Chai exists only as a phone app. Here is where the official versions are, how to tell them from fakes, and why “Chai premium APK” never does what it promises.

Mods and “premium APK”
Subscriptions, limits and ads are checked on the company's servers on every request. A modified APK can repaint the Premium button, but the server still knows there is no subscription. What a mod definitely changes is who gets access to your phone.
The main risk
A “premium APK” installs outside the store with normal app permissions: your chats, contacts and notifications go to the file's author, not Chai Research. The account can be terminated under the EULA.
Against HoneyChat
The case for Chai
Native apps in both stores with millions of downloads — familiar installation and updates.
The case for HoneyChat
Nothing to install: the chat opens in the browser on any device or in Telegram, with shared history. No registration.
