Very interesting. All my devices' platforms have always been android so I never had a different option, it's always been facebook or nothing. But it seems that this option is open to everyone. An equalizer that is not FB. Definitely worth a try. #49045
This is wonderful. My friend ID is 7026. I would like to add some friends for cooperative breeding. Please let me know if you add me so that I can add you back. Thanks!

There could be a new thread for the Friend ID feature. Or the 'Gem Exchange - Apple Platform' thread could be updated for this purpose. I imagine there are now many more players looking for gem/food partners.

You need to list your DV Park ID ( the name that shows when you open the friend dialogue box, not your forum call sign, just to be clear) and number #....

Added you o eagle eyed one!
Thank you for the add! To answer your prior question, I have successfully added someone. Since it’s so new, the process understandably needs a little tweaking. When someone adds you, you unfortunately don’t get a notification that they’ve send a friend request. They have to tell you outside of the game so you’ll know to add them. When you add them, they’ll get a push notification indicating that you’re now their friend. You won’t get a notification, but you’ll see their name in your Friends list. If you’ve sent each other gems/treats, you may have to close and reopen the game for it to show in the Gifts menu. So for me to add you, so we can be DV friends, I’ll need your Friend ID so I can add you back. 🤪

So we're going to clearly need a new system here for adding friends. While my gems are pretty much spoken for these days, I'd love to add as many people from the community as possible just for co-op breeding and checking out other parks.
In order to add a friend, you have to add each other from your parks. No notification appears stating you've received a request, both sides have to know to add one another. For each person looking to add people, they have to provide their friend ID in a post, each person adding them has to post they've added them, and they have to then go through those and add them back. It's a mess to coordinate, and I'm going to guess that the lack of notifications is due to this not quite being ready. I imagine if the friend system was really ready, Backflip would be advertising it loudly.
Maybe we need a thread where people post their IDs, and if you add someone you send them a message on the forums here directly with your id so they can add you back and delete the message and keep things a bit cleaner. Or just a post where you put your id in and everyone just keeps adding everyone else as much as possible but you don't need to respond to any.

Oh, and I'm Quil#0102 - please add!
I agree with a thread for putting your ID, I'm getting confused with who belongs to which number.

Hi Quil. I added you. Please add me back #7026
I added you back, but it says you didn't add me yet. Are you Dragonvale#7026 and did you add me as Quil#0102 or did you use Dragonvale as the name to add me? I'm under the new name 'Quil'.
I did get Theresa added back correctly.
That does remind me, I highly recommend that players change their friend name. We're all allowed one free name change, after that it will cost gems. If you don't change your name, your friends will see you as 'Dragonvale#<number>' and likely won't remember who you are in 6 months if they have 10+ names on the list with that name. Perhaps change the name to match your forum name, or in game park name, something that will allow us to identify each other down the road.
You can also change your icon, and friends will see your new icon too!

I can change my friend name, but it only gives me several possibilities to choose from: Lumi,Kai, Gardenia.... I can't choose a free name I changed the icon to sesonal baby dragon, so this looks a bit like my forum icon
