Adjusting the visibility of your profile

Want to choose who can contact you? That’s what the contact filter is for

 

This feature, available with our subscription plans, enables you to filter the members who can contact you according to their age, if they have a photo or not, living in your country, etc.

 

Want to look at profiles without them seeing you? You can turn on incognito mode

 

This feature allows you to view profiles without generating notifications and your profile will not appear in any search results.

You will still be able send messages and likes to users you are interested in.

 

  • Mobile site/apps: you can access Incognito mode in the ‘Me’ menu
  • On a computer: click on Incognito, in the top right
