How it works

Find them again: how Follow and call back work

Random video chat is mostly a stream of new faces. Every so often there’s someone you’d happily talk to another day. Here’s how to find them again after the call ends.

  1. During the call

    Tap Follow

    The Follow button sits at the top of the call screen, next to the other person’s name. Tap it and they’re added to your Following list. Tap it again if you change your mind.

  2. After the call

    Two places to find them

    Everyone you follow is listed under Following in your profile. Your recent calls also show up in your call history, which you can open from the history button on the start screen.

  3. Next time

    Call them back

    From either list you can call someone directly. Direct calls use coins. If they’re already on another call, you’ll be offered the option to send them a message instead.

Worth knowing

  • Following doesn’t start a call on its own. It just keeps the person where you can find them.
  • A direct call goes to that one person rather than a random match, and direct calls use coins.
  • Following someone doesn’t stop you from reporting or blocking them.
  • CamSurf is for adults, 18 and over.
