Manage your chat style, persona and media preferences

Choose the change you want before selecting a control. Reply instructions affect tone and detail; media toggles affect supported requests; a persona describes your role. A chat-mode switch is a separate decision with its own consequences.

Topics in this article

Enable or disable the supported chat's image mode

In a supported Premium chat, open Ask to reach Image Generation Toggle. With the toggle off, that mode cannot generate images and its request suggestions are hidden; turn it on again to restore them.

The image choice persists between sessions, but it does not control the access rules or prices for other formats. Review voice, video and private-content actions separately rather than treating this as a setting for all media.

Stop proactive media where those controls are offered

For supported characters in Realistic chat mode, use the controls alongside the gift icon. Turning the corresponding green toggle gray disables proactive pictures, voice notes or videos according to the option you select.

Inspect the current conversation because these proactive options are not present on every profile. The Realistic chat-mode label should not be confused with the separate Realistic visual-style choice during character creation.

Review the permanent effect of the custom-character mode switch

A supported custom character offers Switch to Roleplay Mode in the upper-right three-dot menu. The change is permanent for that character, so read what the confirmation says before proceeding.

To adjust tone without that mode change, state the reply style in chat or edit the character setup where supported. Do not assume that every conversation has an intensity slider or the same set of controls.

Describe your part in the scene with a persona

Create or activate a user persona in profile settings where the option is supported. It provides context for your side of the interaction rather than replacing the companion's own character definition.

Use the Premium Plus biography, relationship and intimacy fields for details you want included in your role. Omit confidential information you would not otherwise choose to submit to a service.

Ask for a fuller answer and leave your turn unwritten

Name the detail a reply needs, whether that is more dialogue, a better sense of the setting or an explanation of a choice. Try one instruction and examine the next response before adding more requests.

Use two short paragraphs: describe the setting from your character's perspective, then let them speak to me. Stop before my character responds, leaving my words and actions for my next message.

If a reply is too short, ask it to finish the incomplete point, or regenerate an off-target answer where supported. A prompt sets the desired length rather than a fixed word count; a longer response does not increase conversation memory.

Your questions

Does turning off image mode prevent other token charges?

Only that supported image mode is disabled. Video, calls, packs and other token-funded features continue to use their own controls and conditions.

Is the custom-character Roleplay Mode switch reversible?

The switch is permanent for supported custom characters. Read the confirmation rather than using it as though it were a temporary reply-style setting.

Will setting a persona replace the companion's identity?

No. A user persona supplies context about your own role, while the companion retains its separate definition. It does not replace the character you selected.

What instruction helps when I want a more detailed answer?

Say which detail you want expanded and keep your character's next turn open. For example, request setting description followed by dialogue, then ask for a continuation if needed. A length instruction does not ensure an exact word count.
