Real conversations, without the forever.
ChitChat brings back the spontaneity of talking in private. Connect with friends through mutual requests, chat in real time over WebSockets, and let every conversation disappear after 24 hours — zero permanent archives, just genuine connection.

How ChitChat Works: Simple by design
Get started in three simple steps — no phone numbers or complex setup.
Pick Your Handle
Sign in securely with Google and claim your unique username handle. Your handle is the simple ID your friends use to connect.
Mutual Approval Only
Search for friends by username and send a request. Both people must accept before a chat begins, completely eliminating spam.
24-Hour Auto-Cleanup
Chat in real time with sub-second WebSocket delivery. Every message automatically clears after 24 hours, keeping conversations spontaneous and ephemeral.
Built for focused messaging, free from clutter
Everything you need for seamless 1-on-1 conversations, with zero unnecessary noise.
Automatic 24-Hour Removal
Messages automatically expire and purge after 24 hours via database TTL expiration. No permanent logs, no lingering history.
Real-Time WebSockets
Live bi-directional connection ensures instant message transmission and immediate delivery without page reloads or polling.
Mutual Friendship Protection
Conversations can only take place between accounts that have mutually accepted friend requests. No spam or unsolicited strangers.
Delivery Ticks & Smooth Scroll
Visual delivery checkmarks show message status, while infinite scroll upwards and a floating quick-scroll pill keep reading smooth.
