Safety

Updated 2026-11-09

The app is built for people aged 16 and over who want to meet at the field, not in the phone. That is why a lot is missing on purpose.

What is not in the app

• Chat or private messages. The only text players write is a game's title and description, and even that may not contain contact details. The arrangement is simple: field, time, number of players. You meet there.
• Photos. Everyone has a nickname and a drawn avatar. Nobody sees your face, your name or your age more precisely than in years.
• Location. The app never stores or sends where you are. Fields have coordinates, people have a roughly one-kilometre area they pick themselves.
• Ratings, leaderboards, following. No stars and no public scores.

What you can always do

• Report a game or a player right from the game: the three dots top right, or a tap on a player in the list. We read reports by hand.
• Block a player. Their games stop showing for you. The blocked list is in your profile and can be changed any time.
• Leave a game up to its start, delete your account in two taps in your profile.

Reliability without fees

The only "penalty" in the app is private: after a game the organizer can mark who did not show up. Only the marked player sees it. When it repeats, joining games is paused for a while. Nobody ever sees anyone else's marks or counts.

For parents

Games take place at public fields, at times the player sees in advance, with an age range set by the organizer who must be inside it. The app collects no location, no photos and no messages. Questions or concerns go to info@whoplays.live.
