Safe by default
What happens on velvv stays on velvv.
Safety isn't a setting you have to switch on. It's already there from the moment you open the app — so you can relax and just enjoy meeting people.
velvv is built so you can be yourself without worrying. Here's exactly how we keep your moments yours.
No fine print, no jargon. Just simple protections that work in the background, every time.
Only you and the person you're chatting with can read your messages. Not even we can see them.
If someone tries to screenshot or record your chat, view-once photo or call, we block it — and tell you.
Send a photo that can be opened just once. After they've seen it, it's gone for good.
Everyone proves they're real with a quick selfie, and our team checks. Fewer fakes, fewer bots.
One tap to block or report anyone who makes you uncomfortable. Our team looks into it fast.
Share your exact spot or just your city. You decide how much to show, and you can change it anytime.
Sometimes you just want to keep things low-key. velvv gives you the controls to disappear from the people you'd rather not run into.
Make velvv blend in on your phone. Swap the icon for something low-key so only you know what it really is.
Don't want people in your phonebook bumping into you here? Block your contacts from ever seeing your profile.
Keep nearby neighbours and locals out of your business. Stay off the map for people in your own location.
Go fully private. Only the people you choose can find you, see your photos and send you a message.
Safety isn't a setting you have to switch on. It's already there from the moment you open the app — so you can relax and just enjoy meeting people.
Get velvv and enjoy a space that's built to keep you safe and private.
