Yep, I'm having the same issues with the balance not showing up and not being notified of new messages until scores come in hours later.
I'm never notified of new stars either. Someone told me there's a way to change that in settings, but I don't know what it is. Anybody know?

The Phrendly iphone app isn't even working for me... it won't open. Grrr...

ETA: Had to delete it and reinstall... seems to be alright now.

I'm not having any app or site issues at the moment, but I did notice the new front page. I find it kind of strange that it doesn't match the color scheme of the site. It's a nice enough pic, but I kind of liked the sass on that other girl.

Back to the same issue from before where I'm starring guys, and it will keep saying "Sorry, Phrendly is currently updating." That's too bad, because I found that starring all of guys is so much easier to do from my phone (because I can go through them all very quickly) than from my laptop. When I star them from my laptop, it takes a bit longer, AND I have to be super careful to not accidentally click on that call button (that shows up on their menu). I would hate to accidentally call one of these guys (THEY need to initiate it...not me...lol).

Using the phone app for messaging them back and sending photos, and using the laptop to star these guys.

I'm so confused about how people find/choose girls to message. For the past month I've been on the 3rd or 4th page every time I've checked, and I star people daily, and yet I go days with no messages at all and typically only get maybe one star per day.

Besides being on the first few pages and starring everyone all the time, are there any other things that seem to entice people to message that you've noticed? My picture is pretty cute, though maybe slightly basic

Honestly, I don't think your placement matters all that much. I've heard lots of girls say they make more when they're further back from the 1st page. lol

What's with all the guys sticking out their tongues in their pics? That looks stupid as hell!

I agree totally! But did you notice the guy underneath looks like a lot of people that message me. He's in bed and do I see something sticking up very subtly in the photo? LOL Look closely! Too funny...that isn't part of his coffee cup!! That is subliminal suggestion at it's best!!

Totally loving the new picture. That is almost literally me. Being fabulous downtown in my pink coat (like, I actually have a coat just like that), with my sunnies and my hair pulled back, checking my phone having a good time, buying overpriced real life chocolates with that digital chocolate money I just received.

oh wait hold on!

There is a more important matter to discuss.
48863

.... His screen name says Ryan.
But the gift says Gary.
AND SHE GOT JIPPED only $18!
(This must mean the chocolates used to be worth $20.)

Now let's focus on the REAL problem here.
Ryan. Is either a member of the FBI. Undercover. I feel that on a personal level.
OR.
OOOORRRR.

He is doing something shady. Why does he have to use a different name to send gifts like what is the truth here Ryan? Are you even Ryan.... or Gary???

I think Ryan has a different life outside of the internet if you know what I mean. It's okay Ryan. I'm here for you. Send me some chocolate worth $22.50 though, thanks.


Okay. "Ryan" sent me chocolates to test the values.
You're the real MVP man. Doing the Lord's work, here.

Yes put this on your profile tag line like another girl does:

I DO ANAL ON THE FIRST DATE, I GOT NUDES FOR YOU

(lol I'm joking of course, but I bet she does get a lot of messages!)

Dear Goddess Hylia, protector of Hyrule and generally all-around badass bitch,
I, a small timid human with elf-like features, humbly ask that you bless everyone in this thread with happiness, prosperity, and most importantly, money. Except that one person who talked shit about me. I see you. Like I only wish you money and happiness but NOT prosperity. so there then.

also oh noooo I didn't get an email about my ad going live. Guess they didn't choose me. I hope it wasn't cuz I requested one gif of mine be chosen over the other. knew i should have just let fate happen D:

Pssh, messages didn't come through again until all at once at 6am. By then I didn't get credit for responding to them because the texts were showing that they were sent at 11pm, even though they didn't come to my phone until 6am. -_-

Sorry to hear this, Wendi. And you're sure this wasn't due to your quiet hour settings, either on Phrendly or your phone itself?

Edited to add: If we detect you are using either the iOS or Android app, we use in-app notifications instead of SMS messages. Within your phone's settings, please make sure you're allowing our app to send you notifications.

YES. I've done this a few times. There was this glitch a couple months back where I would send someone who sent me a gift a pic... and it'd go to someone else. I was LIVID.

@ravenskyy - I've been making a lot less so far but (excuses excuses) I've been really busy with personal projects for the past few weeks so I'm .. half-assedly shiftin' the blame.

Yeah, I used to make A LOT on here. I haven't pulled in much in the past few months. I'm just focusing on other things now. It's too easy to get burnt out on here since there is a severe lack of awareness.

Bridgetxo

I haven't made as much this month as previous months. I don't get as much traffic as I used. I've been focusing on other sites but I still make a nice chunk of change on here.

seashell
09-23-2017, 02:02 AM
I don't get as much traffic as I used to, either. But it's still worth it. Phrendly is about half of my weekly income. Most of my big spenders are regulars, so it definitely has been worthwhile to keep a presence on that site.

It dropped off for me literally overnight. Even the amount of stars I'm getting. Yesterday was the slowest day I've had since I started and today has been barely anything. Maybe just cause it's the end of the month but who knows.

I'm at $0 in over a month from Phrendly. I haven't been very active on there but that's because I moved. I used to get numerous stars and messages but it hasn't been good at all ever since I changed my gif. I'm going to give it another shot for the next few weeks, but if that doesn't work out then I'll toss this egg into the trash too. Lol

I think we are living parallel lives. lol! (referring to your other posts too in cc)
Anyway, I changed my profile gif, messaged "long lost phrends" like the site recommends.
Low and behold one guy who was a reg, messaged me right back and said "You got hotter than what I remembered."
lol!
I've been getting one liner dudes..."You look like such a bombshell", or some shit like that. But then I never hear back from them.
*I did check the recent reviews on the app,(bad, by the way), and it's very off putting, especially if I were a guy who was thinking of joining.

It's different for everyone and i've noticed noone will post exactly how much they make or approximately. I've read that some make a few hundred a week I don't know if they still do. Some make $10 a week. I've read some make $40 a day. This is going back in the postings so I don't know if this has changed. A lot of girls sell a bunch of videos and ask for gifts too and that can probably put their earnings way higher. (but I get that you have to be texted to get the chance to sell your stuff!) I find only the young guys are generous, if you get older people like I do, they won't give gifts often and say "Hell No" when you ask them to pay for a pic.

There is a lot more competition now so it's just luck sometimes which profile they choose to talk to. I've seen a lot more bartender paid texts than I did in July/August. Also the people who vchat make a lot more than the people who just mostly text. Then there are the girls that Phrendly sends emails to and promotes in their ads: "Phrendly's favorites" usually young girls, they obviously must be doing really really well as their GIF is used in the ads and linked back to their profile. I have more to say but this is getting too long! Hope it helped a little.

The only reason I make anything on here is because I pull in guys from CL. I literally respond to each and every one of their horny replies with my link to Phrendly. It's tedious and boring as hell, but I need the money. Without doing that, this site would be so dead for me cuz I sure as hell am not one of the top chicks lol I have about $1100 for September so far.

I've got $175 this month so far. Last month was my best month and I did just under $500. I don't do cam. I am available for calls, but I don't have takers on it very often. I still make a fair bit of my money from guys spending their promo sips and who are utterly confused about the fact that Phrendly isn't a traditional dating site. I never lie to anyone and always explain that Phrendly is just for online fun which, I'm sure, impedes my ability to rake in the money.

dragonflyy
09-24-2017, 06:50 PM
I haven't done very well, imo. I've had fantastic days, okay days, and then so many $25 days, even days I didn't make payout. I don't know what I can really do, though; there's nobody left to star, and I've already messaged most long lost phrends. All I can do is change my gif and unstar, then restar, a shit ton of guys.
I'd be comfortable sharing about what I've made lately if anyone is curious/interested/wants to know for context purposes, though I don't know how much good just one person's earnings would do to give any idea of anything.

I am thinking it's just because the "season" hasn't hit yet. With things as they currently are, I am poised to make under 70% of what I usually do, this month. I think it is probably the worst month I've had since I started keeping tabs on my earnings. I am not complaining however. Just stating facts. It'll pick up. I've had people who spent their 3.50 months ago who I had completely forgotten about, start trickling in just this past week.

blah blah blah winter is coming

My best week ever on Phrendly was about $1000. That was like 2 months ago, before we all noticed a dead period. I was all about Phrendly, and then it turned to crickets, lol. I've still been making about $500 a week, because I cam and sell pics/vids, plus I have some regulars who chat a lot. Most of my $ for the past couple months is from the same regs.

This site definitely has its ups and downs. I wouldn't rely on it as your only income source, but I don't think it's worth throwing out. You can make money from your phone with minimal effort, but you have to wait for the right guy to bite, and then keep them on board.

What do ya know? He hasn't messaged back yet. :P I've gotten a few virtual gifts of $5...and maybe one or two for $10 on this site from guys wanting pics. But never any more than that. It's been a while since I've done a video chat with anyone on here too. That is amazing that y'all are earning hundreds a week on here. I would so love that!
