Frequency Asked Questions

Is Yawnfox really anonymous?

Yes. Yawnfox is designed to be usable without an account. We don't ask for your name, email, or phone number. Interactions happen directly between users.

How does topic matching work?

It's simple: if you enter a topic (like "anime" or "coding") and someone else enters the same (or similar) topic, our system prioritizes connecting you two. If no match is found, you connect with a random stranger.

How do I hide messages?

Tap the 💬 icon in the control bar to toggle the message overlay on or off.

Nothing happens when I click Start?

Make sure you have allowed Camera and Microphone permissions in your browser. Yawnfox needs these to establish a video call.

How do I report someone?

If a user violates our terms (nudity, harassment), please leave the chat immediately. We are working on a more robust reporting system for future updates.
