What is blocking?
The block feature allows you to moderate who can interact with you on an individual user basis.
How does blocking impact my Clubhouse Experience?
When you block another user on Clubhouse:
- You won’t be able to add that user as a friend - if they’re already friended, they will be unfriended (but they won’t be notified about that, unless you friend them again).
- The user will still be able to see your profile.
- You won’t see when blocked people add you as a friend.
- Blocked users can’t see or join new chats you’ve created.
- Other users can’t invite users who are on your blocked list to chats you’ve created.
- Blocked users will not be able to see or join any House conversations you create or moderate.
- You will see a warning before entering a House conversation someone you’ve blocked is already in.
- If you’re in a conversation, but you didn’t create it, you won’t be alerted to a blocked user also entering that room.
- Blocked users will not be able to see which users have blocked them.

2. Tap the “...” at the top right of their profile.
3. Tap Block.
How can I see who I’ve blocked?

How does Blocking work in a House?
House members can't invite users they have blocked or that they have been blocked by to join a House. House members can invite users who are blocked by other House members.
When a member visits the House, they can see which members they have blocked from the members page. Content from blocked users will not be hidden within the House.
Users who have been blocked by House Admins cannot be invited to the House. The inviter will receive a message that says, "You can't add this user to this house right now."
If someone is made a House Admin but there are members existing within the House who have been blocked by that new House admin, those members will not automatically be removed.
