What privacy and blocking tools do I have?

TL;DR

Settings lets you disable chats, accept chats only from friends, and hide your online status — and you can block any player to cut off chats and gifts in both directions.

Updated June 11, 2026

You decide who gets to reach you. All the controls live in the Settings screen.

Privacy toggles

  • Disable Chats — nobody can send you private messages.

  • Receive Chats Only From Friends — only confirmed friends can start a new chat with you. Existing conversations keep working.

  • Show Online Status — choose whether other players can see when you're online.

Blocking a player

Open the player's profile and tap Block User. Blocking ends the friendship and shuts down private chats and gifts in both directions — they can't reach you, and you can't reach them.

Blocked players can't send you friend requests either.

You can see and manage everyone you've blocked under Settings → Blocked Users, and unblock anytime.

Changed your mind? Unblocking takes one tap and works immediately — no questions asked.
