Try a character's Live Action experience
Live Action is an interactive visual experience available for selected Candy AI characters. Look for the joystick-style badge rather than assuming every profile has the same video controls.



Open it from an eligible character
An eligible profile or chat can show a Live Action entry. That takes you into a separate visual interface with its own menu of supported actions. It is not the ordinary text-chat window.
Live Action is a mobile Premium feature for selected characters. Check the controls available on your device and account; seeing a portrait on desktop does not establish that the mode is available there.
Access does not remove every action cost
The mode can contain both included and token-priced actions. Review the action you are about to choose, even if you already have a subscription. Do not use your remaining text-chat allowance as an estimate of what a video action costs.
If the experience is unavailable, first check the character, device and subscription. Repeatedly pressing a missing or inactive control will not add an entitlement to the account.
Choose the right format
- Use chat for a written conversation with the character.
- Use a supported voice or call control for audio interaction.
- Use video generation to create a requested media result.
- Use Candy Shorts to watch a prepared episode.
- Use Live Action for the separate interactive visual mode offered on eligible profiles.
All of these remain AI-character experiences. An interactive menu or realistic visual is not evidence of a live human performer responding to your account.
Questions and answers
What is Live Action on Candy AI?
It is a separate interactive video experience for eligible characters, identified by its Live Action or joystick-style control.
Is Live Action available to free users?
Live Action requires Premium and an eligible character on mobile. Check the conditions shown in your account before choosing an action.
Does Premium make every Live Action choice free?
No. Access to the mode and the cost of an individual action are different. Some actions can require tokens.
Is Live Action the same as a Candy AI video call?
Do not treat every video or call label as the same feature. Live Action has a separate visual interface; voice calls, generated clips and other experiences have their own controls.
