Block someone once,
never see them again.
Bots and unwanted behavior are the biggest reason people don't trust random chat apps. Here's exactly what happens, in plain terms, when you report or block someone on Meowdy, no vague promises.
What actually happens, step by step
Real behavior, not a policy document. This is what the app does.
Report takes one tap, right from the chat
See something off? Tap report, pick a reason (harassment, spam, inappropriate content, someone who looks underage, or something else), and add details if you want. No leaving the chat, no forms to hunt for.
Reporting someone blocks them too, automatically
You don't have to remember to block separately. The moment you report someone, they're also blocked. It's one action, not two.
A block is checked every time you're matched
Blocking isn't just a note we file away. Every time you or they look for a new match, that block is checked, so the two of you simply can't be paired together again.
Trying to swap contact info gets caught
If someone tries to send a phone number, email, or a handle for another app in an unencrypted message, it's stopped before it sends. That's often the first move people make when they're trying to take things somewhere unsafe, and it doesn't get through quietly.
Reporting and blocking, side by side
Report & block
- Ends the chat right away
- Blocks that person permanently, going forward
- Saves what you reported so it can be looked into
- Takes one tap from inside the chat
What blocking guarantees
- You will never be matched with them again
- This is checked live, every single time either of you looks for a match
- Works whether you're signed in or chatting as a guest
- There's nothing they can do on their end to get around it
