Random text chat with strangers

Random chat is the fastest way to meet someone new. You don’t search or scroll: you tap Start and get matched with a random person who is online at the same moment.

One-on-one, not a crowded room

Old-style chat rooms put dozens of people in one noisy channel. ChatStranger is always one-on-one, so the conversation is actually yours. When it ends, you move on to the next random match with one tap.

Random, but on your terms

“Random” doesn’t have to mean “anyone at all”. With the free gender filter you can choose to meet anyone, or only people of a certain gender, and the other person’s choice has to match yours too.

Text chat that works everywhere

Because it’s text only, random chat on ChatStranger works well on slow connections and small phones. It runs in your browser, so there’s nothing to download or update.

Questions

How random is the matching?

You are paired with someone who is waiting at the same time and whose filter fits yours. The person who has waited longest is matched first.

Will I be matched with the same person again?

Not straight away. After you skip someone, you won’t be matched back with them on your next search.

Ready to meet someone new?

Free, anonymous, and a free gender filter. You’ll be chatting in seconds.
