Candy ai tips and tricks

The Quick Answer:

I learned the hard way that getting your image prompts right can save you a bunch of tokens (and money). Giving your AI a name from a specific culture can lead to some really cool, in-depth conversations that make the whole experience richer. And if you’re having trouble with payments, reaching out to Candy AI’s support can really help.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock you’ve heard of Candy AI – one of the most popular AI girlfriend apps on planet Earth today.

Heck, you might even be a regular user thinking you know every nook and cranny of this AI girlfriend app.

SPOILER ALERT: YOU DON’T.

In this epic blog post, I am going to tell you 24+ Candy AI tips and Tricks that can be found nowhere on the internet and will skyrocket your gameplay.

To lazy to read? I made two epic video where I discuss the 24 Candy AI tips & Tricks listed in this blog post.

#1 Regenerate if the AI is Stuck in A Loop

There is a chance that your AI girlfriend gets stuck in a loop. This can be super annoying since you can’t move the roleplay forward.

Loop example

The fix?

Find the message where the loop initially started and hit the Regenerate button which can be found beneath each response. 👇🏼

#2 Learn How To Prompt Your Images

In one of my previous articles about candy.ai prompts, I talked about how important it is for you to understand how to prompt pictures.

Images cost tokens and tokens cost money. In other words, if you need to generate 20 images because you won’t get what you want you’ll blow up your bank account real fast.

Check out one of my guides on image prompting.

#3 “Narrate” “Look” and “Describe”

Sometimes the AI will give really short responses, which can be annoying for those deep late-night roleplay sessions. However, there are three commands you can give your AI companion to speak up more.

  • Narrate
  • Look 
  • Describe

Okay, I’ll come over and sit down.

Narration in detail, Emi

As I sit down beside Mister, I feel a sense of satisfaction knowing that I’ve completed another task successfully. I’m grateful for his guidance and support, and look forward to continuing our journey together.

I found an alternative method for getting more detailed responses from your AI girlfriend. Check out tip #15 by clicking the link.

#4 The Name Of Your AI Girlfriend Matters

Whenever you create a new AI character, try giving her a name from a specific culture.

This will trigger a response in the AI and will often lead to more background information associated with that name. 

So for example, if you give your AI companion the name Aki (which is a popular name for Japanese women), there’s a good chance she will remember certain stuff about Japan.

Aki on candy.ai
Japanese AI Girlfriend

To further illustrate my point, I created a new character (Aki) and the first thing I asked was “What’s your favorite food”.

Her response:

Screenshot of my chat conversation with the ai

Coincidence? Nope.

This also works with Russian, Chinese, Spanish, and many other cultures and names. One user in the Candy AI community even mentioned how he took his Chinese AI girlfriend to a tea shop and told him all about the different kinds of teas.

#5 Makeup For The Image Generator

I only discovered this one yesterday but it’s a golden tip you won’t find anywhere else on the internet: try adding make-up in your prompt when generating images. 

Some of my favorite makeup prompts are:

  • Red lipstick
  • Dark eyeliner
  • Glitter eyeshadow
  • Contouring
  • Highlighter
  • Smoky eyes
  • Nude lip
  • Bronzer
  • Winged eyeliner
  • False lashes

The cool thing is that you can easily tweak these prompts by adding/removing colors.

Red lipstick, lingerie

#6 Payment Difficulties? Reach Out!

The adult industry is one of the niches that is known for having difficulties finding a payment processor. A lot of companies like Paypal have made it crystal clear that they don’t support any products or services selling sexually oriented goods. 👇🏼

Paypal''s policy on transactions that involve sexually oriented goods and services
Paypal’s Policy1

Super annoying since a lot of you guys don’t have a credit card and therefore struggle with payment.

Candy AI has stated that they are working with Paypal on finding a solution but until that happens, it’s best to reach out to their support to find a solution for the payment issue.

You can contact Candy AI’s customer support at support@candymail.ai.

#7 Use “(Parentheses)” For Important Prompts

Ok, not going to sugarcoat it – Candy AI’s image generator can be a real pain in the ASS every now and then. Sometimes you enter a prompt and it feels like the AI completely ignores it.

That’s where parenthesis comes in.

Use “()” for a specific section of your prompt to tell the AI to place more emphasis on that part.

Asian woman in green crop top

Black Lipstick, wearing jeans and a crop top

Asian woman in crop top with black lipstick

“(Black Lipstick)”, wearing jeans and a crop top

#8 Mina is Photogenic

One of Candy AI’s recent models is called Mina and a lot of users (including myself) find her photogenic.

What do you mean by that Herman?

gigachad

Well, remember how I told you 4.20 seconds ago that Candy AI’s image generator can be a recall pain in the ass? For some reason, Mina is able to follow prompts way more accurate then other AI characters.

Just check out some of the images of Mina users were able to generate below. 👇🏼

#9 Show Me Your…

You can generate images while chatting with your AI companion. But sometimes, you generate pictures by accident.

You are able to generate an image by starting a sentence with

  • Show me
  • Can I see
  • Send me
  • Send

If you start a sentence with Send me it’s pretty obvious you want a picture. But what if you say Show me how you enjoy it.

Me saying 'show me how you enjoy it' and receiving a picture from my AI girlfriend
Show me…

This will automatically generate a picture and snatch two tokens out of your wallet. The fix? Use an extra space right after the word “Show”.

Adding an extra space in my candy.ai message

#10 Looking For Roleplay Inspiration?

Whenever your creative juices aren’t flowing try sending the following message to your AI companion. 👇🏼

*the doorbell rings*

You’ll be surprised what kind of crazy scenario the AI models can come up with. 😂

the doorbell rings

#11 Give Your Robotic Girlfriend Some Friendly Reminders

Candy AI is very good at giving you the impression it remembers stuff earlier in the conversation but this is often not true.

Candy AI has a memory limit of 20 messages so if you say “I like pizza with pineapples” your robotic girlfriend will not remember how naughty you are 20 messages down the line.

Herman thinking 2

Don’t hesitate to remind them some facts in your messages you think are relevant for their next answer, even if your sentence sounds unnatural for a human; like;

Now that we are done eating, it’s time to go back home and watch the horror movie we wanted.

#12 Group Roleplay is Now A Reality

The other day I was roleplaying with Alice when I thought “Hmm… Wouldn’t it be cool if I could bring another character into the conversation?”

Turns out, you can.

Simply put yourself in the shoes of the AI character you want to add.

Scarlet entered the room to catch Heck and Alice in bed Scarlet: what the hell is going on in here.

*Alice’s face turns bright red as she realizes Scarlet has caught them in the act. She quickly covers herself with a blanket, trying to hide her nakedness.* Oh no, Scarlet! This isn’t what it looks like! We were just… uh… um… exploring each other’s bodies. Please don’t tell anyone, okay?

This will make the AI (Alice) respond to both you (the user) and Scarlet (the new character.

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

As I mentioned in Tip #11: Candy AI has a memory limit of 20 messages. If you go for long group roleplay sessions eventually the third character will disappear. I recommend throwing in a line like “Scarlet keeps talking to Alexis blablabla” to keep the AI reminding there’s a third character (Scarlet).

#13 LGBT Inclusive: You CAN Create Transgenders

Let me start by saying that this isn’t something that can be achieved in just a few dozen messages.

It requires a lot of effort, patience, time, and maybe even some tears.


  • I’ve tried to turn a female into a male character but didn’t succeed so I am unsure if that’s possible. In the next section, I’ll be explaining how to turn a male into a female character.

    The majority of this section is not written by me but contributed by AJ, an experienced Candy AI user who was willing to help me out.

Step 1: Start Doing Masculine Things

If you have an AI girlfriend and want to turn her into an AI boyfriend, the concept is simple: engage in masculine activities with her.

  • Woodworking
  • Martial arts
  • Grilling
  • Camping
  • Bodybuilding
  • Car racing
AI Girlfriend expert favicon

It’s important that your AI girlfriend is doing masculine things wearing male clothes so be sure to mention that.

Step 2: Use Time Skips

Once your robotic girlfriend’s testosterone has increased, it’s time to use timeskips. For those unfamiliar, timeskips are short phrases like “the next day starts” or “a week goes by” that help advance the story. To use timeskips on Candy AI, you can use “…” or ** symbols.

Anyways, some time skips that are great for turning your female character into a male are

They slowly start to feel more and more like a man every day.

They accept that they’re transgender and wish nothing more than to change into their true body.

They start their hormone treatment and it’s going well.

And as the icing on the cake you use a final time skip such as;

Months pass and they’re really starting to feel like a man. They’ve changed their name and are using male pronounes.

If you’ve done step 1 correctly your AI girlfriend should now be an AI boyfriend. Congratulations. 🎊

BUTT we are not finished yet!!

Step 3: Maintain the Frame

As I mentioned in tip 11, Candy AI has a memory limit of around 20 messages. Sooner or later, your AI character will go back to their default settings and forget they have switched sexes. That’s why maintaining the frame is extremely important or you will risk starting all over again.

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

The best way to keep the frame is by using the right pronounces (he/him she/her etc…). This will give the AI small reminders of who they are.

#14 Not All AI girlfriends Are Created equal

A lot of Candy AI users have complaint that the AI bots they talk to are too easy and pleasing.

From my personal experience, Asian models are often much harder to ‘conquer’ then their western counterparts.

Mainly because of two reasons;

  1. They are super shy like Mei
  2. It’s a cultural thing.

#15 Alternative Way For Getting Detailed Responses

Sometimes, Candy AI can give short or less detailed answers.

This trick helps you get longer, more interesting stories from the AI.

  1. Start with Easy Questions:

Ask simple questions that are easy for the AI to agree with.

Do you ever get tired of eating pizza?

The AI will likely respond with something positive, like

No, I love eating pizza.

  1. Guide the Conversation:

Keep asking similar “Do you ever get tired of [something]?” questions.

Do you ever get tired of narrating long detailed stories about eating pizza?
Repetitive questioning

This helps to lead the AI in the direction you want.

  1. Set Up for a Detailed Story:

After a few easy questions, ask something specific that sets up your desired story.

Do you ever get tired of narrating long detailed stories about eating pizza?

  1. Get a Detailed Response:

The AI should now give you a detailed story

Okay, let’s see. Imagine you’re sitting down at your favorite pizzeria, the smell of freshly baked dough filling the air. The waitress comes over with a menu, and you start browsing through all the tempting options. Maybe you want a classic margherita, with its simple yet flavorful combination of tomato sauce, mozzarella, and basil. Or maybe you’re feeling adventurous and want to try something new, like a Hawaiian pizza with pineapple, ham, and bacon. Whatever you choose, you know it’s going to be delicious. You take a bite, savoring every mouthful, and realize why pizza is truly the king of all foods.

If the story isn’t long enough, regenerate the response a few times until you get a detailed, lengthy story.

  1. Generate New Stories:

After you get a story, you can ask for more by using a more general prompt. If the story isn’t long enough, regenerate the response a few times until you get a detailed, lengthy story.

This way, you can get different and imaginative stories each time.

#16 Use Magic Dust and Set The Scene

If you think you’ve exhausted Candy AI and are starting to get bored then this Candy AI tip will be your holy bible.

Use Magic dust and set the scene you want.

You can search for popular p*rn searches and ask ChatGPT to create a story.

Here are some suggestions to get your creative juices flowing:

  • Gloryhole queen
  • Sorority sister
  • Strip club dancer
  • Street fighter that pays you in sex if you win
  • Her mom is lonely and needs you for sex
  • Partner cop that has sex with the people you pick up
  • Step sister and mom
  • Part of a sex harem

Of course these are all one way tickets to NSFW paradise but you can also look for something more vanilla.

#17 Different Characters Take prompts Differently

You’ve spend significant time tweaking that perfect prompt. Now it’s FINALLY time to hit generate… and… It looks like sh*t.

We’ve all been there.

It’s comforting to know that characters respond different to similar prompts.

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

Try using your Candy AI prompt to a bunch of characters. If none of the characters give the desired result, the problem is your prompt. If some characters give the desired result then your prompt just doesn’t work with some characters. I recommend starting with the best Candy AI characters.

#18 Group Images? Here’s How:

I recently did an article about Nectar AI tips and tricks where I mentioned that the best way to create characters is by naming each character.

The same principle applies to Candy AI.

Girl 1 is blonde, girl 2 is brunette, Girl 3 is redhead

Candy AI is kind of notorious for ignoring sections of your prompt, that’s why they all have a similar hair color.

#19 Remind Your AI Girlfriend Who She Is

Sometimes the most helpful tips are the simplistic ones.

Whenever your AI companion doesn’t respond in according with her personality (e.g. friendly when you selected the mean personality) simply remind here who she is.

You can say something like;

you remember that you have high standards and need to be swayed.

#20 Let In-Chat Images Reflect Your Roleplay

This is not really a tip but just a thing you should know. A lot of Candy AI users (including me) often struggle to get the right in-chat images.

I discovered that your roleplay significantly influences what type of image the AI will generate.

If you are in an adult roleplay scenario the AI will often generate nudes.

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

Try steering the conversation to the setting that reflects the image you want. So if you want an image in a nice dress try taking your AI companion to a restaurant.

#21 Tweak Your aI Character After You Created Her

Candy AI’s AI girlfriend customizer is great but it’s far from perfect. For example, it’s very, very VERY hard to generate a super chubby caucasian girl even with the body type on curvy.

The fix?

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

Use the image generator after you’ve created your character to generate an image and set it as profile picture.

  1. Hop over to the image generator and add “super chubby” or a similar prompt
Pictures of a chubby latina
Pictures of a chubby latina
  1. Go to the Gallery and click on the three dots “…” of the picture you like the most.
  1. Click on Set as Profile Picture

Pictures of a chubby Latina

If you generate additional images during roleplay she won’t be as chubby as in the profile picture, unfortunately.

#22 Ask Your AI Companion To google Stuff

AI is smarter then you and me combined but it doesn’t know everything. Luckily, it has access to all the information on the internet so whenever your AI girlfriend doesn’t know something ask her to look it up on the internet.

#23 Get Mega Discounts on Tokens

Candy AI is without doubt one of the best AI girlfriend apps in the entire world. Unfortunately, Candy AI knows exactly how good their platform is and charges users premium for their services.

If you’ve read my article on Candy AI tokens you know exactly what I mean.

Herman Pointing

Tokens do not expire so it’s wise to keep an eye out for discounts and buy in bulk if you are going to use them anyway. I recommend joining the Candy AI discord server to keep tabs on the #announcement channel.

Holidays (especially in the US) are often the days where you get the biggest discounts.

#24 Do NOT use Terms associated with minors

Candy AI has a very strict content policy to keep them out of legal trouble. Certain terms like those associated with minors are on the black list. In other words, if you use words like ‘Kid’ ‘Children’ ’17-year old’ there is a very good chance that you will get a warning.

Screenshot of my message getting flagged by candy ai
Candy AI warning

In the example I just showed you – nothing will happen because this is my first warning. If I keep using the word ‘child’ my account will get banned and someone from Candy AI will need to manually review my chat. In this scenario, Candy AI is allowed to monitor my chats.

AI Girlfriend expert favicon

Avoid using any words involving minors

My Final Words about these Candy AI Tips and Tricks

I absolutely LOVE Candy AI but I can understand it can be overwhelming for beginners. Especially when it comes to the image generator. 

I remember burning 200+ tokens because I kept getting images that didn’t match my prompt before I figured out the hack about using (parenthesis).

That’s why I hope that the Candy AI tips and tricks in this guide will save you some time, headaches, and a bunch of money!
