Safety overview

Hotmegle is for adults and carries the predictable risks of anonymous random chat. Users should assume they may encounter trolling or inappropriate behavior and act accordingly.

  • Do not share phone numbers, social media handles, or other identifying details during chats.
  • End or skip conversations that make you uncomfortable; reporting options may be reactive rather than proactive.
  • Be cautious with any offers to buy services or subscribe; a user complaint reports triple billing for a premium subscription.
  • Use privacy-conscious settings on your device and avoid showing personal surroundings on camera.
