How do I block a player or report a rude name?

Press Block this player in the lobby or after a game, and you won’t see each other again. Press Report a name if a name is rude or has contact details in it. You can also hide yourself from the lobby.

Step by step

  1. To block: press Block this player next to their name in the lobby, or after your game.
  2. To report a name: press Report a name (or Report their name) and choose a reason.
  3. To be left alone: in the lobby options, choose “Hide me from the lobby” or “Don’t let other players challenge me”.
  4. After you press No thanks to a challenge, that player has to wait before asking again.

Questions and fixes

What happens to a reported name?

When several different players report the same name, it is changed to a safe random name straight away.

Someone asked for my details

Never share your real name, school, address or any contact details. Block the player and report their name. Tell a grown-up you trust.
