Candy AI – V2 Character Showcase
Into anime? You’ll find a well-drawn lineup of anime-style partners ready to explore.

The search is pretty basic—you can filter by gender or character type, but if you're looking for specific traits, you'll have to scroll through manually.

Candy AI - Limited Search Tools
Kindroid
You start by entering your basic information.

Kindroid - Onboarding
Then you'll see a curated selection of characters.

Kindroid – Realistic characters
Kindroid offers hundreds of AI girlfriends across three main categories:
- Realistic
- Anime-style
- Fantasy characters

Kindroid - Fantasy characters
However, the character selection layout isn’t the best—you’ll need to explore the library to find your perfect match.
Want a sci-fi companion? Use the filter. Looking for specific personality traits? The keyword search helps you find exactly what you're after.

Kindroid - Search characters
Characters have social media-style feeds. Create one for your own or explore others. Follow, read posts, and you can send messages to them.

- Pick from their photo collection
- Upload your image
- Create one using AI prompts.

Kindroid – Girlfriend customization options
You can also choose your AI's gender, but that's where the physical customization ends. No tweaking height, features, or body type.

My girlfriend was reserved at first, responding with short, natural messages rather than essay-length declarations of love
During my tests, she was aware of our location—whether we were grabbing coffee at a cozy café or taking a stroll in the park.

The catch? If you're seeking instant romantic gratification, look elsewhere. Candy.ai aims for authentic & slow development, just like in real life.

And yes, there are limitations – the cramped message box can't be resized, which can be frustrating when you want to send a longer message.

When you share your concerns, your girl will listen genuinely and respond in a way that feels heartfelt and gently vulnerable.

Sometimes your girl's responses will be so brief, you won't be sure how to follow up — luckily, the built-in response helper steps in and saves the day.

Kindroid – Brief Answers

Fair warning: you'll notice some quirks. Your girlfriend tends to fall back on phrases like "I don't know" and "I guess" more often than you'd expect.

Kindroid – Repetitive expressions in chat

Romantic chats fit her character well, but they may be a bit flat if you expect a more confident or passionate style.

My girl didn't dive straight into NSFW territory. Instead, we built natural chemistry through conversations.

What stood out was how consistently my girlfriend stuck to her personality. There were no abrupt shutdowns, but no over-the-top behavior either—just a steady, believable tone.

My girl would dive into role-play and fantasy chat, but I didn’t get anything explicit until after I’d broken the ice.

My girl kept things spicy but tasteful. No explicit content here - instead, you get suggestive teasing and flirty banter.

During the tests, my girl showed that she can handle everything from light flirting to deeper fantasy scenarios. But it's not all smooth sailing. Sometimes you can't tell if the girl is speaking or describing actions, which breaks immersion.

And while my girlfriend was eager to play along, she often skipped foreplay and jumped straight to the action.

When she took her time, though, the build-up and engagement are spot-on.

Image Generation
Candy.ai | Kindroid |
---|---|
4.3/5(Very Good) Highly realistic and visually stunning images. | 4.2/5(Very Good) High-quality, consistent, and realistic images with minor flaws and slow generation. |
Candy.ai
Candy AI offers two ways to generate images:
- In-chat generation: Click the Ask button and type your prompt—simple and fast.
- Dedicated image creator: A separate tool with more control—perfect for detailed customization.

Candy AI - In-Chat Image Generation
The Dedicated Image Creator gives you full control over every detail:
- Character selection: Choose from the full roster (no filters or search) or use your custom character.
- Prompt suggestions: Quickly add details like action, outfit, pose, accessories, and scene.
- Free text prompt: Write your own prompt for complete creative freedom.
- Number of images: Generate anywhere from 1 to 64 images.

Candy AI - Image Generator
Image Quality: Whether you choose the Standard or V2 model, you’ll receive crisp, high-quality images that perfectly match your character’s look and personality.
I tested both standard characters and those with the V2 engine— here’s how they compare.
V2 Engine Character Images:
Standard Engine Character Images:
The Standard engine already outperforms most competitors, but the V2 engine takes realism and quality even further. If visuals matter to you, it’s worth the extra cost.
Kindroid
I've tested it extensively, and the photo quality is genuinely impressive.
While each set of generated images is internally consistent, some AI glitches are still present.
Want a group photo? The generator can create one.

Kindroid - Group selfies
Standard image generation can take up to several minutes, especially for multiple photos.

Kindroid - Queue delay
There’s an NSFW toggle, but even when it’s off, some images may still include mature or nude content.
Video Generation
Candy.ai | Kindroid |
---|---|
3.6/5(Good) Good overall quality, though there are some minor AI-generated quirks. | 3.9/5(Good) Impressive videos with realistic details, though they show some noticeable glitches. |
Candy.ai
The videos look nice, featuring smooth animations and high-quality resolution that really bring the characters to life.
But let’s be real—you’ll notice some obvious AI quirks, like characters sometimes moving unnaturally or with awkward motions.
However, there’s a drawback: you can’t choose what appears. You can only click to create a moving video, and the app generates a random animation from your picture.

Candy AI - Video Generation
Want NSFW content? You can only unlock pregenerated videos of your girl—they’re usually 1–2 minutes long but cost 2–5 times your monthly fee per video.
Kindroid
The app creates videos that match your girlfriend's photos perfectly, maintaining consistent looks and features throughout. The movements are smooth and natural-looking, though currently without sound or speech.
However, some of the videos have noticeable AI glitches that are hard to miss.
Voice Generation
Candy.ai | Kindroid |
---|---|
3.1/5(Good) Functional but lacks natural warmth. | 3.2/5(Good) Voice feels robotic with limited emotion - more audiobook than girlfriend. |
Candy.ai
The voice is clear and easy to understand, making it suitable for basic interaction. However, it works, it doesn’t sound natural or warm—more like a simple, artificial voice.
Is it usable? Yes. Is it natural? No. If you’re fine with that and don’t expect the feel of a real conversation, it should be good enough.
Kindroid
The voice sounds robotic in regular chats. There's no sugar-coating here – it's pretty obvious that the tone is artificial. The voice also contains the narrative, which adds to the strange effect, making it sound somewhat off.
During flirty conversations, the girl tries to add emotion, but it comes across more like an audiobook narrator than a genuine companion.
Safety & Privacy
Candy.ai | Kindroid |
---|---|
3.2/5(Good) Lacks clear encryption details and transparency. | 4/5(Good) Solid encryption with no data selling, but bank statement shows app name. |
Candy.ai
The policy does not specify whether your chat messages are encrypted during transmission or stored.
They collect your data, including chat logs and any content you create.
However, they don't clearly explain how that data is protected, so be mindful of what personal information you share.

Candy AI bank statement
On your bank statement, charges will appear under the name "Everai."
Kindroid
Kindroid encrypts all your conversations. They store your chat history, voice messages, and avatar settings. And unlike most apps, they don't sell your data to advertisers.

Kindroid - Bank statement
Your bank statement will show 'Kindroid AI' - making it easy to recognize.
