Online statuses & profile states (dots)

Online status is determined based on when a profile was last active (exchanging messages, browsing profiles, etc.)

 

Online Statuses

Online (green dot) – Active within the last 2 hours

Recently Online (orange dot) – Active 2-24 hours ago

Inactive (gray dot) – Active more than 24 hours ago on iOS

Offline (no dot) – The member has manually taken their profile offline (Settings > Go Offline)

 

Profile States

In addition to online status, there are three different profile states that may appear within an online status indicator:

New Member (leaf icon) – The user has joined SCRUFF within the last 2 weeks

Traveling (airplane icon) – The user is currently traveling and is not a native of the current city

Recently Online (clock icon in contrast mode) – The user was active 2-24 hours ago

 

Offline profiles

Offline profiles can browse the mains grids; however, all chat, woof, and album unlock functions are disabled. You must go back online to interact with a profile.

When a member takes their profile offline:
