Memory is the difference between a chat that resets every evening and a companion who asks how your interview went. This guide explains how AI girlfriend memory works on Girlies, what gets saved, where you see it and how you change it, in plain words.
Short term memory inside one conversation
Every AI model reads the recent part of your conversation before it writes a reply. That is why she follows the thread of what you said ten messages ago without you repeating it. This short term context is large enough for a long evening chat, but it is not built to last for weeks. If a companion only had this, she would forget your name the next time you opened the app.
Long term memory across chats
Long term memory is a separate layer. While you talk, your companion notes facts that matter about you and saves them as short entries. Before each reply, the most relevant entries are added to what she reads. So when you mention on Friday that you are nervous about a dentist appointment, she can ask about it on Monday. On Girlies this layer is called the journal, and it is the part you can see and edit.
What she remembers, visible to you
Many apps keep memory hidden, so you never know why a character suddenly brings something up or forgets it. We took the opposite approach. Each companion keeps a "What she remembers" journal that you open from the chat screen. It lists what she knows about you in short lines.
- Basics you shared, such as your name, your city and what you do for work.
- Preferences, such as the music you like or that you prefer short replies in the morning.
- Plans and events, such as a trip next month or a game you are looking forward to.
- Things you asked her to keep in mind, such as a nickname you like.
Edit, correct or delete any entry
If something in the journal is wrong, you tap it and fix it. If you shared something you would rather she forgot, you delete the line and it stops shaping her replies. You can also add a fact yourself, which is handy when you want her to know something without bringing it up in conversation. Read more about the controls on the how it works page.
How many facts each plan keeps
The journal size depends on your plan, and the numbers are written plainly on the pricing page.
- Plus keeps up to 50 facts.
- Premium keeps 200 facts.
- Ultimate keeps unlimited facts and adds long story memory for roleplay.
When the journal is full on Plus or Premium, you choose what to remove, so nothing important disappears without you knowing.
Long story memory for roleplay
Storylines need a different kind of memory than personal facts. If you run a slow burn romance in a city you invented, she has to remember the cafe where you met, the name of her rival and the promise she made two chapters ago. Long story memory on Ultimate keeps a running summary of each storyline, so a story you pause for a week picks up exactly where it stopped. If storylines are your thing, the AI roleplay chat page shows how scenes work.
How to help her remember the right things
Memory works best when the important details are clear. A few habits make a big difference.
- Say important facts directly once, for instance "my sister is called Ana and she lives in Phoenix".
- Check the journal after the first few chats and correct anything she got slightly wrong.
- Remove facts that are no longer true, like an old job, so she does not ask about it.
- Keep separate companions for separate moods, since each one has her own journal.
What memory does not do
Memory makes her consistent, but it does not make her human. She is an AI character and says so if you ask. She does not read your other apps, your contacts or anything outside the conversations you have with her. Everything in the journal comes from what you told her or what you typed in yourself.
Where the journal lives and who sees it
Journal entries are stored with your account and used only to write her replies to you. No person reads your chats or your journal as part of running the service. If you delete a chat, the messages are gone. If you delete your whole account, the journals of all your companions go with it. You can read the details in the safety and privacy overview.
Memory feels different with each personality
The same fact sounds different depending on who remembers it. Noor, a calm architect in Chicago, tends to return to something you said with a thoughtful question. Jade, the witty game designer in Seattle, is more likely to tease you about it. Rhea, a nurse in Boston, checks in on how you are actually doing. Try a few and keep the one whose way of remembering suits you.
