Disconnecting a User
Sometimes a connection doesn't work out, and that's completely okay. Crowdr makes it easy to disconnect someone when you're ready to move on.
How to Disconnect
- Open the Messages tab and tap into the conversation with the person you'd like to disconnect.
- Tap the menu icon (usually in the top-right corner of the conversation screen).
- Select "Disconnect" from the options.
- Confirm your choice when prompted.
That's it. The process takes just a few taps.
What Happens When You Disconnect
When you disconnect someone:
- The conversation is removed from both your Messages tab and theirs.
- Chat history is deleted for both parties -- neither of you will be able to access past messages.
- The other person is not notified. They won't receive an alert or message telling them you disconnected. The conversation will simply disappear from their list.
- You won't be connected again with this person in future games.
Disconnecting vs. Blocking
Crowdr offers both Disconnect and Block options. Here's the difference:
| Action | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Disconnect | Removes the connection and conversation. You could theoretically encounter this person again in other contexts. |
| Block | Removes the connection and prevents the person from appearing in your games, queue, or anywhere else in the app. They won't know they've been blocked. |
If someone is making you uncomfortable or behaving inappropriately, blocking is the stronger option. You can also combine it with a report.
Reporting Before Disconnecting
If the reason you're disconnecting is because of inappropriate behavior, harassment, or any violation of community guidelines, we strongly encourage you to report the user first:
- Open the conversation.
- Tap the menu icon.
- Select "Report".
- Choose a reason and provide any additional details.
- After reporting, you can then disconnect or block.
Reports are reviewed by our team and help us keep Crowdr safe for everyone. For more information, see our Safety & Privacy articles.
Can I Undo a Disconnect?
No. Disconnecting is permanent. Once you disconnect someone, the connection and conversation cannot be restored. Make sure you're certain before confirming.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the other person know I disconnected them? No. They will not receive any notification. The conversation will simply no longer appear in their Messages tab.
Can I reconnect with someone I disconnected? No. Once you've disconnected someone, you will not be paired with them again in future games.
What if someone disconnected me? If a conversation disappears from your Messages tab without explanation, the other person likely disconnected you. This is normal and part of the dating process -- don't take it personally.
Does disconnecting affect my account in any way? No. Disconnecting is a normal part of using the app and has no impact on your account standing, queue priority, or future connections.
