1. Allow Microphone Access (Crucial Step) Because Shomla is a live voice chat, your browser will ask for permission to use your microphone.
- Click "Allow" in the browser pop-up.
- Privacy note: We only need this to connect you with your partner. We never record your audio or store your data.
2. Start the Search Click the big "Start" button on the main screen. Our smart chatroulette algorithm will instantly start looking for an available conversation partner.
3. Talk and Manage the Chat Once connected, your free talk begins! You have full control over the conversation using the on-screen buttons:
- Next (Skip): Not feeling the vibe? Click "Next" to instantly disconnect and find a new stranger.
- Stop: Ends the current session and stops the search.
- Mute (Mic icon): Temporarily mutes your microphone if you need a moment of silence.
Troubleshooting (Что делать, если не работает):
- I can't hear anyone / No one hears me: Check if your microphone is muted in your system settings. Ensure you haven't blocked microphone access in your browser's address bar (look for the lock or camera/mic icon near the URL).
- Connection drops: Shomla relies on a stable internet connection for seamless talk online. Try switching from mobile data to Wi-Fi.
