Your Chatingly room, with who you meet picked first

You need an account before anyone helps you.

Most snags in a video room are fixed on your own device. Where to go, and what each place is good for:

• Your browser's site settingsBest when the room opens but your camera or microphone stays off: allow both for getchatingly.com, then reload.
• The quick check screenBest when the check before your room does not finish: reload the page and run it again on a steady connection.
• The FAQ on chatingly.comBest for questions about that site itself: its interests, its games and its report button.
• The leave button in your callBest when a stranger makes you uneasy: leave straight away and open a new room with your picks kept.

Every random video chat makes you install an app first.

There are three real ways in, ranked from the most effort to the least.

1. Most effortThe Chatrandom appYou install it on your phone first, then configure your chat inside the app.
2. Less effortchatingly.comIt opens in the browser with no sign-up, and you can add interests to match on. It offers no gender or country filter, so who you meet is down to chance.

   

3. Least effortGetchatinglyYou pick who you meet and your vibe before the room, pass one quick check, and the 1-on-1 room opens in your language. The check is the one extra step.
