Eclipse - Chat Rooms

After using this app for about a year, I’ve become increasingly disappointed with how it’s managed. During that time, there have been multiple changes in administrators, and the rules, expectations, and enforcement have been inconsistent. Although updated community guidance was published in May 2026, my experience has been that moderation remains unpredictable and lacks transparency. Concerns about inconsistent enforcement are often dismissed as “causing drama,” and users may be threatened with suspension or bans for raising them. In my experience, long-time users appear to receive more favorable treatment than newer members. While the app contains public, PG-rated chat rooms, much of the activity takes place in private XXX rooms. In those private spaces, I have observed extreme sexually explicit text, images, voice messages, and other NSFW content being shared despite the app’s stated policies. I have also seen administrators and long-time users participating in or encouraging that environment. Because private rooms cannot be reported through the app, and urls are masked, app admins have their own rooms even… and there is little accountability for what occurs there as well as no Terms of Service Round it. I also found it concerning that payments for avatars and profile enhancements are handled through Venmo rather than the App Store’s payment system. Based on my experience, the app presented itself as a general social chat platform, but the toxic community culture and moderation did not match those expectations. It’s a NSFW friends club masking as a chat app.

Eclipse is a great place to find fun and have a wonderful chat experience. The admin team truly tries to keep the space happy and fun.
