Blocking someone and your blocked list

How do I block someone?

1. Open the person's profile.
2. Tap the options (three dots) menu on the profile.
3. Choose Block.

You can also block someone from a chat's options on the Messages screen.

What happens when you block

• Any follows between you are removed.
• Neither of you can send messages; the chat is hidden from your list.
• You can't see each other's profiles; the profile shows "This profile is unavailable".
• You can't follow each other again or comment on each other's books and posts.

A block works both ways: you also can't interact with someone who has blocked you. The other person isn't notified that they've been blocked.

Removing a block

1. Open Settings › Blocked Users.
2. Tap Unblock next to the person.

Once unblocked, they can see your profile again. Follows removed earlier don't come back; you can follow them again if you want.

Good to know

• Official ARWY accounts (@arwy and @arwydestek) can't be blocked.
• If someone is bothering you, you can report them as well as blocking. See Reporting.
