Questions people from Johannesburg ask
Is StrangerYaar really anonymous?
Yes. Strangers only see your random name, face avatar and, if you choose, your country, state or city. We never show your email, phone number or exact location, and chats with strangers are not saved.
How does matching work?
Add a few interests (like football, anime or music), the languages you speak and, if you like, your location. We first look for someone who shares an interest and a language, then widen the search after a few seconds so you are never left waiting long.
Is StrangerYaar free?
Yes, chatting is free. Optional Premium plans, from a day to a month (one-time payment, no auto-renew), add extras like faster matching, choosing to match with girls or boys, sending photos and a profile photo. Premium needs a saved account.
Which languages can I chat in?
You can pick the languages you speak: English, Hindi, Bengali, Telugu, Marathi, Tamil, Urdu, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Odia, Punjabi, Assamese, Spanish, Portuguese, Indonesian, Arabic, French, German, Russian, Turkish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, Thai, Filipino, Chinese, Polish, Dutch, Persian, Swahili, Malay. We match you with someone who shares at least one of them, so the chat does not stall on a language gap.
