Friends

Friends in Covet are linked via Facebook, with borrowing privileges that are similar to FH (Fashion House) members, but with a couple of differences. In Covet, having Friends helps you to borrow more items, enter more challenges, and level up more quickly. The more Friends you have, the more borrowing options. Your total number of Friends shows at the far right of the My Profile screen. Below you'll find a quick guide for borrowing from Friends, and some links to help you find Friends.

Many players also prefer to create a Facebook account just for Covet so that they can add Friends without giving access to personal and/or private info, so we've included a walkthrough for that, too.

**Borrowing from Friends:**

* When you click on the Borrow tab in the Style window (beside Owned and Shop), Covet will bring up a list of Fashion House members first, followed by a list of Friends.

* You can borrow an item from a Friend for every single challenge. Note that Covet allows only one borrowed item per challenge, whether from a Friend or an FH member.

* You can borrow an item from the same Friend once every 72 hours.
* You can borrow the same item from the same Friend only once. After that, Covet will prompt you to buy the item instead.
* You can receive the Unworn boost when borrowing an item from a Friend that you haven't worn before.

For a more detailed discussion, including strategies for borrowing from Friends and/or FH members, see our Borrowing page.

**Finding Friends:**

The best places to find Friends are the Covet Facebook groups and the Covet subreddit. Facebooks groups specifically dedicated to finding Friends are Covet Fashion Friends, Covet Add Me and More, and Covet Fashion "Add Me".

**Linking Facebook and Making a Facebook Account for Covet:**

* ***Linking your Facebook Account***

Linking Covet to your Facebook account is a good idea because if anything ever goes wrong with your installed version of the game, you can retrieve your Covet account information and progress. If for any reason you're unable to link Covet to a Facebook account, we strongly recommend at least linking Covet to your email address. (Covet will give you the option link either or both.)
Linking your Covet account is super simple if you already have a Facebook account. Just go to the My Profile screen and click the gear icon at the top right to bring up your Account Settings. The Settings screen will show the option to link to Facebook.

* ***Second Facebook Account just for Covet***

Step 1, make a new Facebook account that you'll use for Covet. You can find instructions for doing this here. Reminder: log out of your primary Facebook account before trying to create your secondary account. It can also be a good idea to use "Covet" somewhere in the name of your new account so that other Covet players can more easily recognize you as a legitimate Friend request; you'll see that many Covet-dedicated Facebook accounts use "Covet" as the last name showing on the account.

Step 2, if you've never linked your Covet account to Facebook before, the rest is easy: it's just the same as Linking Facebook Account to Covet (above). You're done!

IF, however, your Covet account is already linked to your primary Facebook account - and you want to change this - read on.

Step 3, you'll need to unlink your primary account. Login to Facebook on your primary account, then go to Settings and Privacy, then to Apps and Website. You'll see a category for "Logged in with Facebook." Click the Edit icon, look for Covet Fashion in the list, and remove it. Your Covet account has now been unlinked from your primary Facebook account.

Step 4, now login to Facebook with your new Covet-dedicated Facebook account. Leave that open.

Step 5, open Covet Fashion. Doesn't matter if it's a different device. Go to the My Profile screen, then to Account Settings. From here, it's the same steps as Linking Facebook Account (above), but when Covet gives you the option to link, the new Facebook account you just made for Covet should be listed. Of course, when Covet prompts you if youre *sure* you want to link to this Facebook account, click "yes."

Note that the change may take a little while to update, depending on your ISP and where you live. You may also be asked to re-authenticate your account the next time you open Covet.
