I praised the UI when I originally started but now all i can see is downsides and i end up using ChatGPT over Merlin because of the UI.
Please note I am talking about the mobile app from now on as I primarily use it
  • The constant vault icon even though ive already looked at it, the inability to edit the sidebar on the mobile app and have the pre-chosen "Image Gen, Project and Youtube summeriser".
Side note : Also when you try image gen, the button to go advanced gen forces you to use another app which includes another subscription? Seems shady to me.
  • When I open up the model selector, it takes up so little of the screen you end uo seeing 2 models at once and makes scrolling a pain if my model is at the bottom. Maybe a dropdown, or change the list please.
  • Then the fact I cannot rename chats on mobile is crazy. On GPT i have one chat per model , and here the default chat title is whatever the app decides it to be.
  • I wish we could see the reasoning of the models when we use them. Like GPT does as far as im aware its in the API, because currently i cannot see the reasoning and wished maybe I could? And the fact that the output and input tokens limits seem smaller than API. I may be wrong but Merlin is either a "Middleman" where they provide multiple models, a bit like poe, or they provide a more productivity focused thing. Im not sure.
  • But TLDR ; The mobile app needs some love. Maybe more customisation features ; hiding useless LLMs, Renaming chats , improve the selection menu and other little tweaks
