Reporting and blocking

You can report any profile, post, comment, message, story, business review, business card or anything in someone's Space from its menu. People without an account can report a shared business card from its page. We review every report, act on illegal content as fast as we can, and tell you what we decided.

If someone shares an intimate photo of you without your permission, report it with "Intimate photo of me, shared without my permission" (you can also report it for someone who asked you to). We hide it straight away while a person checks it and decide within 48 hours. If it's removed, the same photo can't be posted again. If we don't remove it, you can ask for a second look once, in Settings → My reports. Blocking is instant and the person isn't told. If you think we got a decision about you wrong, you can appeal in the app within 14 days. A person reviews every appeal, usually within 2 working days, and we tell you the outcome. For any other complaint about how we keep Cosmic QR safe, email support@cosmicqr.co.uk.

Out now, Go out and meeting up

Out now and Go out plans only ever show the words you type, never your live location. Only connections you've made Friends see them, and you can end them with one tap. Meet new people in public places and tell a friend where you're going.

Scanning other QR codes

We check links before they open and warn you about ones that look unsafe, but no check is perfect. Never enter card details or passwords on a page you reached from a sticker or poster.

If someone is in danger, call 999.
