Experiences
Choose your next Candy AI experience
Decide whether you want to exchange messages, request new media or explore a prepared experience in your account. Each format has its own purpose. Character support, access conditions, controls and any charges need to be checked for the option you choose.
Topics in this article
Start with a companion and a conversation
Choose a catalogue profile or a custom companion and bring a topic or fictional scene to chat. Introduce the role you play and the pace you prefer. Supported personas describe your side; memory options and branches serve separate purposes. None of these is an appearance-editing tool for the companion.

Check eligibility as well as your token balance
A text subscription and media tokens cover different uses. Review the membership conditions and balance required by the action you want, not just whether chat is open. Availability can also vary with the character, account, region and device you are using.
If an expected option is missing, first check that you have signed into the intended account. A character badge identifies an associated experience rather than granting universal access. Its absence from your controls does not by itself establish a service outage.
Use the formats that interest you
There is no need to use every medium. You can keep to written conversation with a catalogue character or make a custom companion. A still picture can remain a picture, and opening a profile does not oblige you to choose its other experiences.
Read the access terms and displayed token amount for each action before deciding to pay. Choose an allowance appropriate to your intended use; a purchase for a particular purpose does not remove the limits attached to other parts of the service.
Your questions
Does unlimited text also mean unlimited pictures and media?
No. Unlimited subscriber text access covers written chat, not unlimited media actions. Your plan's allowances, the selected feature's eligibility rules and any tokens required for that action remain separate conditions.
Should I choose video generation or a Shorts episode?
Use an available generation tool in your account to request a new clip. Choose Shorts when you want a prepared story: its episodes follow an existing script rather than a scene made from your individual request.
