Pings, by default, allow someone to add a note to express their interest in a more personal way. While most people use these notes to send cute conversation starters, we can’t guarantee the content of those messages, so we give you the ability to disable Ping notes if you don’t want to receive them. This article shows you how.
Important
- We have tools in place to detect and block potentially inappropriate messages. But our automated systems aren't perfect, so we can’t guarantee no inappropriate message will ever make it through.
- If you opt out of Ping notes, you won’t be able to send Pings notes either.
- You can report any user who sends an inappropriate note.
- When you opt out of Ping notes, you can still send and receive Pings without a note.
Opt out of Ping notes
Note: When you opt out of receiving Ping notes, you won’t be able to send Ping notes either.
- Tap Settings.
- Tap App settings.
- Under Privacy and safety, enable the Opt out of notes with Pings toggle.
That’s it. Future Pings will be prevented from including notes.
Note: Any Ping note received before opting out will remain attached to the existing Pings.
