Before you press start

Four things that make any cam chat better

  • 01

    Light in front of you

    A lamp or a window behind the screen, not behind you.

  • 02

    Camera at eye level

    Prop the phone up. Nobody wants to look up your nose.

  • 03

    One tab with the camera

    Close other video apps so your browser can use the camera.

  • 04

    Headphones if you can

    No echo, and your conversation stays yours.

In the call

Every button you need, nothing you do not

The call screen keeps four controls within thumb reach. You are always one tap from leaving.

  • Skip

    Move to the next person instantly.

  • Voice or text

    Step back from video to voice or text without hanging up.

  • End

    Leave the call. Nothing is recorded on your device.

  • Report & block

    Flag anyone who breaks the rules, then never see them again.

Chatcam, minus the awkward part

The hardest moment of any chatcam session is the first second: two faces, nobody talking. BaseChat softens it two ways. First, you can warm up in a random text chat or a chat room and only start a video call with someone you already like. Second, if you jump straight into a random video call chat, skipping is instant and nobody is told why.

Is cam chat with strangers safe?

Use the same sense you would anywhere online. Keep personal details out of the conversation, do not show anything you would not want saved, and leave any call that feels off. Report and block are on the call screen itself; reports go to the moderation team, and accounts that break the rules are removed.

Questions

Video chat questions

How does a random video call chat work?

Press start, allow the camera once, and BaseChat connects you with someone online. Talk as long as it is good, or skip to the next person.

Is video chat free?

You can start for free. Longer calls and some extras use coins, and the price is shown before you spend anything.

Do I need to sign in?

Yes, a quick sign-in before your first call. It keeps bots and repeat offenders out of the video chat.

My camera shows a black screen — what do I do?

Allow camera access in the browser address bar, close other apps or tabs using the camera, and reload. The help center has more fixes.

Can I start by text instead?

Yes. A random text chat or a chat room is a good warm-up; you can move to video with someone once you both want to.

Camera ready? Someone is too.
