Required Information on Signup
Username
TalkWithStranger offers the following methods to verify your account:
Verification email (required)
You will be asked to confirm your email to be able to post in certain categories and chatrooms. However, you can start exploring the chatrooms even before confirming your email.
Making Contact on TalkWithStranger
Public chat rooms are available.
Anyone can create forum threads.
A public chat room dedicated to dating is available.
The search tool shows chat room and user results.
You can play multiplayer games with other users.
The random chat feature allows public chat with strangers, and there is no way of telling if a person is a minor or not. You will only have to rely on what the other person is telling you. Good thing, most users avoid contact with minor as evident in some chat conversations we have collected. A particular user immediately left the chat after finding out that he was talking to a 15-year-old female.
You will not be able to know beforehand if you will be partnered with a male or a female. You will need to ask for their age, sex, and location as it will not be indicated in any way especially if you came across him or her in the random chat feature.
Sending photos is allowed, but the other person has to accept the file that you are sending. Most people use this opportunity as a way to advertise their websites as links are not allowed in chat boxes.
TalkWithStranger Profile Quality
Profile pictures are visible for everyone.
You can send a personal message by clicking on the profile photo.
You can add a text to your profile information.
You can only upload one profile photo.
There are a lot of fake profiles.
As is the case with other chat sites, TalkWithStranger has a lot of fake users. There is no profile photo guideline, and you can use almost any profile photo that you want. It is noticeable, however, that nearly no one uses their real images. Instead, they upload pictures of cartoon characters, animals, flowers, etc. that they took from the internet. Profile photos are also scaled small that you will need to click on them to see them clearly.
Just basing on the profile alone, it seems like it is impossible to get a real date as you will not be able to see how they look like or even get a glimpse of their personalities. No separate page will show a member profile. Instead, a small pop-up box showing a photo, a username, and chat buttons act as the main profile page.
There is no functionality where you can add a paragraph about yourself. Directly having a conversation with the other person is the key if you want to know more about him or her.
TalkWithStranger App
All the functionalities on the site are available in the app
The app is free to download
Android users can download the app
The app is easier to use if you want to experience video and voice chat
You can mark chatrooms as a favorite using the app
You cannot play the games using the app
You can download the games if you want
You can create an account using the app
TalkWithStranger's functionalities are easier to use if you are on the app. Compared to the app, the desktop version is a bit cluttered with advertisements. The actual chat box space is a smaller portion only of the entire page as ads take most of the window's area.
Overall, the app is a better choice if you wish to try out TalkWithStranger. The photos are better scaled inside the app, and the chat rooms are better sorted. It is easier to send a voice message using the app as it directly uses the mobile microphone, unlike the desktop version which gets a few errors when accessing the device.
The only downside to using the app is that you can't open two or more chat rooms at the same time. You can only do this on the desktop version.

Editor's Conclusion
Chris Pleines Founder of Datingscout and Author of the book "Online Dating for Dummies"
TalkWithStranger will work for you if you are looking for a free chat site with good gaming features. However, it does not seem to be very reliable when it comes to dating. The dating feature is only a small part of the community, and it does not prove to be the most active. In addition to that, there are a lot of minors you don't want to get entangled in a relationship with. If you are looking for other dating site options, check out our Dating Sites category.
