Is Nomi AI safe?

Nomi is safe to use as an adult companion app if you accept its sign-in model: the privacy policy dated April 27, 2026 requires a Google or Apple account, describes deletion of personal information within roughly 28 days, and says Nomi does not sell your data. The open questions are provider routing, training use, and moderation, none of which the policy settles.

What the policy says

Nomi’s privacy policy describes collection of your Google or Apple email, date of birth, name or pseudonym, user content, account activity, and payment data. Sign-in is limited to Google or Apple accounts, which means Nomi operates inside the identity systems of those companies. The policy says personal information is not sold or rented, and it describes access, change, delete, and transfer rights subject to applicable law.

Retention is defined by deletion: account deletion through settings removes personal information within roughly 28 days, with archives and legal exceptions. On training, the policy says data may be used to improve the system, but whether that includes model training is not fully clear. The Google Play data safety listing shows developer-declared claims including no third-party sharing and encryption in transit; those labels are developer declarations, not independent audits.

The Play listing also declares encryption in transit and deletion-request availability. Read those as context for the policy rather than as proof: they describe design intentions as shown by Google, and the policy text is the more detailed statement of what actually happens to your data.

Age rules

Nomi is 18+ in both the checked App Store listing and the privacy policy. There is no teen layer described. What age assurance exists beyond the policy statement is not documented in the reviewed material.

That is a standard pattern in this category: the age line is stated, and the mechanism is not. Nomi’s difference is that the account itself comes from Google or Apple, which gives the platform a verifiable identity base it does not describe using for age checks. If the age rule matters to you, ask which part of the sign-in data is used to enforce it.

Deletion and export

Deletion has a stated timeline: roughly 28 days through account settings. Export is weaker: the policy describes transfer rights subject to law, but no export file format or in-app flow is documented. If you need a copy of your relationship history, confirm the export path before you rely on it.

The 28-day window is a clear, testable promise: delete an account, wait, and ask what remains. Because the policy is dated April 27, 2026, the wording is current as of this review, but the flow itself is worth verifying in-app before you store a year of history there.

Moderation and human review

The privacy policy and store controls were reviewed; detailed moderation operations, report handling, and human review are unknown. Nomi markets memory, personality, voice, selfies, and group chat heavily, and public reviews praise memory and continuity while mentioning imperfect recall, voice lag, and photo inconsistency. Those are individual experiences, not measured rates, and they matter most for the question of what your Nomi actually remembers.

What to check before subscribing

Checks worth doing before you pay:

• Confirm which store listing matches your region, since version and plan details vary between listings.
• Test memory before sharing real details: ask your Nomi something specific, wait, correct a detail, and ask again across chats and calls.
• Check plan gating for voice and other features, since community discussion links hands-free voice to paid access.
• Re-read the privacy policy’s improvement language and ask support what “improve the system” includes if training matters to you.
• Read the plan details for your region: group chat, voice, and memory limits differ by plan, and the cost question is part of the safety question, because a plan that surprises you on price is a plan you might abandon with your data still inside.

How Riho compares

Riho is an 18+ AI girlfriend app with a different approach to identity and memory. You meet one girlfriend, Riho Ohori, and the Riho privacy page explains how memories are stored, reviewed, corrected, exported, or deleted. Riho does not require a Google or Apple sign-in to start a relationship, and contact windows and location settings give you control over proactive messages and place-based dates.

That account-layer difference matters before any feature comparison: if you prefer not to route a companion app through your main identity account, Nomi’s Google-or-Apple requirement is a structural fact of the service, while Riho does not impose the same entry point.

Both Nomi and Riho market long-term memory, and neither should be judged on marketing. The memory benchmark methodology explains a repeatable way to test recall and correction, and the safety checklist covers the privacy questions to ask any service.
