I love the overall safety on here. I have never been contacted by anyone outside of my preferred age group and I feel like it is the perfect level of anonymity considering that we are all strangers who want to find a penpal. I do wish however to some day be able to stay in contact with more people without buying anything. I would also love to add more profile information regarding hobbies and other topics of interest. I would also love appreciate a language learning swap filter (for example, I want to learn Spanish and therefore would love to teach a person who knows Spanish my native tongue). Other than that I’m quite happy and I actually like how there is no app to directly contact people 24/7, since I feel like the whole point of having PenPals in 2026 is to not be available all the time and instead rewind for your new friends what happened over a span of time.
I have many pen friends and Im starting to learn a language now. I really enjoy it because I can meet them one day and because we get along its great. I was a bit nervous giving them my address but because of how safe it is everything was amazing. Overall 10/10 defo join
I love this website since I can easily find so many penpals! It’s easy to use and pretty safe which is great. The only thing I don’t like are the ads when using the site for free!
I originally came to this site in search of an Irish or Scottish penpal. Instead, I was contacted by a very interesting gal in Toronto, Canada! We wrote back and forth by email for over a year.
It is good as it gives the opportunity to meet people from other countries and find out more about foreign cultures
If this was an app it would be a lot easier to use and you would have even more people using it. Love it!
its really good i've made lots of friends but there are lots of banner ads blocking the screen and a lot of important words like the post received I can barely see anything there. ik u need money and I don't mind them too much, but pls at least lemme see the words. and pls lemme see more than the last 5 active conversations maybe 10 for free? then for more u get premuim? I want to talk to all my friends :( pls fix those things then u get 5 stars. Everything for free.
everything is fine. i don’t use this website very often but when i do i really enjoy it. people are a little introverted tho
I really enjoyed it, but I would like it better if there was a possibility to give out a mail point other than my address. It might be only because I don't know how to do it, though, i'm pretty new to penpalling. But, as a new penpaller, I really like this website because you can meet people a little more easily and safely than on social media, and there isn't the wait time before recieving the letter as for other penpalling apps.
A very good site, thank you. It should be mandatory for users to have a profile photo. Fix this. Let's make more than one smile. Çok iyi bir site elinize sağlık. Kullanıcıların profil fotosunun olması zorunlu olmali. Bunu düzeltin. Birde birden fazla smile atabilelim.
