How it works

Three steps to someone new

No profile to perfect and nothing to swipe. Just a conversation waiting to happen.

  1. Join Yaplio

    Create your account in a few moments.

  2. Meet someone new

    Get connected to a random person and start talking.

  3. Stay connected

    Add people you like and keep the conversation going.

Random chat

One click. Someone new.

Press Start and we'll pair you with another person who's looking for a conversation too. No camera, no profiles to scroll — just two people and a chat.

  • Instant text chat

    Messages land the moment they're sent, with typing indicators to keep things flowing.

  • One-click skip

    Not feeling it? Press Next and meet someone else. Skip as often as you like.

  • Worldwide connections

    Chat in your own language, or open up to people from everywhere.

  • No camera required

    It's just text. Nothing to switch on, nothing to set up, no pressure.

Friends

A random hello can become a real friendship.

When a conversation clicks, you don't have to say goodbye. Stay in touch with the people you like — on your terms.

  1. Chat at random

    Meet someone new and see where the conversation goes.

  2. Send a friend request

    Enjoying the chat? Ask to stay in touch. They decide whether to accept.

  3. Keep talking privately

    Friends get a private conversation you can come back to anytime.

Premium

Choose who you meet.

Premium adds a gender filter to random chat, so you decide who you'd like to talk to.

  • Based on what people declare

    The filter relies on the gender each person chooses for their own profile. It isn't guessed, and it isn't verified.

  • Real availability, no guarantees

    You're only matched with people who are actually looking right now. Some searches take longer, and a match is never guaranteed.

Free for everyone

Premium only adds the filter. Everything else stays free:

  • Random chat
  • Unlimited skips
  • Friends
  • Private messages
  • Block & report

Safety

You're in control of every conversation.

No platform can promise a perfectly safe space. What we can promise: simple tools, clear rules and real people reviewing reports.

Privacy-conscious by design

Strangers only see your username and the gender you declared — never your email or your real name.

  • Block users

    Blocking ends the chat right away. They can't match with you, message you or send you requests.

  • Report inappropriate behavior

    Flag a chat in a couple of taps. The recent messages are attached, so moderators can see what happened.

  • Community guidelines

    Clear rules that everyone agrees to before their first chat.

  • Human moderation

    Reports are reviewed by people, and nobody is ever banned automatically.

Strangers today. Friends tomorrow.

Your next great conversation is one hello away.
