Write the line. A cartoon cockroach with attitude turns to the camera and says it out loud, lip-synced, in whatever language you typed. Vertical video, ready to drop in the group chat.
Roachy is on Google Play. The iPhone version is coming soon to the App Store.

Cockroach video ideas, by theme
A weekly or yearly subscription gives you 2 videos a day, up to 30 a month, and your daily allowance refreshes on its own. Current prices are shown in the app.
Open Roachy, tap Create, type what the roach should say (and where, if you like) or tap one of the ready-made ideas, then tap Create again. The video is rendered on our servers and you get a notification when it's ready. Full walkthrough in the guide.
Roachy (also called Roachy AI or the Roachy app) is a mobile app that turns one typed line into a short video of a talking cartoon cockroach; its full store name is Roachy: AI Talking Cockroach. The Android app is on Google Play and the iPhone app is coming soon to the App Store. It is made by Ginowl, an independent developer in Türkiye, and is not related to other apps, games or chat characters that share the name.
Whichever one you type in. Turkish in, Turkish out; English in, English out; there's no setting for it. The app language you pick on first launch (11 languages) only changes the menus and the ready-made ideas.
Usually seconds to about a minute. You don't have to keep the app open; a notification tells you when it's done.
The app is a free download, but creating videos needs a subscription (weekly or yearly, no free trial). It includes 2 videos a day, up to 30 a month.
Yes. Write each line as “Who: what they say” and two roaches take turns in the same video. See two roaches talking.
5 to 10 seconds, set automatically from your lines. Vertical (9:16) by default, or horizontal (16:9) if you pick it. Every video costs one allowance whatever you choose.
They stay in My Videos. Save any of them to your phone's gallery or share them whenever you like. Videos are also shown anonymously on Discover unless you hide them.
Roachy is for users 18 and older. Videos are generated by AI and may not always turn out as expected; you can report a result with one tap.
Almost. The roach says your words exactly as typed, in your language. Sexual content and nudity are blocked before generation, and the AI provider's own moderation can refuse a line, in which case nothing is rendered. Profanity isn't filtered, which is one reason the app is 18+. Every character becomes a cartoon roach, so it can't be made to look like a real person.
