Your phone is already a webcam

The camera you need for a video chat is already in your pocket. Roulettly opens on a phone like on a computer, and the first screen shows your own camera preview before anything else.

This page only talks about Roulettly. It says nothing about any other service.

Pick the way that suits your phone

Same chat, three ways in.

1

In your mobile browser

Open Roulettly, turn on your camera and start. Nothing to install and nothing to create.

2

On Android, with the app

The Roulettly app is published on Google Play. More on the Android page.

3

On iPhone, in Safari

There is no iOS app: Roulettly runs in Safari. The iPhone page explains how to allow the camera.

One permission: the camera

When you press "Turn on my camera", your phone asks you to allow it. That is the only permission Roulettly asks for. You see your own preview first, so you can check your framing and your light before anyone sees you.

The free chat has no account, no email, no phone number and no password. You can add a nickname if you want one, or leave it empty.

A call, one hand

Pick "You are" and "I want to talk to", then press Start. When a call is not for you, press Next and someone else appears. Report and Block are on the same screen.

The interface comes in 20 languages. Matching gives priority to someone who speaks yours, and connects you with someone else if nobody is available in it. The flag of each person's country shows during the call.

Every call goes through an encrypted relay

A signalling server introduces two strangers. After that, video and audio go from your device to our relay, then to the other person's device, for every match.

The stream stays end-to-end encrypted by WebRTC: the relay only forwards encrypted packets, and can neither read nor store them. The other person never receives your IP address, only the relay's. The conversation itself is not recorded.

Moderation

Reporting and blocking are on every match. Reports are reviewed by our moderation team. It is a random video chat reserved for adults aged 18 and over.
