Community Guidelines

Effective date: 11 October 2026

One Day World gives everyone one message a day to share with the whole world. These guidelines keep it a place people want to come back to.

Be kind

Write something you would be happy for anyone, anywhere, to read. Disagreement is fine. Cruelty is not.

Not allowed

• Hate. Attacks on people for their religion, race, ethnicity, nationality, caste, gender, sexual orientation, disability or any similar trait.
• Harassment and threats. Bullying, insults aimed at a person, threats of violence, or wishing harm on anyone.
• Sexual content. Sexual or sexually suggestive messages of any kind. Anything sexualising minors leads to an immediate ban and a report to the authorities.
• Violence and extremism. Praising, promoting or supporting violence, terrorism or violent groups.
• Ads and spam. Advertising, promotions, links, website names, social media handles, phone numbers, emails, or repeated nonsense.
• Personal information. Sharing anyone's private details, such as their address, phone number or workplace.
• Impersonation. Pretending to be another person, a public figure or an organisation.
• Illegal content. Anything that breaks the law, including selling drugs or weapons.
• Self-harm promotion. Encouraging suicide or self-harm. If you are struggling, please reach out to someone you trust or a local helpline.

Names

You choose your display name once when you first sign in. It must follow these guidelines too. Names that use the name of God or a holy title (for example Allah), and names that look like the app or its team, are not allowed. You can change your name 7 days after signing up, and then once every 14 days. Verified accounts keep their name.

How enforcement works

Every message is checked automatically before it appears. If a message is held back, you will see why and can edit it. It will not use up your daily message.

When someone reports a message and we confirm it breaks these guidelines:

• 1st time: the message is removed and you get a warning not to repeat it.
• 2nd time: the message is removed and you get a final warning.
• 3rd time: you cannot post for 24 hours.
• 4th time: you cannot post for 7 days.
• 5th time: you cannot post for 30 days.
• 6th time: your account and device are banned from posting for good.

Severe violations, such as threats of violence or anything sexualising minors, lead to an immediate permanent ban. Reports are reviewed automatically against these guidelines; anything unclear is decided by a person. You see a notice in the app each time, and you can appeal any decision once, within 30 days, from the app. A person reviews every appeal.

See something wrong?

Tap the menu on any message to report it or block the person. You can manage blocked people from the Account page. To appeal a decision, open Account, then Account standing, in the app, or email support@onday.world.
