What OmeTV is

OmeTV is a free random video chat service that connects you with strangers over webcam. Its rules set the minimum age at 18 and prohibit minors outright. Australia's eSafety guide notes that it does not verify users' ages.

Why people look for a OmeTV alternative

01

Age rules nobody checks

The 18+ rule exists on paper, but safety guides report that anyone can type in a date of birth and get in. That shapes who you might meet.

02

Little visibility into moderation

eSafety describes OmeTV's chat rules as enforced by the community through reporting. Internet Matters says there is little public information on how moderation works.

03

The app vanished from phones

After the store removals reported by Internet Matters, many people who used OmeTV on mobile went looking for something they could simply download.

The best OmeTV alternatives

  1. 1

    HushNo camera, no photos

    Hush fits the OmeTV user who mostly wanted a conversation and put up with the camera to get it. Hush is for adults only, with age verified at signup, and moderation happens before a voice note lands rather than after someone complains.

  2. 2

    Chatroulette

    Same webcam format, but with required registration and AI flagging of video.

  3. 3

    Azar

    One-on-one video with translated subtitles and a safety blur. App Store rating 18+.

  4. 4

    HelloTalk

    If you mostly chatted with people abroad, a language exchange app gives that a purpose.

When OmeTV is still the better pick

If what you enjoy is fast, face-to-face video with strangers from many countries, OmeTV does that with very little friction, and Hush will not replace it. Hush is built for fewer, longer conversations without video.
