• To start a chat:
  Ensure you're part of the group. Once you join, the chat function becomes available for you to initiate messages with other group members.

4. Customize Your Privacy and Control Settings

Gold Star Pro lets you take control of your privacy, with easy options to limit which groups you interact with or to block unwanted messages. Here’s how to take full control:

Disabling Chats for Specific Groups

If there are groups where you’d prefer not to receive messages, you can easily disable chat for them.

  3. Navigate to Community Chat settings.

  4. Select the groups you wish to mute or disable, and simply toggle off chat for those groups.

Keeping your inbox free of spam or unwanted conversations is simple with the blocking feature. With just a few steps, you can block any user and keep your direct messages (DMs) clean and spam-free.

• Steps to block a user:

  1. Open the chat with the user you want to block.

  2. Tap on their profile.
