Direct messages and chats

Need to ask an organizer something before you join, or set up a rematch with last week's teammate? Send them a direct message.

Send a message

1. Open the player's profile — from a participant list, a chat, or by searching their name in Discover under Players.
2. Tap Message.
3. Write and send. The conversation is private between the two of you.

Or open Messages from the chat icon at the top of Home and tap +. That list shows the people you follow and who follow you.

Your chats

The Messages screen keeps everything in one place, with tabs for All, Unread, Games, People and Groups, and a search box for people and games. Game chats are listed for 30 days after the game.

In any chat you can reply, react, edit or delete your own messages within 15 minutes, pin a message, mention someone with @, and tap the read indicator to see who's read your message. Game links turn into live cards you can join from, and profile links open the player's profile.

Archive a conversation

Swipe left on a chat and tap Archive. It disappears from every tab, and comes back on its own if a new message arrives. Conversations can't be permanently deleted.

Notifications

Direct messages arrive as Message Notifications. Turn them off in Notification Settings to check chats on your own time, or set Quiet Hours. See Notifications.

Keep it respectful

Messages are covered by the same rules as the rest of Xsporty. If someone crosses the line, press and hold the message and tap Report, and block them from their profile — blocked players can't message you, and you can't message them. See Block and report a player.
