How do I block someone?

Open their profile, tap the three dots at the top, then Block. They can no longer message you, call you, follow you, comment on your posts or tip you.

Phone app

  1. Open the person's profile.
  2. Tap the three dots at the top.
  3. Tap Block, then Block again to confirm.

You can also block someone from:

  • A chat: tap their name at the top, tap the three dots, then Block.
  • A live stream: tap their name in the chat, then Block.
  • Message requests: open the menu on their request and tap Block.
  • A report: when you report someone, you can block them at the same time.

Desktop app, Website

  1. Open the person's profile.
  2. Click the three dots next to their name.
  3. Click Block user, then confirm.

You can also block someone from:

  • A chat: open the chat's details and click Block.
  • A live stream: click their name in the chat, then Block.
  • Message requests: click Block on their request.
  • A report: when you report a person, a post or a comment, you can block them at the same time.

What happens when you block someone

  • They can't message you or call you.
  • They can't follow you, comment on your posts or send you tips.
  • If they mention you, you don't get a notification.
  • On the website and in the latest phone app, you don't see their posts and clips, and they don't see yours: not in Home, not in Shorts, not on each other's profiles. The desktop app gets this with its next update.
  • Vergr doesn't send them a notification.

Unblock someone

Phone app

  1. Open the menu and tap Settings, then Privacy.
  2. Tap Blocked users.
  3. Tap Unblock next to their name.

Desktop app, Website

  1. Open Settings and click Privacy.
  2. Click Blocked users.
  3. Click Unblock next to their name.

Blocking doesn't remove anything they already sent you. If they broke the rules, report it too so our moderators can look at it.
