Experiencing Persistent Issues and Error Loops in v0

Feedback
1

I’m hitting a pretty frustrating roadblock with v0, specifically an ongoing error loop within one of my chat sessions. While I’ve had some good experiences with the program, this particular problem has really eaten up a lot of my time and credits.

The core of the issue started when I tried a relatively simple instruction to refine existing settings (related to version 35). Instead of things improving, v0 got stuck in a cycle of errors. Every time I tried to fix one, a new one seemed to pop up, making it really hard to make any progress.

Despite numerous attempts, including using verbal prompts, I haven’t been able to get the system to fully recover. Although the prompt itself seemed to be processed, the broader project was negatively impacted, with elements like my section menu and styling disappearing or being corrupted. What’s particularly concerning is that I’m unable to revert to previous versions, specifically version 35, even when I’ve instructed it to do so.

This situation has led to considerable frustration. I’ve spent an estimated $15 or more in credits trying to get the system to fix problems that, from my perspective, it created itself. It’s challenging to be charged for the system generating errors and then subsequently spending more to try and rectify them. On top of that, I’ve received a warning about exceeding the context window, suggesting I start a new chat. This raises a question about whether starting a new chat means losing all the progress, context, and credits I’ve already invested in the current session.

I’ve recorded a video demonstrating these issues, which you can view here: Watch - Screencastify

I’m hoping to get some guidance on:

  • How to resolve the current error loop and the corruption within my project.
  • The best way to get my project back to a functional state, ideally by reverting to version 35.
  • Any strategies to prevent these kinds of persistent, unfixable error loops in the future.

I appreciate any insights or assistance the community can offer to help me navigate these challenges.

Thanks,

I just figured out how to actually restore a previous version manually by clicking the restore button on that version creation in the chat history. Hopefully, this helps me get back on track!

Another update: after restoring the version that was stable. I gave a new prompt to implement another function. It implemented that function, but again took away other content and functions that was previously in the code/preview.

After all day working in the chat and now almost $70 (I’m confident the majority of that is from error responses), the chat is broken. I can’t access it from any device.

It’s the weirdest feeling to use something with so much promise but to be filled with so many issues and be charged for those issues.

Hi, Chris!

Thanks so much for your detailed feedback. I’ll pass this onto the v0 team as we continue to make improvements to our product.

Feel free to continue sharing any roadblocks here, we’d love to report them!

Thank you, Pauline.

I had to abandon this chat because I could not get the issues to resolve. This is after spending over 16 hours and over $70.

I discovered one of those resources yesterday and it was very helpful. I will check out the other one.

Despite the issues I’ve had, I’m excited to learn.

I plan to prepare one more update for this post and I’m hoping will be helpful to the developers.

Thanks again!
