Codychats.com is now running on Codychat v11, the latest version of the platform behind the site. If you've used Codychats before, the room list and the way you sign in will feel familiar — but a lot has changed under the hood and in the toolbar. This post is a plain-language rundown of what's new, so you know what to look for the next time you open a room.
Group voice and video calls, not just 1-on-1
Codychats already supported private voice and video calls between two people. Codychat v11 adds group audio calls and group video calls, so a whole room or group chat can jump on a call together instead of typing everything out. Calls run on a real-time video engine built for low latency, so audio and video stay in sync even with several participants at once.
Gifts, stickers, and searchable GIFs
Chat on Codychats has always had emoticons for quick reactions, plus a catalogue of virtual gifts — things like roses, diamonds, teddy bears, and crowns — that members can send each other during a conversation. Codychat v11 adds a built-in GIF search powered by Giphy, so you can find and send a GIF from inside the chat box without leaving the room or pasting a link.
A leaderboard that rewards active chatters
Codychat v11 introduces a ranking and leaderboard system. Activity in rooms — messages, gifts sent and received, and overall engagement — feeds into a score, and the most active members show up on the leaderboard. It's a small addition, but it gives regulars a reason to come back beyond just the conversation itself.
Faster, more reliable real-time messaging
Message delivery on Codychat v11 is backed by an in-memory data layer that keeps rooms responsive even when a lot of people are typing at once. In practice, this means fewer delays between sending a message and seeing it appear for everyone else in the room, especially in busier public rooms.
Tighter moderation and account safety
Codychat v11 keeps the moderation basics that Codychats has always had — captcha on sign-up, one-time-code (OTP) email verification for accounts, and dedicated pages for banned or kicked users — and tightens them up. Room owners and moderators still have direct control over who stays and who goes, without needing to file a support ticket for routine issues.
Multi-language interface
The interface itself can now be shown in multiple languages, so Codychats is easier to use for members who aren't reading it in English. Guests and members can pick the language they're most comfortable with without it affecting which rooms they can join.
None of these changes affect how guest access works. You can still open most public rooms on Codychats.com with just a username — no account, no email, no download.
What this means if you're already a member
Nothing you need to do. Existing accounts, groups, and message history carry over as-is. The new call buttons, gift tray, GIF search, and leaderboard link simply appear in the interface the next time you visit. If you're new here, this is also a good time to try it — you're getting Codychats in its most complete form to date.
