How to report someone on video chat

Every reputable platform has a report option. Here is how to use it effectively.

During the chat

Use the report or flag button, usually next to skip
Choose the most accurate reason
Skip or end the chat

Save evidence

Note the time and any username
Take a screenshot if it is safe and legal where you live

Serious cases

If a minor seems involved, or you are threatened or blackmailed, contact your local police and report to the platform. In the US you can also report to the NCMEC CyberTipline.

Key takeaways

Check costs and limits before sharing payment details.
Protect personal information and assume you can be recorded.
Use report and block tools; they protect other users too.
Test your camera and microphone before your first chat.

Before your next chat

Run our free camera and microphone test so you know your setup works, open the platform's pricing page so there are no surprises, and find the report button before you press start. If you are still choosing a platform, the directory and side-by-side comparisons show sourced details on guest access, costs and gender filters for each service, with the date we checked them.

Remember that prices, filters and rules on video chat platforms change often. When a platform's own pages disagree with what you read anywhere else, including here, the platform's current terms are what apply to you.
