Why was my photo or profile rejected?

Every photo is reviewed before it appears on your profile, which usually takes 24–48 hours. Most photos are approved — here's what to check if yours wasn't.

Photo requirements

• Accepted formats are .jpg, .jpeg, and .png, and your profile needs at least one photo.
• Your main photo should clearly show you — recent, well-lit, and not heavily filtered.

Common reasons a photo is rejected

• Nudity, sexual, violent, or otherwise inappropriate content.
• No recognizable person, or an image that's mostly text, a logo, or a group photo where you can't be identified.
• Contact details, links, or anything that looks like an advertisement.
• Copyrighted, celebrity, or stock images that aren't you.

What to do next

Replace the photo with one that meets the guidelines above — see How do I add, edit, or delete photos? If you believe your photo was rejected by mistake, contact us and we'll take another look.
