Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. An edge labeling $f:E\to \{0,1\}$ induces a vertex labeling $f^+:V\to Z_2$ defined by $f^+(v)\equiv \sum\limits_{uv\in E} f(uv)\pmod{2}$ for each $v \in V$, where $Z_2=\{0,1\}$ is the additive group of order 2. For $i\in\{0,1\}$, let $e_f(i)=|f^{-1}(i)|$ and $v_f(i)=|(f^+)^{-1}(i)|$. A labeling $f$ is called edge-friendly if $|e_f(1)-e_f(0)|\le 1$. $I_f(G)=v_f(1)-v_f(0)$ is called the edge-friendly index of $G$ under an edge-friendly labeling $f$. Extreme values of edge-friendly index of complete bipartite graphs will be determined.
