Report, block or just Next? A quick decision guide for momos calls
Updated
Every momos call has three exits in the controls: Next, Block and Report. They do different jobs, and picking the right one takes a second once you know the difference. If someone is making you uncomfortable right now, skip the reading: tap Report, then Block.

Tap Next when it's simply a dud
Boring, quiet, not your vibe, bad connection, in a weird mood: that's what Next is for. No report needed. Keeping reports for real rule-breaking lets reviewers spend their time on the problems that matter.
Tap Block when you just want them gone
Block is for you. Use it whenever someone bothers you, even if what they did doesn't feel serious enough to report. You don't have to explain why.
Tap Report when they break the rules
If you're unsure, report. These always deserve one.
- Nudity, sexual acts or explicit content on camera
- Anyone who looks under 18
- Hate speech, slurs or threats
- Harassment, including continuing after you said no
- Asking for money, gift cards, crypto or app payments
- Suspicious links or attempts to get your login
- Threats to share recordings or images of you
- A pre-recorded video posing as a live person
Where the buttons sit
The Report and Block buttons live in the call bar on both phone and desktop, beside Next. You don't need to end the call or open a menu first. One tap does it.
Who reviews your report
Reports are reviewed by people on the momos team, not left to an algorithm alone. Repeat offenders are banned.
Separately, momos runs automated checks for nudity and for calls with no face on camera, which may end or blur a call. Those checks help but don't catch everything, which is why your reports matter.
Serious cases: screenshots, ic3.gov and 911
momos keeps no recordings, so for blackmail, threats or fraud, take a screenshot before you leave the call. Note the time and anything they typed. Then report and block.
For extortion or money loss, also file at the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center, ic3.gov. If you're in immediate danger, call 911. For anything else you want the team to know, email hello@momos.live.

Frequently asked questions
Does momos keep a video of the call for reviewers?
No. momos keeps no footage or sound from calls. That's why screenshots and a short description help in serious cases.
Should I report someone who looks under 18?
Yes, always. momos is adults-only (18+), and under-18s are blocked at sign-in based on date of birth. If someone slips through, a report gets it reviewed.
Can a call end even if nobody reports it?
Yes. Automated checks for nudity and for no face on camera may end or blur a call on their own. They don't catch everything, so reports still matter.
Should I report someone for skipping me?
No. Skipping is a normal part of random video chat. Reports are for behavior that breaks the rules.
How do I contact momos about a safety problem?
Email hello@momos.live with the time, what happened and any screenshots. For threats or extortion, also file at ic3.gov, and call 911 in an emergency.
Adults only. Never recorded.
momos is for people 18 and older. We don't record or store calls, and report and block are always one tap away. See the safety center.
