The best Omegle alternative. Meet real people from 190+ countries instantly — anonymous, free, no account needed. Deep Talk, Hot Takes, Night Owl and more.
Strangr is an Omegle alternative built with modern technology. Unlike Omegle, Strangr uses Google Firebase for real-time matching, has AI-powered safety moderation, vibe rooms for themed conversations, and works as a PWA you can install on your phone.
Yes — completely. We use Firebase Anonymous Auth, which gives you a random session ID. No email, no phone, no name. We don't know who you are, and neither does your stranger. Chat history is deleted when both users disconnect.
On the matching screen, tap the 📍 Distance filter and choose "Nearby" or "Same city". The app uses your approximate GPS location (rounded to 1km for privacy) to find strangers in your area. Nearby matching is a Premium feature.
Vibe Rooms let you match based on mood — Deep Talk for meaningful conversations, Hot Takes for spicy debates, Night Owl for late-night chats, and Confessions for anonymous sharing. Our AI agents are tuned to each vibe for a more immersive experience.
Strangr works as a Progressive Web App (PWA) — tap "Install App" in the nav bar or use your browser's "Add to Home Screen" option. It opens full-screen with push notifications, just like a native app. No app store needed.
Join thousands of people chatting right now. Free, instant, anonymous.
Strangr.live was built on a simple belief: the world is full of fascinating people outside your social bubble. We built the fastest, safest, most private way to meet them.
Strangr launched in 2025 with a small team frustrated by the state of online connection. Social media had become performative. DMs felt transactional. We missed the magic of truly random human conversation — the kind you'd have on a long train journey or at a hostel abroad.
We built Strangr on Firebase — Google's real-time infrastructure — so that when you press Start, you're connected to a real person within 2 seconds. No servers to manage. No databases to maintain. Just instant, global, anonymous connection at scale.
Strangr is free forever. We fund the platform through display advertising (Google AdSense and partner networks) and Strangr Premium — an optional subscription for advanced filters, ad-free experience, and priority matching.
We never sell your data. We never run ads inside active chat sessions. These are public commitments.

Strangr requires no account. We collect: IP address (fraud/geo, deleted after 90 days), device/browser info (performance), and anonymized usage analytics. Chat messages are not stored after sessions end — they exist only in real-time Firebase Firestore during the active session and are deleted when both users disconnect.
Strangr is built on Google Firebase. Firebase processes data per Google's Privacy Policy. Anonymous Auth assigns a random UID — no email, phone, or identity attached. Firestore data is stored in Google's cloud and subject to Google Cloud's security certifications.
We display ads via Google AdSense and partner networks. These networks use cookies to serve interest-based ads. You can opt out at Google Ads Settings. We never share chat content with advertisers. Premium subscribers are ad-free.
Strangr is strictly for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor is using the platform, contact safety@strangr.live immediately.
EU/UK users: right to access, rectify, erase, and port data. California users: right to know and delete. We do not sell personal information. Contact privacy@strangr.live to exercise your rights.
All data in transit is TLS-encrypted. Firebase Security Rules restrict Firestore access to authenticated session participants only. We conduct regular security reviews.

Here's how we protect every person on Strangr, and how you can protect yourself.
Every conversation is scanned in real-time for violations. Sexual content involving minors triggers immediate session termination and mandatory reporting to NCMEC. Hate speech and threats result in permanent bans.
The 🚩 report button is in every chat. Reports go directly to our Trust & Safety queue and are reviewed within 24 hours. Repeat violators are permanently banned by device fingerprint and IP range.
Never share: full name, address, phone number, social media handles, school or workplace, or financial details. Strangr never asks for this. Neither should the people you chat with.
Strangr is 18+ only. We use age estimation signals and behavioral detection to identify and remove underage users. Any CSAM encountered should be reported immediately at safety@strangr.live.
