A mutual first step
A visible selfie helps another person decide to connect.

How a Chatroulette call begins
Prepare your camera and microphone, then follow the matching screen. Country options depend on who is online. Chatroulette also offers iOS and Android apps.
Free entry, Quids and moderation
Chatroulette says entry is free without an account. Users earn and spend Quids; its Top Users filter uses them. Read the current screen before using a filter.
Chatroulette is 18+ and prohibits suggestive or sexual content. Automated screening and human review do not guarantee every encounter is suitable.

Choose your next conversation
Read Xmegle for another roulette-style approach or Chateek for a chat-directory format. The video chat with women on this page is provided by CooMeet, not Chatroulette; HotCams.live is an independent partner site. Its account, membership and minutes are separate.
