A Candy AI alternative with photos and memory

Candy AI is one of the best-known AI girlfriend apps, with a big roster, photos, voice and video. Both apps let you try a few messages for free (Candy AI gives 5 in total; Naughty Chats gives 5 to start). Where Naughty Chats differs is memory you can see and edit, ready-made scenarios and plain pricing.

Here's an honest side-by-side, including where Candy AI is ahead.

Why people look for Candy AI alternatives

Some people want simpler pricing, or memory they can check and correct. Others want a different set of characters and a different writing style.

Where Candy AI is ahead

To be fair about it:

  • More media: voice messages, voice calls (in beta) and video, which we don't offer yet (live video calls are on the way).
  • More ways to pay, including Apple Pay, Google Pay and bank transfer.
  • A cheaper annual plan on its US pricing page.
  • Digital twins of real content creators, alongside its own characters.

Where Naughty Chats is different

Memory that isn't a black box: everything she remembers about you is listed in the chat, where you can edit or delete it. And characters with detailed scenarios, from a vampire countess to a snowed-in ski instructor, in realistic and anime styles. To try it, new accounts get 5 free messages.

When you want more, Premium (from $5 a month) makes messages unlimited, adds 3,000 tokens a month for photos and lets you create your own AI girlfriend.

Switching from Candy AI

Pick a girl with a similar vibe, or design your own. Tell her what you liked about your old companion in your first message, and she'll remember it. The AI sexting guide has tips for getting better replies from the start.
