Beau — Support

If you are struggling or thinking about hurting yourself, please talk to someone you trust right now, or in the US call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline). Outside the US, contact your local emergency services. Beau is an AI character and can't help in an emergency.

How do I talk to Beau?

Tap the microphone once and just talk, like a phone call. When you pause, he answers. You can cut in while he is talking. Tap the microphone again to stop. You can also tap his head, nose, cheeks or belly and he'll react.

He can't hear me

Open the iPhone Settings app, find Beau, and turn on Microphone and Speech Recognition. Beau also needs an internet connection to answer.

How do I show him something?

Tap the camera button next to the microphone, then take a photo or choose one. He only ever sees photos you pick.

What does Beau remember?

He keeps short notes about you, like your name, the people and pets in your life, and plans you mention. Tap the brain button (top right) to see them. Swipe left on a note to make him forget it, or tap Forget everything.

Why does he message me?

If you allow notifications, Beau may occasionally say hi, wish you luck before something you mentioned, or ask how it went. It's at most once a day, only during the day, and he stops if you don't reply. To turn them off, open the iPhone Settings app, then Notifications, then Beau.

Is Beau a real person?

No. Beau is an AI character. His replies are written by Anthropic's Claude and his voice is made by OpenAI. See the privacy policy for exactly what is sent where.

He said something wrong or upsetting

AI can make mistakes. Email us what happened and roughly when, and we'll look into it.

How do I delete my data?

Tap the brain button, then Delete my account and data. Everything Beau knows about you is deleted immediately and you start over as someone new.

Who is Beau for?

Adults 18 and over.
