# Friends

:::hint{type="info" title="Premium"}
Sending friend requests needs Premium. Accepting a request is free.
:::

The friends list shows which of your friends are in KOJA Cloth Tool right now. It lives in your profile menu and works from your Discord sign-in.

## Opening the list

Sign in with Discord (**Sign in with Discord** at the top right). Then click your name at the top right: the menu shows your account card, your status and the **Friends** list.

A small number on your avatar means friend requests are waiting for you.

## Adding a friend

:::steps
### Get their Discord ID
A Discord ID is a number of 17 to 20 digits, not a username. Click **How do I find an ID?** in the menu for the steps:
1. In Discord, open **User Settings** > **Advanced**.
2. Turn on **Developer Mode**.
3. Right-click the person (or your own avatar) and choose **Copy User ID**.

To give someone your own ID, use **Copy your ID** at the top of the menu.

### Send the request
Paste the ID into **Enter a Discord ID** under **Add friend** and click **Send**. The app tells you straight away if the ID is the wrong length, is your own, is already on your list, or belongs to someone who has already sent you a request.

### Wait for them to accept
Your request shows as **Waiting for them to accept** until they answer. **Cancel request** withdraws it.
:::

## Answering requests

Incoming requests appear under **Requests** with **Wants to be friends**. Click **Accept** or **Decline**. Accepting is free on any plan.

## The list

Friends are grouped into **Online** and **Offline**, with a count of how many are online. Use **Search friends** to find someone by name or ID.

Each friend shows their status, or **Last seen** when they are offline. From a friend's row you can:

- **Message on Discord**, which opens a conversation with them in Discord;
- **Remove friend**. They stop appearing on your list, and you stop appearing on theirs.

If the app cannot reach the server, the list says so and may be out of date.

## Your status

Click **Change Status** on your account card and pick one:

| Status | What friends see |
| --- | --- |
| **Online** | You are online. |
| **Away** | You are away. |
| **Do not disturb** | You are busy. |
| **Invisible** | You appear offline to friends. |

Your choice is kept when you close and reopen the app.

## Limits

There is a cap on how many friend requests you can send in a period. When you reach it, the app says **Too many requests for now** and how long to wait.
