Apps and alternatives

CamChat review

A quick look at CamChat: instant cam matching, gender filters, and the ads you pay for it with.

Uhmegle review

Uhmegle is the closest thing to old Omegle: same layout, same two modes, same abrupt matching.

Bazoocam review

A French random video chat site that has quietly outlasted most of its competitors.

CooMeet review

CooMeet promises verified matches with women — the catch is that it is a paid service.

Emerald Chat review

Emerald Chat tries to fix random chat with interest matching and a reputation system.

Flirtify review

Flirtify aims random chat squarely at dating — a narrower promise than it first appears.
