Pinterest: block and block users - how it works
This practical tip shows you how to block and block users on Pinterest.
How to block and block a user on Pinterest
Note that the Pinterest profiles are public. The blocked or blocked user can still see your pins and pin board.
- Go to the person's profile and click on the flag above the name.
- A new window opens with the question "Block this user?", Which you must confirm with "Block".
- Note: You cannot follow blocked users, send messages or interact via the pins. Of course, the reverse also applies. This person cannot perform any of these interactions either. Interactions up to now remain and may have to be deleted manually. You will still see the blocked user. The user receives no notification of the blocking and can only find out if he or she wants to perform one of the above-mentioned interactions.
How to undo the block on Pinterest
If you want to undo the blocking, proceed as follows:
- Go to the profile again.
- Click on the "Unlock" button above the profile picture.
