I originally signed up for this site out of boredom, and I've never expected to make such good friends on here! All the people are very friendly, and they respond quickly most of the time! The only thing that kind of bothers me is that you can only see your last 5 active conversations, unless you pay. Other than that, it's amazing!
I've gotten to meet so many awesome people on here, with various interests, living in various places. it has helped expand my horizons!
I have enjoyed talking to members. Haven't found a long time penfriend yet but I am still very hopeful.
Ive made so many friends! Including my best friend in the whole world! I recommend this to everyone!
I love this site I got to see amazing people and some not I also got my Penpal here thank y’all for this idk what I would do without it
Great experience! Great experience! Great experience! Great experience! Great experience! Great experience! Great experience!
Great way to practice languages.I’ve improved my language skills and met friendly pen pals. Sometimes it takes time to get replies, but overall it’s a good experience.
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)
it's fine to join the site and know some new friends Thank you Global Penfriends for providing this website.
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.
