It’s a really good website and super easy to finish people to talk to!But the only issue is the communication, you have to constantly refresh the website just to see if you’ve had a message or not and I get you can use emails but it’s still a pain to go on emails every single time I’m wondering if I’ve gotten a message back.And then it’s also very annoying when people don’t reply because their account has been inactive for a while but it doesn’t state that anywhere or suddenly alert the person in a better way that a have a message after a really long time.over all an amazing website and I’ve gained a lot of penpals from it!
On this website, I have made more friends than I ever did in school! All of which share the same hobbies and likes as me, it is very comforting. You can also learn about other people’s culture!
I absolutely love this site!! I wanted to make friends from other places and who live in other cultures, and this site has just been perfect! I am also always so happy when someone reaches out to chat with me!! Amazing!! I also am so grateful for all of the steps taken to keep everyone happy, friendly, and safe!!
I found several penpals with globalpenfriends and become great friends with people all around the world! I‘m so obsessed with it (even tho its a little annoying that you can only see last 5 active chats)
this website is great! It is super safe too! The website ensures you talk enough to your penpal so you get to know them. It also approves everyone who makes an account. Overall I think this website is a great way to communicate to people all around the world!
Hi, I have been doing penpals for some time now and i really love getting to know knew people all around the world. I also looovee to travel and I am fluent in 5 different languages including english, french, german, portuguese and luxembourgish
i like global penfriends because it really cares about safety like sharing contact details only if trust is build, that’s good but maybe it’s not necessary that people need to have at least two other two way chats to share contact details with a pen pal
I really love this website, it helped me find a new pen pal who I send letters to and swap sweets from our countries with!
The overall idea is really good. But you could bring some UX improvements. Make it more obvious how to use the ‘post received’ ‘post sent’ feature. The members who gave permission for their address to be used for snail mail credits forget and then they get super surprised when they received a letter. Make it more prominent as well. I inderstand the business model of display ads, but on mobile it almost blocks certain touch areas that are important to the flow. So give more space and overlap less the banners with the essential actions. But overall I really like the platform.
It's nice to meet real people and make friends. People speak very respectfully thanks to this website. And I made great friends named Max, Timothy and Alastair. This site is truly incredible. Gerçek insanlarla tanışıp arkadaş olmak çok güzel. İnsanlar bu Web sitenin sayesinde oldukça saygılı bir şekilde konuşuyorlar. Ve ben de Max, Timothy ve Alastair adında harika dostlar edindim. Bu site gerçekten inanılmaz bir şey.
