Schitchat

Live only

Only things that are actually on.

Not a comment section you scroll days later. Schitchat carries the shows people watch live — reality, competitions, the big weekly episodes, awards nights — and the room only exists while the show is on air. That is the whole point: everyone in there is watching the same thing at the same moment, so the reaction is happening, not archived.

Pick what you've got on

What's live now and what's on later, the channel each one is on, and how many people are already in the room.

You get a name

butter-butt. worm-gremlin. snot-boots. Everyone gets one on the way in — no profile, no photo, no follower count to protect. Say what you actually think.

Watch the room react

Lines the room agrees with glow green, ones it turns on glow red, and the best comment of the night sticks to the top of the screen.

Inside a room

The best line of the night rises to the top.

Every comment can be thumbed up or down by anyone in the room. A line people agree with turns green. One the room turns on goes red. And whatever the room likes most gets pinned above the scroll as the favourite comment, so you see the best thing anyone has said without hunting for it.

It is fast and it is public and nobody knows who you are, which is exactly why people say the thing they are actually thinking.

Crowns

Likes follow you everywhere.

Every like you have ever been given adds up — across every room, every show, however long ago. Cross a line and a crown appears next to your name on everything you have ever written, in every room you walk into after that.

100Gold

1,000Silver

100,000Flame

1,000,000Royal

Likes only count towards a crown if you keep your tag — which takes an email and about ten seconds.

No spoilers

Everyone's at the same minute.

Rooms run on show time, not the clock. Every message is stamped with how far into the episode it was said — so if you join twenty minutes late, you see what the room said twenty minutes in, not the ending.

And because the schedule follows your own broadcast feed, the West Coast is not reading the East Coast's reaction to something that has not happened yet.

25 minutes in

25:561:00:00

Join now and the room picks up where you are. Nothing from the last half hour is hidden, and nothing from the next half hour has been said yet — because it has not happened yet.

Save your seat

Be in the room before it starts.

Tap a show that hasn't started and it goes on your home screen. Doors open fifteen minutes early with a countdown, and the room unlocks itself the second the show begins — so there's nothing to scroll past and nothing to spoil.

Nothing to sign up for. Open it and you're in.
Your own rooms. Start a private chat and share the code — nobody gets in without it.

House rules

A room full of strangers, run like one.

Schitchat is for 13 and over. Everybody is shown the rules before they say a word: don't spam the chat, and don't be a dick. Every message can be reported, anybody can be blocked, and slurs don't post at all.
