Hiding Profiles

Hiding Profiles

Hiding a profile removes the member from your Nearby grids. It is used primarily to fine-tune the members displayed in your Nearby grid without blocking them.

 

It is important to remember that hiding a profile does not:

  • remove it from your Favorites, if you have added it;
  • remove it from your Messages, if you are or have recently exchanged text or picture messages;
  • remove your profile from Nearby or Search grids of the member you have hidden;
  • prevent the hidden member from viewing your profile;
  • prevent the hidden member from rating their interest in meeting you;
  • prevent the hidden member from sharing their private album with you; or
  • prevent the hidden member from messaging or woofing you.

    NOTE: Hides and Blocks share the same limit and are not visually differentiated in Manage Hides/Blocks.
