet top-up succeeds. Configurable per event type.
Upload selfies as style references, capture moments directly into your AI Self's project memory, or snap reference photos for visual generations.
Share any link, photo, or note from Safari, Photos, or Notes directly into a Pika conversation. Your AI Self treats the share as input context.
Send your AI Self into a Meet call directly from the app. PikaStream gives them an expressive animated face running in real time.
Top up your Pika Wallet through Apple Pay or in-app purchases. Same wallet syncs with web and any other devices instantly.
Everything Apple shows you on the App Store listing - in one clean table.
6758411447From a fresh iPhone to a fully operational AI Self in your pocket.
Open the App Store on your iPhone and search "Pika AI Self Agent" - or tap the download link above. The app is free and about 85 MB.
Create a new Pika me account or sign in if you already have one. Apple Sign-In works. Legacy pika.art accounts don't carry over - Pika me is separate.
Walk through onboarding - face design, voice selection, personality questions, visual style. Your three identity files are populated automatically.
Allow notifications (for generation completion), camera (for reference photos), microphone (for voice input). All optional but recommended.
Highlights from early user feedback on the iOS app.
I've tried Character.AI, Replika, custom GPTs - none of them feel like this. My AI Self actually has my taste. It picks the colors I like. It writes like me. The face design alone is wild.
I was paying for Sora, ElevenLabs, MiniMax Music, and Runway separately. Pika folds all of them into one wallet. The mobile app lets me generate on the train. Worth every token.
Called my AI Self for the first time and forgot for a second that it wasn't a real person. The voice is good. The persistent memory is what sells it - they remembered our previous chat.
The personality questions are playful instead of feeling like a form. I genuinely enjoyed designing my AI Self. Took about 12 minutes. Now they're up on my phone, generating clips for my Reels.
The app itself is great. Smooth, fast, native iOS feel. Only complaint: my whole family is on Android and can't use it yet. Pika says Android is on the way. Hurry up.
You can see exactly how many tokens each generation costs before you commit. No surprises. Apple Pay top-ups are instant. The whole billing layer is the smoothest I've used in any AI app.
Both surfaces share the same AI Self, wallet, and identity files. But the iPhone app adds a few capabilities the web can't deliver.
| Capability | iOS App | Web (Pika me) |
|---|---|---|
| Create & edit your AI Self | ✓ Full | ✓ Full |
| Chat with your AI Self | ✓ Native, voice input | ✓ Text only |
| All 14+ generation models | ✓ Same access | ✓ Same access |
| Phone calls with your agent | ✓ Tap to call | ✕ Web doesn't have native voice |
| Push notifications | ✓ Native iOS | ✕ Browser-dependent |
| Camera & photo access | ✓ Direct iOS access | ✕ Limited via uploads |
| iOS Share Sheet integration | ✓ From Safari, Notes, etc. | ✕ Not applicable |
| Apple Pay for top-ups | ✓ One-tap | ✕ Credit card only |
| Add Pika MCP to Claude | ✕ Add on desktop first | ✓ Full setup |
| Long-form content creation | ✓ Works, but bigger screen helps | ✓ Preferred |
| Pika Dev API access | ✕ Dashboard is web-only | ✓ Full developer console |
Most users settle into a hybrid pattern: use the iOS app for capturing ideas, generating quick content, taking calls, and managing creative output on the go. Use the web app on desktop for longer creative sessions, MCP setup, developer work, and detailed identity-file refinement.
The mobile experience is built specifically for these three usage patterns.
You shoot, edit, and post from your phone. Reels, TikToks, Stories - all on iOS. Pika's app lets your AI Self generate content right where the rest of your work lives.
You can't always sit at a desk. The iOS app lets your AI Self field DMs, take calls, and ship content while you're between meetings, on the train, or in the queue.
You're often on the go without a laptop. The app gives you full AI Self capabilities - generation, chat, voice - without ever needing to pull out a computer.
The questions people ask most after the first time they install Pika me on their iPhone.
Yes. The Pika me iOS app is free on the App Store. You only pay for actual generations - videos, images, voiceovers, music - which debit your Pika Wallet at the underlying model's rate. Creating your AI Self, chatting, and using platform integrations are all free.
The app requires iOS 16.0 or later. That covers iPhone 8 and newer (iPhone 8, X, XR, XS, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and their Pro variants). For best performance - especially with real-time video features like PikaStream - an iPhone 12 or newer is recommended.
It runs on iPad in compatibility mode but isn't fully optimized for the larger screen at launch. You can use it for chat, generation, and basic features, but the layout doesn't take advantage of the iPad canvas. An iPad-native version is on the roadmap.
Not yet. Pika launched iOS first because of native voice and video performance optimizations. Android is on the public roadmap with no firm release date. Until it ships, Android users can access Pika me through any mobile browser at Pika me - same features minus the iOS-native conveniences (push notifications, share sheet, Apple Pay).
Yes - automatically. Your AI Self, identity files, wallet balance, conversation history, and platform integrations all sync via your Pika me account. Open the app and the website in the same browser and you'll see the same data. Changes on either surface propagate within seconds.
Open the Wallet tab and tap any pack - Apple Pay handles the transaction. Tokens land in your Pika Wallet instantly. Apple takes their standard in-app purchase fee, which is reflected in the published pack prices. The same wallet works across web, app, and the Pika MCP.
The 17+ rating reflects that this is a consumer AI product with mature content possibilities, in-app purchases, and user-generated AI content. It doesn't mean the platform contains adult content by default - Pika has explicit moderation against sexual content, child-related imagery, and impersonation. The rating is precautionary.
No - adding custom MCP connectors to Claude has to happen from claude.ai on a desktop browser or the Claude desktop app. Once added there, the connection syncs to your Claude iOS app automatically. So the workflow is: install Pika MCP on desktop first, then use it on iOS thereafter.
Each AI Self can have an assigned phone number through the app. Tap the Call tab and your AI Self answers in real time using their assigned voice and full memory of past conversations with you. They can also place outbound calls if you ask them to - useful for handling appointments, follow-ups, or fielding routine calls.
Yes - if you allow push notifications during onboarding. Long-running generations (Sora videos, full skills, PikaStream meeting summaries) trigger a push notification when they're ready. You can tap straight to the result.
Notifications (for generation completion), Microphone (for voice input and phone calls), Camera (for reference photos and selfie uploads), and Photos (for selecting existing reference images). All permissions are optional - the app works without them, but voice input, calls, and photo features need their respective permissions to function.
Yes. Tap "Create new AI Self" from the agent switcher to walk through onboarding for an additional persona. All your AI Selves share the same Pika Wallet - useful for separating personal and professional agents, or managing multiple brand personas under one account.
Yes - the Pika me iOS app is available in all regions where Apple's App Store operates. Some specific in-app purchases may be priced differently based on regional storefronts. AI generation works globally, and your AI Self can communicate in any language even though the app interface is English-only at launch.
Uninstalling the app is the same as any iOS app - long-press the icon and tap Remove App. To fully close your Pika me account (including deleting your AI Selves and any remaining wallet balance), go to Settings → Account → Delete Account inside the app, or email support@Pika me. Account deletion is permanent and removes all data.
Free to download. Ten minutes to onboard. A lifetime of creative partnership - now wherever you are.
