Flybi community guidelines
Last updated: 2026-10-04
Flybi is for meeting people around you through things you actually care about. These guidelines say what is not allowed, what happens when something breaks a rule, and how to tell us we got it wrong. They apply to everything you put into the app: your display name, your bio, your photos, your tags and what you write in chat.
They are part of the Terms of Service (Section 4).
1. What is allowed — said plainly, so nobody guesses
Most of what people worry about is fine. In particular:
- Alcohol and drinking are allowed. A beer in your hand, a glass of wine, a drinking game with friends — none of that breaks a rule here. Our automatic photo check sometimes marks such photos, because the classifier reads drinking as "adult". The check's opinion is not a rule. A photo comes down only when a person can point to a rule it breaks.
- Swimwear, gym photos, beaches and costumes are allowed. So are tattoos, piercings, smoking, and photos taken in a bar or a club.
- Your interests are yours. Tags about anything legal are welcome, however niche.
- Swearing is allowed. Nothing you write is refused because of its words: your name, bio, tags and room names always save. Swearing at someone to harass them is still harassment, and a person judges that when it is reported.
2. What is not allowed
- Sexually explicit content. Nudity, sexual acts, or photos and text meant to be pornographic. Flybi is not a place for that, and the app stores do not allow it in any app.
- Anything involving a minor sexually. There is no threshold and no second chance here: it is reported to the authorities and the account is removed. See Child Safety Standards.
- Real violence, gore, or content that glorifies either.
- Harassment, threats, hate, or targeting a person or a group because of who they are.
- Someone else's photo passed off as yours, impersonation, or a profile built to deceive.
- Spam, scams, and selling. Flybi is not a marketplace or a lead list.
- Using Flybi under 18. It is an adults-only app.
3. What leads to what
We would rather explain than punish. No text is refused, and reports are judged by people: every decision that you broke a rule is made by a person. What is automatic is the detection, a setting that changes what you see, and a few temporary measures while a person looks. One of those can pause an account: when reports, together with the language in what that person has written, reach a threshold. A person then reviews the pause.
| What happened | What follows |
|---|---|
| Enough different people report one photo | That photo is temporarily hidden while a person looks at it. Nothing happens to your account, and the photo comes back if the report was wrong. |
| A person reviews it and agrees it breaks a rule | The photo is removed, and you are told which rule, in the app. |
| Enough different people report the name or description of one of your tags | That part is temporarily hidden while a person looks at it: the description comes off the tag, or, for a name, the tag is shown to nobody but you. You see a note on the tag. Nothing happens to your account or to anyone else's tag with the same word, and it comes back if the report was wrong. If a person agrees it breaks a rule, it stays hidden and you are told which rule. |
| A photo link that does not point at a photo you uploaded here | The link is removed automatically. That is about where the link points, not about what the photo shows — upload the photo in the app instead. |
| A threat or a slur in someone else's name, bio, tags or room name | With Hide offensive language on, you see those words as ******. It is on unless you switch it off, under Profile → Settings → Privacy & legal. Swearing always shows, and your own text always shows to you as you wrote it. |
| Text that breaks a rule, anywhere | If someone reports it, a person decides. If it breaks a rule, it is removed and you are told which rule. |
| Enough different people report your account within a short time, never fewer than two | Your account is paused automatically while a person looks at it. You can still sign in, see why and contest it. Nothing is deleted, and only a person lifts it. |
| Someone reports your account, and what you have written publicly, or messages of yours that were already reported, contains a threat, a slur or a hostile statement | That language counts toward the reports above. A threat with one report is enough to pause the account. Slurs and hostile statements count as extra reports, but on their own they never pause an account that fewer than two people reported. Swearing never counts, and chats nobody reported are never read for this. |
| Repeated or serious breaches | A cooldown: your account is paused for a stated number of days. You can sign in and see why and when it ends, and contest it, but not use the app until then. It ends by itself. |
| Severe or repeated breaches after that | A ban. Your account is paused until a person has reviewed it. You can still sign in, see why and contest it; nothing lifts it but us. |
| Anything involving a minor sexually | Immediate removal and a report to the authorities. |
We do not publish how fast a review happens, because we will not promise a speed we cannot keep. What we will say is that every report reaches a person, and that every automatic step above is followed by a person's decision.
4. Reporting something
- A photo: open the photo and use the flag on the photo itself. That reports the photo, and nothing else.
- A person: the Report action on their profile — the ⋮ menu at the top of their full profile, or the Report button on the card that opens when you tap them — and the same action in a chat with them.
- A room: the ⋮ menu in the room. A room is reported for what the room is, in practice its name; the person who made it is accountable for it, but is not accused of anything by that report.
Reporting is anonymous to the person you report: they are never told who reported them. Reports from an account whose reports keep turning out to be unfounded stop counting toward anything automatic — they are still read.
You can also block anyone, which removes them from your feed and stops them contacting you, whatever we decide about a report.
5. If you think we got it wrong
Write to support@flybi.app. Tell us what was removed or restricted and why you think it was wrong; a person reads every message sent there and will look at the decision again. When something of yours is removed or hidden, the app tells you where the photo or the text was, so you know what to write about.
Under the EU Digital Services Act you also keep the right to take the matter to a court, whatever we decide.
