Troubleshooting Guide

Most issues can be resolved quickly with these steps.

🎤 MyPal Isn't Recognizing Your Voice

Problem: Your companion doesn't respond, or doesn't recognize you at the start of a session.

Try this:

  • Go to Settings → Voice Recognition and run a test. This tells you whether MyPal is hearing you clearly.
  • If the test scores low, re-train your voiceprint from that same screen.
  • Train and speak using the same microphone. If you enrolled on your phone and now use Bluetooth earbuds (or the reverse), re-training on your current setup usually fixes it.
  • Confirm microphone permission is granted in your device's app settings.
  • Move somewhere quieter — steady background noise makes recognition harder.
  • Speak naturally at a normal volume rather than over-enunciating.

🔊 You Can't Hear Your Companion

Problem: No audio, or the voice sounds distorted.

Try this:

  • Check that your device isn't muted and media volume is up
  • If you're paired to a Bluetooth device, confirm audio is routing there
  • Test your speaker with another app to rule out a device issue
  • Adjust the voice in Settings → Change Voice & Pitch
  • Restart the app, then your device

⚡ MyPal Is Slow or Freezing

Problem: Lag, stuttering, or the app stops responding.

Try this:

  • Close other apps running in the background
  • Check available storage and free up space if it's low
  • Confirm you have a stable internet connection — voice features need one
  • Restart your device
  • Update MyPal to the latest version in Google Play

🔐 Fingerprint or PIN Isn't Working

Problem: You can't get past the security prompt.

Try this:

  • Confirm fingerprint or face unlock is set up and working in your device settings
  • Switch methods in Settings → Authentication Method — you can use voice or fingerprint at session start
  • Adjust PIN, biometrics, and voiceprint options in Settings → Security Settings
  • Clean your fingerprint sensor and make sure your finger is dry
  • If you can't get in at all, send us a message

💾 Managing Your Conversations and Storage

Problem: You want to export or clear your history, or you're low on space.

Try this:

  • Go to Settings → Manage History to export or delete your conversations. This screen is biometric protected, so you'll be asked to authenticate first.
  • Deleting old conversations frees up storage on your device
  • Because your conversations are stored on your device and nowhere else, exporting is the only way to keep a copy — we can't retrieve anything for you

A note on privacy: MyPal stores your conversations on your device, not on a server. That's deliberate — but it means your data can't be recovered from anywhere else. If you want a backup, use Settings → Manage History to export it.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I change my companion's personality?

Go to Settings → Change Personality and pick from the six styles: Calm, Friendly, Empathetic, Enthusiastic, Charming, or Playful. You can change it as often as you like. Voice and pitch are adjusted separately in Settings → Change Voice & Pitch.

Can I export my conversations?

Yes. Go to Settings → Manage History, where you can export or delete your conversations. The screen is biometric protected, so you'll be asked to authenticate before you can access it. Since your conversations live on your device rather than on our servers, exporting is how you keep a copy of your own.

How do I test or re-train my voiceprint?

Go to Settings → Voice Recognition. You can run a test to see how well your companion recognizes you, and re-train your voiceprint from the same screen if the results are poor. Re-training is worth doing if you've changed microphones — for example, if you enrolled using your phone and have since started using Bluetooth earbuds.

What if I forget my PIN?

If you've set up fingerprint or face authentication, you can use it to get back in and change your PIN in Settings → Security Settings. Because MyPal has no servers and never stores your PIN in the cloud, we cannot reset it for you — which is also why we recommend enabling biometric authentication as a backup.

Can I use MyPal without biometric authentication?

Yes. You can choose how your session starts in Settings → Authentication Method — voice or fingerprint — and manage PIN, biometrics, and voiceprint options in Settings → Security Settings. We do recommend keeping at least one form of protection enabled, since your conversations are personal.

Can I use MyPal without talking to it?

Yes. MyPal has a text-only mode for people who'd rather type, or who are somewhere they can't speak freely. You can choose it during onboarding instead of recording a voiceprint.

How do I update MyPal?

Updates usually install automatically through Google Play. To check manually, open the Play Store, tap your profile icon, and select "Manage apps & device". Keeping MyPal current gives you the latest fixes and improvements.

What happens if I cancel my subscription?

You can cancel anytime through your Google Play account settings, with no long-term commitment. You'll lose access to paid features at the end of your billing period, but your conversations stay on your device — cancelling doesn't erase them. You can resubscribe at any time.
