Etiquette
How to talk about, and to, an AI companion — with partners, with friends, and with the app itself.
AI girlfriend app gifts: what the affection bar buys
The gift menu usually arrives before the paywall does. What it sells is a number that goes up, and what that number gates is most of the decision about paying.
Taking a break from an AI girlfriend app
Three systems keep score while you are away, and only one of them is the conversation. What a break actually costs on each, and the one store feature that makes stepping away reversible.
AI girlfriend app paywall prompts: who is asking
The upgrade card no longer waits at the edge of the screen. It arrives inside the conversation, phrased by the character, which is exactly why it is worth reading as a product decision rather than a request.
Multiple AI girlfriend characters: what it costs
Running a second character is nobody's business but yours. It still costs you a slot, a share of the memory, and half the free week you were using to decide whether to pay.
AI girlfriend app free tier rules: what you can do
Sitting on a free tier indefinitely is fine. Restarting the trial with a second email, or splitting one login with a friend, is the part that ends the account and wrecks your test.
AI girlfriend app etiquette: the unwritten rules
The questions that hold people back are rarely technical. Who do you have to tell, what will get your account closed, and whose details should never go into a chat.
