Recent history, both apps

2026-10-03 DreamGF — DreamGF's membership policy has gained a clause since our July capture: accepting the special offer '+100 instant tokens and +100 tokens every month' means 'you will not be able to cancel your membership for the next 30 days'. The policy's effective date still reads 1 June 2023. Prices, the renewal at $25.99 a month and the $1.99 Maintenance Charge clause are unchanged. (dreamgf.ai membership policy and pricing pages, compared with our 2026-07-07 capture)
2026-10-02 Candy AI — Monthly plan now has an intro price: 'First month billed as $9.99', then 'renews monthly at $13.99', with 'Then $13.99/month' printed on the plan card. It still read $13.99 from the first month on 09-27. Yearly ($47.88) and 3-month ($26.97) unchanged and still renew at the same price and term. (candy.ai/subscriptions (US read, 2026-10-02; tracker snapshots 2026-09-25 and 2026-10-02; recheck 2026-09-27))
2026-09-22 Candy AI — Pricing verified at the source: the ladder is unchanged ($13.99 / $26.97 a quarter / $47.88 a year, each renewing at the same price). A free account gets 5 messages in total, one custom character and one image. New details: a subscription refund is refused once more than 20 tokens are used, even inside the 24-hour window; a help center article (August 25) says cancelling keeps your tokens while the terms say they expire; and two Google Play apps named 'Candy AI' come from a developer whose name uses Cyrillic look-alike letters, not from EverAI, which has no app. (candy.ai subscriptions page (US), terms of service, help center, App Store and Google Play searches, read 2026-09-22)
2026-09-22 Candy AI — Privacy answer rewritten (first seen 09-22; the Internet Archive still shows the old one on 09-16), and Terms revised September 22. The homepage FAQ 'Is chatting with an AI Girlfriend private and secure?' used to say Candy 'uses end-to-end encryption to keep all AI GF conversations safe and confidential' and that 'Your data is never shared or sold'; it now says Candy uses 'industry-standard security measures, including encrypting data in transit using TLS 1.2+ protocols' and points to the Privacy Notice. The end-to-end claim and the never-sold line are gone, and so are the lines about controlling your chat history and two-factor authentication. The Terms of Service revision date moved August 17 → September 22, 2026, adding one clause: selected users may be offered 'rebates in bonus tokens equal to a percentage of tokens spent, subject to specified minimum spending thresholds', i.e. a spend-more loyalty rebate. (candy.ai homepage FAQ + candy.ai/terms-of-service, tracker snapshots 2026-09-11 and 2026-09-22 (US vantage), Internet Archive 2026-09-16 and 2026-09-24, re-checked 2026-09-27)
2026-09-11 Candy AI — Homepage rebuilt around Candy Shorts: the long 'best AI girlfriend app' copy, the 'Create your own AI Girlfriend' block and the 7-day-trial paragraph are gone; the page now leads with a Shorts rail ('New episodes coming out every week', Watch Now), a 'SALE 70% OFF' banner and 'Meet her now!' CTAs, and the footer notes a fully localized French version of the site. CrakRevenue lists 'CandyShorts' as its own $50 PPS offer (was $60 on 07-31), i.e. Shorts is being marketed as a separate product. Pricing page re-read the same day: the ladder lines are unchanged since 08-21. (candy.ai homepage + pricing page, tracker snapshots 2026-08-21 → 2026-09-11 (US vantage), verified live 2026-09-11; CrakRevenue offer board 2026-09-11)
2026-08-17 Candy AI — Terms of Service revised (revision date moved July 30 → August 17, 2026): new backup-payment-method clause — any payment method you add or pay with becomes the default for future renewals, and if a renewal charge to the default method fails, EverAI may charge a designated backup method 'for the same amount and on the same terms'; also now states 'By subscribing, you authorize EverAI to charge your payment method unless you cancel autorenewal'. Subscription ladder unchanged on the US-served page ($13.99 / $8.99 / $3.99 per month; weekly $5.60 and bi-weekly $9.79 plans still listed). (candy.ai/terms-of-service 'Date of Revision: August 17, 2026' + candy.ai/subscriptions, both re-checked 2026-08-21)
2026-07-07 DreamGF — Membership policy receipt: a discretionary $1.99/mo 'Maintenance Charge' can be applied 'at any time' to accounts of users who previously purchased, to 'keep user accounts active'; the stated alternative is deleting your account and data. Refunds are voided by any feature use; vouchers discount the first period only. (dreamgf.ai/membership-policy)
2026-07-07 DreamGF — Checkout (/plans) vs pricing policy (/pricing) disagree: checkout advertises 150 tokens/mo with premium, the pricing policy says 100; the pricing policy also has its Monthly and 3-Month plan labels swapped (standing since at least 07-06), and the checkout's 'limited time offer' countdown sat at 0:00:00. (dreamgf.ai/plans + /pricing, side-by-side)
2026-07-07 DreamGF — Operator confirmed: DreamAI SRL, Bucharest, Romania (Trade Registry J40/12952/2023, incorporated 2023), also operating eHentai.ai, DreamBF.ai and JustPorn.ai per the site's own AI-Network footer.

Every plan renews at the same price and term — no intro-vs-renewal trap. Premium includes 100 tokens/mo. UK-geo pricing uses the same numerals in GBP (£13.99 vs $13.99, ~27% more). (candy.ai/subscriptions)
2026-07-06 Candy AI — Terms check: 24-hour refund window on subscriptions and token packs (card purchases only — crypto final); tokens expire at end of billing period on cancellation and are not restored on resubscribe; characters can be de-listed at sole discretion without refunds; EU/UK 14-day withdrawal applies to initial purchase only, prorated.
