Chatup is a messenger for talking to anyone — the friends you already have, and the people you haven't met yet. TALK IN ANY LANGUAGE Turn on auto-translate in any chat and messages arrive in your language automatically. No copying, no pasting, no switching to another app. Chatup's interface is available in Korean, English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Chinese and Japanese. CHAT THE WAY YOU LIKE • Photos, GIFs, stickers and emoji • Voice messages when typing is too slow • Replies, reactions and read receipts • Group chats for everyone at once • My Notes — a private space just for you CALL FROM THE CHAT Voice and video calls are one tap away. Every call is saved in the conversation, so you can see how long you talked and which calls you missed — and call back from the same place. OPEN ROOMS Find people who care about what you care about. Gaming, music, sports, movies, travel, food, study and more. Join with a nickname instead of your real name, or create your own room in seconds and set a password if you want it private. Rooms have voice channels too, so you can drop in and talk with everyone at once. YOU STAY IN CONTROL • Join rooms under a nickname • Block, mute or report anyone • Delete your account at any time Chatup is free.
