About momos
Updated
momos is a free 1-on-1 random video chat website for adults in the United States. It exists for a simple reason: meeting someone new face to face, even for a few minutes, can make a regular evening a lot more interesting.
This page explains who momos is for, the principles it's built on, and how to reach us.
Free, in your browser. 18+ only.
Who momos is for
momos is meant for grown-ups (18+) who want real conversations with real people. That might be a college student in Austin looking for a study break, someone who just moved to Columbus and doesn't know anyone yet, a night-shift worker in Las Vegas winding down at 7 a.m., or anyone who wants to practice talking to new people.
It's built for the US first. Matching stays within the United States by default, so you're more likely to meet people in a similar time zone with shared references. If you want to, you can narrow it to your state or open it up worldwide.
Our principles
18 and over, no exceptions
Everyone enters a date of birth on first sign-in, and under-18s are blocked. momos isn't for minors, full stop.
No recording
Your calls are never recorded or saved by momos. We're also honest that the other person could screen-record, so we always remind you to keep that in mind.
Real people, live
Every match is another adult online at the same moment. The report and block buttons sit in the call bar, people on our team read every report, and repeat offenders get banned.
Free to talk
Video chat is free. Coins exist for optional extras like gifts and the gender-filter pass, not to gate conversations.
Honest about limits
We won't call momos anonymous (a Google account is required, though matches never see your email), and we won't claim age checks we don't do. You deserve to know exactly how it works.
How momos works
- Go to momos in any browser, on mobile or desktop. Nothing to install.
- The first time, use your Google account and enter your birthday.
- Pick your match area and any interests you want.
- Press Start to meet someone, and Next to meet someone else.
- Talk, text, play one of seven games, or try a camera effect.
- Friend the people you click with so you can message them later.
Why we built it this way
Random video chat used to be a big part of the internet, and plenty of people still want what it offered: a quick, unscripted conversation with someone new. What they don't want is a site that's confusing about its rules, hides how it works, or makes you pay just to say hello.
So momos keeps things simple. It's a website, not an app you have to install. Talking is free. Safety tools sit in the call controls where you can reach them in a second, not buried in a menu. And we'd rather tell you clearly what we can't promise than overstate what we can.
