You want more girls on the other end
There is no filter to set. The difference is who is online: most people with their camera on are girls, so that is who you tend to meet, with no promise either way.
Uhmegle Alternative for One-on-One Video Chat
If you already chat with strangers on Uhmegle and want to try somewhere else, Yapchat puts you in a private video call with one person at a time, straight from your phone or laptop.

What is Uhmegle?
Uhmegle is a site for meeting strangers online. Its homepage calls it a place to "chat with strangers" and describes "free, anonymous, and safe video or text chats with people worldwide". You open it in a browser and get paired with someone new.
Plenty of people use more than one of these sites. Each one ends up with its own crowd and its own way of matching, so trying another is often just a way to meet different people.
What people want from an Uhmegle alternative
You want something between text and video
Pick a voice match and your camera stays off the whole time. Start a video match only when you feel like it, or not at all.
You want to find them again
If a chat goes well, follow that person and call them the next time they are online.
How a match works on Yapchat
Tap start and the matcher looks for someone who has their camera on right now. When it finds them, the call opens and it is just the two of you. Most of the people waiting on camera here are girls.
It is just the two of you on the call, with no room to join and no audience. Not getting on? Skip to the next person whenever you like. On a phone, you can also keep Yapchat on your home screen like an app.
Start ChattingFree matches to start. Skip whenever you like.
When a chat is worth keeping
Each match leaves a message thread, so you can keep talking after the video ends. Follow the people you got on with, and ring them the next time they show up online instead of hoping the next random match brings them round. Following is where you will be asked to sign in.
If someone was not worth keeping, hang up first. Their profile is where the report and block options live. Yapchat is for adults only, and moderation runs around the clock.
Uhmegle alternative questions
What is Uhmegle?
Uhmegle is a website for chatting with strangers. Its own homepage describes it as free video or text chat with people worldwide.
What is a good Uhmegle alternative?
One that fixes whatever you were unhappy with. What Yapchat adds is a crowd that is mostly girls, voice and text matches, and a message thread that stays after the call.
Do I need an account to use Yapchat?
There is no sign-up form. Open the page and tap start. Signing in comes up later, when you want to follow someone.
Can I choose to meet girls?
There is no option for that, and every match is random. Girls simply make up most of the people online, so they are who you will meet most of the time. That is a pattern, not a promise.
Can I use voice or text instead of video?
Yes. Voice and text are their own modes on the start screen, and neither one turns your camera on. Every match also leaves a message thread you can pick up after the call.
Are Uhmegle and Yapchat the same website?
No. They are separate services run by different people, and Yapchat has no connection to Uhmegle.
Someone new is a tap away.
