Omegle is possibly one of the biggest chat-oriented websites in the world. With its simple idea of linking two random users across the globe for a video or text conversation, Omegle gained instant popularity as soon as it was launched in March 2009. As the website increased its user base, the chat experience started to diminish. A lot of users find Omegle undesirable now, with excessive bots plaguing the website along with routinely coming across harmful and offensive content. Luckily, there are other websites that offer a similar service as Omegle and are a lot more fun to use. Today, we bring you the 12 best alternatives to Omegle.

As old as Omegle, Chatroulette uses the same idea of linking two random users for a video conversation. Either of the users is free to abort the chat at any given time. The website also offers the option of chatting via text.

Chatroulette is one of the most popular chat websites out there, paralleling in popularity with Omegle. However, the website faces the same criticisms as Omegle, of taking too long to remove inappropriate content.

Like, highlighted screen name, pro badges, purple or gold coloured screen name, access to more than chatrooms at once, etc. Tinychat also comes with a virtual store where you can buy virtual gifts for other users on the website.

MeetMe is a website that allows you to live stream on its platform. As a spectator, you can either watch the streams hosted on the website or create one of your own. You can also guest on someone else’s stream, giving you the option to interact with other users. While it is a good alternative to Omegle, it may not be suitable for users who do not want to live stream.

MeetMe also has a highly functional Android and iOS app. MeetMe lets you send and receive gifts, which can be exchanged for credit. It also allows you to randomly chat with another live streamer.

Shagle

Shagle is very similar to Omegle, providing the option of both, text and video chats. You can use Shagle without needing an account, although making one gives you access to a lot of other features. In order to begin chatting, you need to specify your gender and your location. You can also set your interests, letting the algorithm match you with someone that shares your interests. Shagle boasts more than 4 million users on its website which means you’ll never run out of people to talk to, making it one of the best alternatives to Omegle.

Shagle offers a premium service, which gives the user added benefits like the ability to initiate a private (encrypted) conversation, send gifts to desired users, location override, and match with people of preferred gender.

Emerald Chat

Emerald Chat is one of the better alternatives to Omegle out there. Firstly, you’ll need to make an account and fill it up with basic information about your likes and interests. Emerald Chat will then link you to someone with similar interests, whom you can chat with on video or on text. One unique thing about Emerald Chat is that it lets users rate each other after every conversation.

Users can give their counterpart a point if they enjoyed the chatting experience, or reduce a point if the experience wasn’t suitable to their liking. These points add up to make a user’s ‘karma’. If a user’s karma score drops down too low, Emerald Chat places restrictions on their profile, so as to provide a smooth experience for everyone else.

On top of that, Emerald Chat is heavily moderated, with offensive content getting taken down quickly. Emerald Chat also comes with a paid subscription service, which unlocks some additional features like filtering users according to their karma score and genres. 

Camsurf

Camsurf is another pretty straightforward alternative to Omegle that offers all the features as the latter. You can set up an account and filter people you want to chat with by location. You can also select a genre before chatting. It allows you to find like-minded people who share the same interests as you.

Camsurf also has a premium service that lets you filter users by gender, lets you reconnect a chat with a previous user, and gives you the option of creating a private, encrypted chat. Camsurf has a pleasant UI and fast servers, which make your chatting experience smooth and unhindered.

Meetzur

With its stripped-down minimal look, Meetzur is a website for people who simply want to chat with another user, without any added features or perks.

Meetzur only allows the option of text chat and follows a very simple algorithm. You do not need to register to start chatting. Just press the ‘Chat Now’ button and you’re on your way.

ChatHub

There are several benefits to using ChatHub. The interface is quite similar to Omegle and very easy to use. You can filter participants by language and gender, making it easy to find your preferred matches. The website is optimised for mobile, allowing you to browse through users without any hiccups. Its special algorithm ensures you don’t match with the same partner twice. There is a smartphone app available for ChatHub as well. All you need to do is open ChatHub in Chrome, press the three dots up top and select ‘Add to Home Screen’.

Bazoocam

Bazoocam keeps things simple, light, and fun, without being too bland. The website follows the typical method of matching two users together from across the world.
