Omegle alternative

A free Omegle alternative for random video chat

Omegle shut down in 2023, but the appeal of meeting a random stranger on camera never went away. Mingle brings that experience back — free, instant, and built for modern phones and browsers.

Why people are looking for an Omegle alternative

For years, Omegle was the go-to site for talking to strangers at random. When it closed, millions of people were left looking for a replacement that captured the same spontaneous, anyone-could-be-next feeling. Mingle was built for exactly that: open the page, press start, and you are face to face with someone new in seconds.

What makes Mingle a great replacement

  • Instant random matching.Just like Omegle's video mode — one tap connects you with a random person, and skip moves you to the next.
  • Completely free. No subscription, no paywall, no credit card.
  • No sign-up or app. Mingle runs in your browser. Pick a name and go.
  • Mobile-first. Omegle never felt great on phones. Mingle is designed for them.
  • Safety built in. Adults-only, clear guidelines, and one-tap reporting reviewed by a safety team.
