Azar Alternative: Text Chat, No App Needed
An Azar alternative for people who want to meet new people by text, without a camera or a download.
Start random chatAzar and Stranger Talk: how they differ
Azar describes itself as a video chat app for meeting new people around the world, with swipe-style matching. Stranger Talk is text only and runs in the browser. There is no camera and no app store download, and you do not need an account. Stranger Talk is an independent site, not part of Azar. Features on other sites change, so check Azar's own site for its latest.
Text only, no camera
Nobody sees your face or hears your voice. You only share what you type.
No sign-up
No email, password or phone number. Confirm you are 18+ and start.
Indian crowd, your language
Most people are from India. Pick Hindi speakers or use Area Chat for your state or city.
Why people try a Azar alternative
People try an Azar alternative when they want to chat without showing their face, without installing an app, or with people from India.
What to try first if you are coming from Azar
If you came from a phone app, you do not need to install anything. Open Stranger Talk in Chrome or Safari and add it to your home screen; it then works like an app, with optional alerts when a friend messages you.
- Open Stranger Talk in your browser and confirm you are 18+. No app, no sign-up.
- Pick who to meet: anyone, Hindi speakers or K-pop fans, or open a room.
- Say hi with a real question. Stuck? Start a game from the chat menu.
When Azar may suit you better
If you want a polished video app for meeting people from other countries, Azar is designed for that.
