Emerald Chat
August 8, 2023

Emerald Chat is my go-to platform for late-night conversations when I can't sleep. I've met some amazing individuals here, and the anonymity makes it easy to open up. It's a great place to share thoughts and feelings with strangers who often turn into friends.

I loved the experience! It's definitely the best alternative to omegle out of all the platforms i've scoured. Great interface, user-friendly and easy to use. The community guidelines are also very clear (make sure to read it!). Emerald Chat has become my go-to platform for connecting with people now that omegle is down.

Emerald Chat has been a game-changer for me. As someone who's a bit shy, putting myself out there can be nerve-wracking. But with Emerald Chat, I've found a safe space to connect with others at my own pace. The features are easy to use, which helps ease my anxiety. What's really comforting is the focus on safety - it's like having a security blanket while chatting. Thanks to Emerald Chat, I've been able to break out of my shell and make some genuine connections. It's been a real confidence booster for me, and I'm grateful for that.

I am an introvert, I only have few friends. They noticed I am struggling on approaching other people and communicating as well. So they recommended me to try using online app/sites that will allow me to meet people around the world. I searched for some sites to use and this is the one that I found! I met lot of people here already.

Emerald Chat Review
February 21, 2021

This app has a lot of potential for friends and bored people looking for friends. The only problem I have is that I personally get banned when I didn't do anything. Sure, people can get banned for sharing explicit content, but sometimes they get banned for skipping. When I SKIP, I only skip because either that person is trolling, sharing adult content/nudity, or afk. Another thing is to please make a system r something to keep people from trolling and giving out negative karma for the hell of it just to get people banned.

I don't understand. All of the reviews are from years ago. Right now, I'm using Emerald, and it's been awesome, so far! In fact, I'm having so much fun meeting new friends (especially during COVID). It doesn't have those pesky bots and neverending recaptcha. There will always be people using the platform for the wrong reasons but I've never had any issues when reporting someone. The support is pretty responsive, and the mods are very helpful. I am so glad they have human mods, too! Nothing beats the human touch in this AI-driven world. Overall, I'm honestly having fun!

Amazing
November 3, 2019

It's great. Ranking system and without bots? What else should I ask? It sure has some things that need developing like the permanent mute button, but if you compare it with Omegle, you will see clearly the differences.

This site is Fu of pedos
February 26, 2019

I love how the people that run this site are so obsessed with being better than Omegle that they don't spend time moderating and watching their site that's full of disgusting sexual predators and child molesters. This idiotic site also uses a $#*! backwards karma system that all it does is makes it easy to abuse and people are banned left and right. Anyone looking at this site stay away it's not worth the hassle.

Hi there all,
Although I bought a premium membership for my account, I could not use it at all. I have given information about this many times, but no emerald official has contacted me.

This website is easily one of the most vile places on the clean web, despite the terms of service, it is rife with pedophiles and sexual degenerates in every corner of the site who will stop at nothing to contact you outside of emerald. This is only made worse by its complete absence of competent human moderators, bans are based on an arbitrary point system called "karma" and how quickly one leaves a conversation, which only benefits sexual degenerates leaving innocent users to be unfairly banned whilst others proudly display their genitals on the "hall of fame" for over a week with no harsh consequences.

The user experience itself is not much better, it is really buggy and connection to the servers is often inconsistent at best while some features of the websites such as private messages straight up do not function. I do not recommend this website to anyone especially minors.

If you use Emerald chat, you'll find out. It's a fun website for the first few minutes until you piss off some girl with *******+ karma points in group chat, then you get a 24-hour ban. The text chat is $#*!ing chaos, you'll either match with some fag named George, or your grandpa, your horny grandpa (You'll match with him 90% of the time.). Video chat? Big black $#*! everywhere. If you use Emerald, you'll kill yourself.

Now batter services, Now Google has stopped message since updating everything is fine now.Use voice commands while navigating even when your device has no connection. Try saying "cancel my navigation" "what's my ETA?" or "what's my next turn?"
Weak connection? If your search fails, the Google app will deliver you results once you regain connection.

Same old people
July 16, 2019

I wouldn't recommend purely because 90% of the people on there are men saying that they are horny. If you find a person from the other 10% then your lucky. If you are a guest, it asks you if you are a robot after every chat you have with a different person but if you have an account, it is less frequent. Another thing is the pictures. It says that their AI will filter out nudity or inappropriate pictures of their private parts, even females! ( I am a female by myself but don't send these pictures). This website is not true to their rules/ values so there was not point in creating them if I am being honest.

Hmm...
July 2, 2019

The website is just a website, the average Internet people you meet there suck... but that's beside the point.

I've used the website for about 3 years and here is my current evaluation.
Why do I keep using it? Lack of better alternatives...

The website has major issues, the server is unstable and slow at updating.
Connections are easily lost without you even knowing it.
You risk having to refresh the website several times just for chatting with friends.
The Karma system is a joke and worthless as it is easy to trick the system.
The website has no way of reporting people who violate the writen rules.
The server is often down for maintanence, about once a month and for hours at a time.
The overall conditions of the website have gone down sinse an update back in December 2017. It is better than Omegle... but only just barely...

In early 2022(after most of these negative reviews were written) the site was sold by the original creator/owner 'Callan' and a new team of admins and devs have taken over the site for the past year and a bit.

In this time the site has undergone many feature additions and overall bug fixes and quality of life improvements for the site. A big improvement was to the karma system that was regularly exploited by disgruntled users who intended in sexuaI convo but didn't recieve, and also people who had experience in coding that created scripts that mass flooded peoples karma count, instantly banning them.

The exploits got fixed but also the ability to be banned for long periods of time through karma, is a removed feature all together and isn't something that needs to be worried about anymore, karma is now just an indicator how the general community views the behavior of a user. Instead of karma, the site now has moderators again to control bans and it helps with alot of issues the site faced like inappropriate profile picture uploads (the AI photo recognition was a joke and never worked) but now they are manually approved by mods to control the abuse.

The bottom line is that Callan was a terrible site owner and definitely had a lack of knowledge in what was required to be a fair site that doesn't $#*! people over and there money. These new admins and devs deserve a chance and if you read this, I urge you to give emerald a try and not let these past negative reviews influence your decision. I really do think emerald is in a place to overtake omegle if it just had more public recognition.
