2. Go to Messages and open the conversation with the person.
3. Press and hold the message you want to report.
4. Tap Report message.
5. Choose the reason that best matches the issue.
6. Add extra context if it helps Idle understand what happened.
7. Submit the report.

Report a meet

Block a user

1. Open the person's profile or your message thread with them.
