No app store detour
Nothing to download, nothing to update, no install prompt before you can see anyone. You are also not handing a permanent app your contacts, your notifications, or a background process.
Open the page and you are put into a random 1-on-1 video chat. Nothing to install. Skip to the next person anytime.

Safari, Chrome or desktop — one product, one version. There is no separate build to hunt for, and no situation where the version you can get is behind someone else’s.
Push notifications with the tab closed are weaker than an installed app’s, and mobile browsers suspend background tabs aggressively. Video quality is not part of the trade: browsers have had the same real-time media capability as apps for years. Your connection is the limit, not the container.
Move on with one tap. Report or block anyone. Moderation runs around the clock.
Video, voice and text are not three settings on one queue — they are three different queues. Whoever you are matched with chose the same one you did, which is why nobody is put in front of a camera they did not plan to turn on.
If you would rather not use a camera at all, start in voice or text and none is requested.
That decides which queue you are in.
Your device is asked only when a video match is connecting — not when the page loads. No reason to ask for your camera while you are still reading.
The conversation counts as connected when the first video frame actually arrives. A connection that never produced a picture is not a call you had.
Ending a conversation puts you straight back in the queue you were in. No start screen, no re-picking your mode.
Browsers track camera access in three states, not two. Most people assume it is a yes/no switch, so when nothing happens they think the site is broken. Once you have refused, the browser stops asking — the only way back is through settings.
On other browsers we can check and skip ahead. On iPhone we cannot — so the page explains why the camera is needed, then asks. That is not a bug; it is the only behaviour available when the state cannot be read.
WHAT YOU SEE FIRST “A video match is connecting. Safari will ask for your camera and mic next.”
You start with free matches. Video and voice draw on those and then on coins, and the page shows what is left before anything is spent. Text does not consume the free video and voice allowance, and free matches top up again over time.
