How to start a conversation on Candy AI
Choose one character and give the first exchange a purpose. A small scene or a direct question tells the character more than a greeting followed by several unrelated instructions.

From browsing to the first reply
- Pick a category or search for a character name.
- Read the description and note any separate feature badges.
- Set an adult fictional role and a situation in your opening message.
- Ask for a response style, such as brief dialogue or a narrated scene.
- Continue from the reply before changing the entire setup.
An opening you can adapt
Imagine two adults meeting at a photography exhibition. Ask the character which picture they would take home and why, then answer the question they put back to you. That creates an exchange instead of asking for a complete story in one turn.
If the answer is too elaborate, ask for two short lines next time. If a detail is lost, restate that one detail. Avoid treating every imperfect reply as a reason to reset the history.
Before moving into creation or paid media
Sign in with the same account method across devices. The free message allowance is shared across characters; opening another profile does not restart it.
Read the selected media action and any token charge before submitting. Keep text conversation, a generated picture and a prepared pack separate when evaluating what you want to use.
Common questions
What is a useful first Candy AI message?
Give the character a specific event or question and a preferred response style. For example, ask for a brief conversation about a shared visit to an exhibition.
Do I have to accept the character's opening scenario?
You can propose another lawful fictional setting. Keep the character identity and the new relationship clear so the next reply has a consistent starting point.
Why are my chats different after changing phones?
First confirm the sign-in provider and account email. A different registration can have another history even if you use the same browser.
Should I generate media before trying the conversation?
That is a separate choice. Trying a short conversation can help you decide on the character and scene before spending an image allowance or tokens.
How can I ask a character for a longer response?
Request descriptive narration or a few paragraphs and supply an event to develop. A focused scene is more useful than repeatedly asking for more text without adding context; no exact response length is guaranteed.
